The only thing that makes it compatible or not is the size and type of jack-plug compared to the earphone jack on the phone.
If it works on your Lumia 520 that's fine, nothing to worry about.

It wasn't compatible with Nokia 701 because it wouldn't fit in the earphone jack on that phone. Some older Nokia's had a proprietary earphone jack, not a universal one.

In order cut down on electrical waste, most phone manufacturer's now use universal jack types for earphones and for phone chargers.

Why are so many phone problems posted here and not on the dedicated mobile phone forum? It's here:
