As it happens its not on sale in ireland, but after seeing this people might want it and ,the color is outstanding and of course its running on the Windows Phone 8 platform.
This particular model fits between the 820 and 620 as regards to pricing and has a great spec.

Last week we brought you news that 3 ireland may be stocking the nokia lumia,since the 800, 3 ireland have not sold a nokia lumia device and the outcry from its customers is widespread across many irish forums in ireland as to the absence of the nokia lumia range,whilst 3 had other models of windows phone present.
We have been sent in some information as to further believe 3 will stock 3 lumia handsets,which are the 520/925 and 1020.
So what do you think,Is this a good sign? We think so and this is a welcome move.
Last month, we launched a new series where people tell about their most beloved Nokia phones ever. Smartphone photographer/author Patrick Walsh’s stories of Snake addiction on the Nokia 3210 and flying to New York just to get the Nokia N95 left us longing for more, so here comes episode 2. This time up, it’s one of Europe’s top Nokia fans, blogger and support guru Jim O’Brien, a man who’s owned a whopping 115 Nokia phones! Over to you, Jim.
The Nokia 7650 (2001)
Why did you get it?
It was awe inspiring, the first Nokia phone with a camera.
What did you love about it?
It set the pace for others. They tried to catch up, but they couldn’t. When other camera phones came on the market, I could still say I had the better phone.
What happened to it?
Today I still have that phone.
The Nokia N92 (2005)
Why did you get it?
I just loved it.
What did you love about it?
The N92 is my pride and joy! The quirky design, the way you could fold it, etc. It was amazing… the speakers were also mind-blowing back then.
What happened to it?
I still have it, I will never sell it. I’ve been offered silly money for it and still say no thanks.
The Nokia N81 8GB (2007)
Why did you get it?
It brought gaming to a new level on a mobile device.
What did you love about it?
It had outstanding design and the sound that came from the dual speakers was superb and it was just well built and looked great.
What happened to it?
I also still have it.
The Nokia 3230 (2004)
Why did you get it?
It was great, like a little computer in those days.
What did you love about it?
The candy bar form factor, nice design. It felt solid and the keypad was great. I also loved the Navi key in the middle, which was very handy. Even with its MMC slot the phone did not hold much, but you could work around that.
What happened to it?
The one I have now isn’t the actual one I owned, but one I was delighted to receive from the Nokia Support Discussions forum. It’s just like new… not a mark on it.
The Nokia Lumia 1020 (2013)
Why did you get it?
One word: Wow! This is the phone of the decade. I own all the Lumias and I keep asking if they can get any better, but they do. This is just a killer device.
What did you love about it?
It feels great in your hand, very solid. The yellow makes a statement, it’s fast and fluid. The weight of the 1020 is perfect, neither too heavy nor too light. I remember when I had the yellow 920 and people complained about weight, it’s not an issue here. This is the phone to have.
I was never a fan of photography, never liked using a separate camera. I’ve always preferred my Nokia devices and each time they get better. The 1020, like the 925, 920, 808, and of course all before these, have given others something to think about regarding mobile phone camera innovation. It just gets better and I love it. So, no, I don’t have a standalone camera, because my Nokia phone just does all a standalone camera can and more.
What happened to it?
Nothing happens to my devices! I keep them all LOL.
Well, Jim loves a totally different bunch of devices than Patrick, which just goes to show that we pick our phones according to our personalities. We wonder which device will be the first one to get a second vote… stay tuned, and while waiting for the next episode, let us know which phones make your own personal list! Do any of the above have a special place in your heart?

We have heard today and seen evidence that the nokia lumia 520/925/1020 will be coming to 3 ireland.
The status of the the three handsets is currenly filed under TBC as regards to the release date.No pricing or anything else has been detailed only other than TO BE CONFIRMED for release date.
We have also heard through reliable sources that several stores have indeed said yes to the 925 so this is adding to the true speculation of the info seen.
Has 3 ireland finally said yes to nokia lumia,or is it just due to the takeover of 02 or is it the success of nokia lumia sales in the uk alone,where 3 UK sell nokia lumia, which has been impressive over the last few months?
You tell us! We will update this story shortly .

