If it's a bit of color you are looking for, the Lumia 630 can be quite the choice (although the traditional removable plastic back stays).

In case you missed when we mentioned it earlier in the post, but on purchasing the Lumia 630, you will be entitled to get as much as 7GB of storage space on the cloud. And that's pretty cool provided you have a lot of songs, images and videos to store but don't have ample space.
