Sadly my lovely Lumia 1520 has gone to be repaired with Nokia and won't be back for a few weeks. So today I went out and got a unlocked, country varient Lumia 635 for £99. I picked this phone as I need 4G, a windows phone with 8.1 and something cheap. 

I'm just loading it up now and installing the apps but my initial view, it is small, very small. Screen isn't a scratch on the 1520 and some other small things. However this is expected as they are phones for very different markets. One bonus, its very fast and runs just as well as my 1520, but i've only just started to load it up. 

If you want I can give you my review/thoughts on the 635 as time goes on...

Would love to read a review.

I use a Nokia Lumia 520 after reviewing the 1020.

No worries. I will post something on Monday which will include an intial, 24 & 48 hour review. Once that is done I may do a review with 8.1 update 1 on it too?

 

24 hours in though, I'm impressed with this little bugger but it does have its flaws.

That sounds amazing @L_W_Ward! We'd love to read that review, I'm sure it will be very useful for Lumia-Nokia users. Great initiative!

Small is subjective. Surely it feels small because you're used to a great honking 6" screen tongue

 

I consider the 520 big, and from shops the 630 pretty darn big.