Nokia devices are jam packed with such an astounding array of features that it’s hardly surprising we sometimes need a helping hand to get the most out of them. Fortunately, there’s one place online where you can get all the advice you need and more. Take a bow,Nokia Support Discussions! This incredible web community is manned by a crack team of volunteers, the unsung super heroes of Nokia Care. Unsung, that is, until now.
To shine a light on the amazing work the entire community does, we asked Community Manager Wayne Spillett to profile the five best mobile masterminds. Over to you, Wayne.
In the beginning…
I first joined Discussions as a moderator back in August 2007 when our English community was just under two years old, and spent four years running the moderator team before relocating to Nokia’s Finnish homeland and becoming Community Manager in 2011. It has been a fun-packed six years so far, it is a wonderful community with its daily dose of drama and intrigue, and in that time I’ve met and got to know literally hundreds of great characters.
A community of super heroes
When Nokia Connects asked me to pick the top stars that have made super contributions to community over the years, narrowing down the list of potential candidates from three digits to just five was a real challenge. Honourable mentions go to Sapporobaby, our resident agent from the U.S. State Dept., imprisoned these many years in Helsinki and desperately trying to escape to warmer climes, everybody’s favourite school headmistress Patriciaanne3 who was the real heart and soul of the community during her time with us and who is now enjoying her retirement, and Radical24 – the hip Illinois chick with a real passion for all things mobile. And with only a little further ado to give a proud salute to all those who are not here but who are nonetheless fantastic, here go the BIG FIVE…
Psychomania – The King of the support forum.
Mobile Overlord
Psychomania is the undisputed top-man of Discussions, since joining the community a few months before I arrived on the scene he has racked up an incredible 27,000 posts, been awarded kudos by our members more than 6700 times and authored more than 1500 accepted solutions. Twice already we have had to introduce extra ranks in our community because he had so far surpassed the requirements for the top rank of the time! Psychomania lives in northern England with his wife and his cats Robbie and Kylie; and when not sharing his incredible expertise on all things Nokia with our Discussions community he works as a graphic designer.
CJLim aka
Mobile Overlord
Our resident global businessman, also with us since 2007, is originally from Malaysia but lives and works in Ireland where he enjoys the country’s famous “Black Stuff” almost as much as he loves Nokia’s award-winning “Yellow Stuff”! When not jet-setting around the world, structural engineer and IT manager CJLim is a great mobile all-rounder, and long-time expert on Nokia’s award-winning smartphones and, as you might expect from somebody who spends so much time travelling, all things maps and navigation.
Adrianhughes
Mobile Sensei
A truly global guy, Adrianhughes is an Australian whose family tree has roots in both Europe and Asia-Pacific. A member of Discussions since September 2008, Adrian has an impressive back-catalogue of phones, mainly (we are happy and proud to say) Nokias. Like the others here, self-employed Adrian is pretty prolific when it comes to helping Nokia Customers get the most of their phones, and he has been one of the top Discussions members when it comes to Supporting or fantastic new Lumia range. Adrian became a father earlier this year, so I’m sure everyone will join me in wishing him the heartiest congratulations!
Scoobyman
Mobile Sensei
Another of our superstars who has been with us some a number of years is Scoobyman, a carer from Wales who cares for Nokia Customers at Discussions with immense attention to detail and a keen knowledge of all Nokia products large and small. Scoobyman is also one of our top-rated experts in the field of maps and navigation.
Ceroberts75
Mobile Guru
Californian businessman ceroberts75 joined Discussions back in the mists of time in 2006, and has worked his way through Nokia’s history of smartphones from the earliest Symbians, through our Linux-based N900 and N9, finally arriving at our award-winning Lumia range. We’re happy to say that Ceroberts75, whilst initially sceptical about our Lumia products, is now a top Lumia evangelist – we’ve even heard stories of him visiting retailers and operator stores in the Sunshine State and teaching them a thing or two about Lumia!
If you’d like to get to know these five amazing guys better or simply want to make use of their amazing mobile knowledge, why not head over to Nokia Support Discussions now
A big thanks to wayne who is the community manager and has been so kind to us.
I wish to say well done and congratulations to all,im also a member here to where ive been for the last fews years,its a great place to be and some great people to be found. You can find me there at jimmy ireland.
