I need an inexpensive Lumia with Glance for my mum and dad who're going to use it on a voice-only plan (no data, and no SMS). They won't use it a lot, so Glance is an advantage for noticing missed calls (they won't typically have it on them).

Which Lumias don't support Glance? A quick Bing search suggests that the 520/521 don't, and that the 930/Icon don't. Any other Lumias that don't support it? I believe this is a Lumia-only feature, so I don't believe there are any non-Lumias that have it. Thank you very much.
 
According to Microsoft, the ones with Glance are:

Lumia 532, 532 Dual SIM, 532 Dual SIM DTV, 620, 640 Dual SIM, 640 Dual SIM DTV, 640 LTE, 640 LTE Dual SIM, 640 XL, 640 XL Dual SIM, 640 XL LTE, 640 XL LTE Dual SIM, 720, 720T, 820, 830, 920, 920T, 925, 925T, 1020, 1320, and 1520
 
With regard to handset availability, I should add that I'm in Canada, though I have no hesitation about importing (many European and Asian Lumias support 850MHz and 1900MHz 3G).

Digging on Microsoft Mobile's website, it also looks like the Lumia 430, 435, 530, 535, 625, and 635 don't have it.

Though the 532 does, oddly.

Maybe it would have been a shorter list to ask for Lumias that *do* support Glance. :)
 
Thanks for that! Do you have a link to where you found that? If Microsoft maintains a page that lists handsets that support it, it might be worth my while to bookmark it for referring to as new devices come out.

If you want the latest software,hardware and glance and cheap,go for the 532.Else look at the old 620 or 720.
