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

Gorgeous 5-inch 1080p display, Fantastic build quality, One of the best camera experiences to date, Solid call quality and impressive data speeds, Above average battery life
Ecosystem and app offering still need work, Mediocre speaker performance, No Glance feature,
If we're to be completely honest, the Lumia Icon is easily one of the most solid experiences we've ever had with a smartphone. Battery life, performance, camera, call quality, data speeds, and nearly everything in-between are consistent, reliable, and ...

High quality build without a hint of cheapness. With brightness on low, the battery can last well over a day. Quadcore Snapdragon processor for speedy, powerful performance. Awesome typing experience: The Windows Phone auto correct and auto suggest option
Sluggish camera will disappoint shutterbugs hoping to capture fleeting moments. Phone call audio quality isn't up to snuff. Exclusive to Verizon. Still hampered by limitations of Windows Phone 8. Missing the popular Nokia Glance lockscreen notification fe

Noticeable shutter lag detracts from the camera experience, Windows app store still lags that of Android, iOS
While the Nokia Lumia Icon for Verizon remains the best Windows Phone we've tested in 2014, noticeable shutter lag and a nagging lack of applications still hold it back....
Abstract: Proving itself to be one of the most outstanding Android smartphones launched over the past holiday season, the LG G2 isn’t one to let down a good fight, especially when it’s against a newer rival that’s looking to supplant it from the its top contende...
Amazing 1080p display, Excellent performance, Good battery life, Fantastic imaging experience, Great audio quality
Uninspired design, Verizon-only, No global LTE roaming
The Lumia Icon is the solid high-end Windows Phone that we've wanted for a long time. It has an amazing display, great performance and solid imaging capability, but its exclusivity to Verizon will severely limit its appeal....
Abstract: Nearly a year has gone by, and it’s hard to believe that the Samsung Galaxy S4 is still in contention – its heart still beating profusely in light of the heavy competition around. Over on Verizon’s lineup, the Nokia Lumia Icon is giving the carrier a c...
