Size can be too large for some

Massive, bright and clear display, Impressive camera with fantastic low-light performance, Bristling with power, Top-notch build quality
Apps. Or rather, the lack of them, No special treats to make the most of the big screen, Camera can be slow to shoot
The 1520 is the biggest, most powerful Windows Phone to date, and continues Nokia's legacy of pushing the Windows Phone envelope. While it might not have the large sensor of the Lumia 1020 , its camera is still hugely impressive, producing shots that ar...
Lack of creativity; Bulky square body; Windows Phone rather limited
The screen is crisp and bright, and the 20MP snapper is impressive, although the big screen could do with some creative apps and accessories to show it off.Pros: Bright, sharp display; Roomy desktops; Powerful well-supported snapper; Impressive battery li...
Bright, crisp screen; Spacious desktops; Powerful wellsupported camera; Long battery life
Lacking creativity; Bulky rectangular build; Windows Phone still limited
The Nokia Lumia 1520 is the latest in a long line of phablets, but the first from Nokia and the first to sport Windows Phone 8. It’s another gorgeous Lumia handset, although it’s large enough to trouble most pockets and is definitely more suited to bags. ...
Good design, crisp screen, smooth performance, excellent camera, plenty of storage, good battery life
Windows Phone 8 layout can be overwhelming, app selection still behind iOS and Android
Nokia's best Windows Phone device yet, boasting an HD display, quad-core processor and excellent battery life. The Windows Phone ecosystem is also improving with almost all major apps now available....

Great high-definition screen; Attractive, sturdy design; Powerful processor; Good battery life; Decent camera
Enormous size won't be to everyone's taste; Windows Phone app store is still very poorly stocked
The Nokia Lumia 1520 has a gorgeous, high-definition screen, a powerful core, solid battery life and a good camera. It's monstrously big though, which won't suit everyone and there are very few apps to choose from in the Windows Phone store....

Excellent build, fantastic camera and options, beautiful screen, good battery life, Glance screen, Black OS will bring plenty more with it - including raw file capture from camera
Switching connections on and off is a pain, might be too big for some, could be missing a few apps you want
The Nokia Lumia 1520 has to be the best Windows Phone 8 handset on the market. It's certainly the best Lumia we've used to date. That's not just thanks to the reassuringly high quality build, but also thanks to the new Black OS. The OS version we'v...
Expandable storage with microSD card, most powerful Windows Phone device with quadcore processor, large Full HD screen, decent camera, good battery, Nokia software tweaks
Might be too big for some, Windows Phone app store still understocked
The Lumia really is a highly competent and thoughtfully designed phablet device. If photography skills are more important to you than sheer size and raw power, the Lumia 1020 is still the phone for you, but if you want the best all-round ...

This is certainly the biggest Lumia phone Nokia has ever made, but is it the best? With the latest Windows Phone OS and more power than ever before it's the best on paper. In the hand it's an impressive device too which, to us right now, appears to be t...
