From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

The prices of the new Nokia Lumia 720 and Lumia 520 smartphones, which were announced with much fanfare at the Mobile World Congress earlier this week, have now been revealed.

The Nokia Lumia 520 will cost £141.66 in the UK according to mobile technology site Clove, and the Nokia Lumia 720 will be priced at £249.99. The more affordable 520 model is pitched by Nokia at a younger market and described by the manufacturer as a "more fun smartphone".

Both models feature a touchscreen that even works with long nails or gloves.

Nokia will be aiming to build on the success of other models in the Lumia line, such as the 920, which was released late last year.

Lumia 520 - digital lenses, a 1GHz dual core processor, 5 Megapixel camera, Snapdragon S4 processor, 9.6h talktime, 4" display
