For me the 1520 represents an excellent package at an extremely competitive price point. It isn't over priced, or under equipped in terms of hardware. I'm no fan of big screen sizes and that's the only reason I don't have it, that and the lack of a xenon ...
The Nokia Lumia 1520 is a great device, for someone, probably. For me it hints at the future, a rather larger teaser of the next generation of devices. Mainly I'd like this exact device crammed into a 5″ display package, which the Americans are very soon...
Beautiful 1080p screen, Thin profile offsets the size, Hardware easily matches and beats competitors, Growing App marketplace, Nokia supports some amazing apps, Camera technology still unbeatable
Needs two hands to operate, The large screen often feels wasted, Bigger battery takes very long time to charge, Stylus could have made a nice addition, Buttons are a bit tricky to press, You'll need a whole new wardrobe of clothes with pockets big enough
Overall, you won't be dissapointed with the Lumia 1520, as long as you can handle the size!The 1520 is a marvellous device, full of top-of-the-range hardware that really pushes the boundaries of what you can do with a Windows Phone, and that is probably i...

By now, you’re surely familiar with Nokia’s Lumia range and the clean design language that comes with the name, and that continues with the 1520. It’s the same curved design that we’ve grown to know and love since the Lumia 800 first made its debut in 2011, only it’s been given the super-sized treatment and simply towers over the rest of the range. The 1080p HD display measures up at a potentiall
The Nokia Lumia is big, but it’s not unwieldy. You’ll look a bit daft holding it to your head to make calls, but if you Snapchat and WhatsApp more than you ring, it’s not a problem. What is however, is that Nokia and Microsoft have done little to convince us there’s a need for a screen this size. Samsung’s Galaxy Note phones offer a brilliantly thought out stylus as well as the ability to run two
The Nokia Lumia 1520 is as good a phablet as Windows Phone could ever offer, make no mistake. On the shop shelf, it’s a far more attractive option than the banal plastic Galaxy Note 3, but as ever, it’s let down by Microsoft’s software, which offers no...
Great screen, Super fast processor, Solid build quality, All mod cons
Large size, Lacks OS features to justify 6in screen
Bigger isn't necessarily better, and the Nokia Lumia 1520 proves this to some extent, although there are certainly many positive aspects here. This phablet has an excellent display, slick performance, and offers Microsoft Office integration on a potentia...

Full HD screen, Extra space for more Live Tiles, Fast, powerful processor, Great 20-megapixel camera, MicroSD card support, Great battery life
Size will be too large for many, Stereo speakers would be nice, Windows Phone may be a turn off
The Lumia 1520 is the best Windows Phone we've ever reviewed. The only things holding it back are its large size, which will alienate many buyers, and WP8 itself. It's a fitting end to Nokia's phone legacy: fantastic hardware that would sell far better ...

The camera's really fun, the screen's impressive and the battery life will not let you down.
It's too big to use with one hand and too heavy as well. The camera's automatic and video modes need work too
We've never accused a phone of being too big before but this one really is. The screen and camera are great but the trade-off doesn't quite match up....
