Lumia(s) are just named as smartphones but nothing to be called as smart. My advice, go for android phone preferably Samsung.

If you are a girl and just want, say good-looking UI, want to use your phone just as a normal phone, don't want to mess with lots of apps/games, etc you can go for the Lumia 510. Else its not advice able as the main issue with Windows Phone is that its appsotre is nowhere as good as Android. Go for the Sony Xperia Tipo or a HTC Explorer. The only thing good with a Lumia is its UI, if you like it.

I have this phone! It did take some getting used to as I came from owning an Android before, but one you unlock it's potential it's a very good phone.

The screens are easy to navigate and the marketplace is expanding all the time; you have the usual Facebook/Twitter apps, but then you have Nokias amazing sat Nav called Nokia Drive which is free.

Nokia Lumia is Best Because -
It's time for the Nokia Lumia 510 to get out of hiding and step into the light - it's an entry-level Windows Phone smartphone, which has some pretty decent specs. Starting with a 4" WVGA TFT screen, the Lumia 510 takes the lead on the Lumia 610, which has a 3.7" screen.
The Lumia 510 also features a 5MP autofocus camera with VGA video recording (matching the 610). Camera geeks might also want to know that the camera has an f/2.4 aperture and wide angle 28mm focal length (in 35mm equiv.).
So far, so good. The Lumia 510 is powered by a Snapdragon S1 processor, though we still don't know the exact specs (it's more than likely it uses the same Cortex-A5 CPU as the 610).

The phone has only 256MB of RAM, which will probably limit app compatibility as we've seen with the Lumia 610. The internal storage is also limited - 4GB, non-expandable - which is another limitation to consider. Every Windows Phone comes with 7GB of free cloud storage on SkyDrive though this can be of little help when your internal storage fills up.
The Nokia Lumia 510 comes with Nokia's proprietary GPS-navigation apps Nokia Maps and Nokia Drive.
On the connectivity side, there's 2G and 3G with HSDPA, Wi-Fi b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1.
There's no NFC on the Lumia 510, at least not on this model. The original 610 didn't have it at first too, but then Nokia launched the Orange-exclusive Lumia 610 NFC.
The Lumia 510 will run Windows Phone 7.5 at launch and will be updated to 7.8 as soon as it's ready.
Speaking of launch, the Nokia Lumia 510 will first go on sale in China and India in November, then move to the Asia-Pacific and South America. Nokia estimates the phone will cost $200 before taxes and subsidies.
At this price point, current Android smartphones will have a really hard time competing with the Lumia 510's winning combo of a 4-inch screen, 1GHz CPU, 5MP wide angle camera plus offline

Price - $200

Best Luck.

get the lumia 510
its way better than any other phone at that price
it feels premium and high end in your hand
the screen is a 4" screen with Nokia clear black display so that means colors and text look amazing on it and that also means you can easily see in direct sunlight so you won't have to higher the screen brightness
the camera is a 5 megapixle camera which takes amazing photos and videos and it also has the Nokia added features like group shot,panorama shot and burst shot
what group shot allows you to do is to capture the perfect moment so for example if you are taking a photo of 2 people and you blink you will be able to rewind the time till when they were still smiling
the web browser is extremely good and very fast
the phone handles mail in a very good way
you've got a huge number of high quality apps and you also got the Nokia added free exclusive apps like Nokia drive,Nokia maps,Nokia city,Nokia lens,Nokia beta,Nokia music,Nokia creative studio,espn,espn radio,CNN,viber HD. and many more
battery life on the phone is very good and would easily get you through a full day of heavy use on a full charge
the whole os on the phone is amazing and it runs smooth and fast and it's also faster in everyday use than iOS and android
and about the placing songs and videos on the phone yeh there is a way
zune is easy to use though
hope I helped
tell me if you decided to get it
