After using this phone for quite a week or two, here are some things that I have to list down.

(+):
- It's so damn cheap! At first, I was a bit sceptical that it would be a good phone for my everyday use xD. But if you're just like me (who use it mainly for facebook, twitter, kakao, whatsapp, line, wechat) then it is more than enough.
- It's quite durable, I tried dropping it quite a few times, no crack on the casing, nothing. Of course, I don't do the extreme drop tests as I still wanna use the phone, lol.
- It is responsive, no slow loading, lol.

(-):
- I noticed that battery life is so very bad. It's even worst than my 3 year old 3GS. I only use WiFi, FYI, and on my old 3GS I can use for a day plus a bit. For this, I have to charge twice a day usually, on some days (like today where I am busy studying) I charge it once a day.
- Multitasking is annoying, coming from BlackBerry (which has the best multitasking ever) and iPhone (quite close, but not as good as BlackBerry's). The system will close down apps that I don't use for quite a while -__-" I am the kind of person who don't like to be restricted, lol.
- No instagram! D:

Yes, and it works on my phone. If the screen is locked, touch the Bing button makes it shake but nothing else happens. I keep my phone in a pouch too.

I sense that battery life is reasonable if relying on WiFi only with data service off.

As soon as I started using mine outdoors with data on, the battery life plummeted.

Currently, I set Battery Saver On, Display Brightness Low and 2G network (data on), yet the phone cannot stay alive 24 hours. Use 3G data and it just gets worse. Everything else is switched off (GPS, bluefoot, WiFi, email sync).

Apart from that, the Lumia 620 is a beautiful piece of hardware with a compact solid feel, great display, loud sound, super fast GPS, and a classy-looking UI.

Longest my phone can tahan 3 days and 1 hour, averaging 2 days with WiFi on all the time, 3G network, no data, only 2 background tasks on, playing bout 2 hours worth of music a day during the commute to office and back.

I think I need to ask again. How's ya'lls video recording? Mine glitches usually at the beginning of the video and in the middle part in a 1 min 30 second clip :C And I dunno what's the problem. You only notice the glitch when you play back the video on computer and on the phone.

The reason wifi consume less battery is because it just auto shut off after a period in lock screen mode doh.gif

Even for continuous usage, WiFi seems to consume less power. Every time I used the network data for about 15 minutes browsing session, the Battery app will set off the alarm with message like Battery Draining Quickly - 8% in 15 minutes. Using WiFi, I never seem to get those warnings.

i also experience the same.what i realize is that this happen because the phone is restart and reboot by it self in the pocket.So after that the screen not lock anymore and accidently trigger the bing voice in the pocket.
My phone have a lot restart problem.already send to ncc to repair.

Hi, reporting again, I have discovered some problem with push notifications. I use 4 messengers:
1. WhatsApp: Push notifications works most of the time.
2. WeChat: The worst, I have to turn the program on and then receive all my notifications.
3. KakaoTalk: Smooth.
4. LINE: Most of the time, I have to open the program to check for new messages!
