It's a really pretty phone. Right out of the box
I was impressed by its looks. More than that
Its size is pretty perfect in that it bucks the phablet trend of phones that seem to endlessly creep up in size. It also goes without saying that the camera i
The editors didn't like
The heft of the phone was disappointing. Also I really don't see the point of the software and apps the phone comes pre-loaded with. For example
There's one for the NFL and another for the Weather Channel

Vivid, engrossing display, Stylish, wellcrafted build, Fast and powerful
Windows Phone is still maturing, Thick and heavy, Camera is good, but not on the level of past Lumias
For Verizon users who are onboard with what Windows Phone has to offer, the Lumia Icon is a no-brainer purchase. With its gorgeous display, sexy design, and powerful internals, the Icon oozes quality from every pore....
With the Icon being the first Windows Phone OS phone that I have had the chance to check out I ended up spending more time adjusting to the new OS than I typically would. With that though I found a new appreciation for the OS and can see why it is growin...
Excellent all-around performance, Beautiful display, High-quality camera, Surprisingly clear, clean audio recording, Good Battery Life
Lower scores in some web browsing tests, Windows Phone app store
Nokia Lumia Icon - Find It @ AmazonThe Lumia Icon's overall strong performance might be enough to persuade potential buyers to snap it up. Though, the Icon has a number of additional attractive features that may catch a consumer's fancy such as well, like...
The Nokia Icon is a wonderful Windows Phone device, which is well designed and great to use. It could be a strong phone if you like the OS in general, or if your activities are very much focused on email, mobile photography, web browsing — plus other apps...

Gorgeous display, 20MP camera, Dedicated shutter button, Great battery life
Chunky and heavy, No notification LEDs, No microSD card, Doesn't have global LTE roaming
I either heard or read where someone said that the Nokia Lumia Icon is a nice camera that just happens to have a phone built in. That sounds a little harsh, but isn't too far from my own feelings about this phone. I wanted to love it, but I came away with...
Great camera. Sharp, bright and colorful full HD 5" display, fast quad core CPU, wireless charging
A little less stylish than other Lumia phones, no storage expansion slot. Windows phone app store still weaker than Android and iOS
Looks aside, this is Nokia's best Lumia yet, unless you're a serious camera buff who lusts for the Nokia Lumia 1020. The Lumia Icon brings a full HD display, cutting edge CPU and graphics and an excellent camera to Windows Phone, and despite my aesthe...
Performance-wise, the Icon is top notch, and powers through Windows Phone 8 without issue. And that's really no surprise, either, given the device sports a Snapdragon 800 chip. Even with a more powerful processor and higher resolution display, the Icon's ...
Abstract: The Nokia Lumia Icon is a follow-up to Verizon's previous Nokia phone, the Lumia 928 . With the Icon having a larger screen, more horsepower under the hood and a bigger camera outback, the phone, on paper, appears to be a significant upgrade. With a new-i...
