The editors didn't like
Its size makes onehanded operation difficult
And call quality was muddier than on most Nokia phones. Limited voice dictation and voice assistance in the OS hobbles its usefulness as a phablet
Extremely large
Awkward to hold
Camera can be sluggish
Windows Phone UI needs work
Arguably too big
WP8 feels unoptimised
Lack of apps
Lack of video store
A little on the heavy side
Takes nanoSIM
So previous Windows Phone users will need to get a new SIM card

We'll happily give credit where credit is due, and it is certainly due here, as the Nokia Lumia 1520 isn't just an excellent first phablet for Nokia, it's an outstanding handset for the Finnish brand in general.Some may criticise Windows Phone for its app...
The Nokia Lumia 1520 is the best Windows Phone we've ever used. It rocks top-end hardware, has one of the best screens we've ever seen and its camera is fantastic, so long as you use it as a point-and-shoot. The extra camera stuff was fun too, if a little...

The Lumia 1520 is an interesting device, but with a few key caveats. If you buy your phones on contract, either for tax or smaller payments reasons, you're plumb out of luck there. Putting it in that context, then, you've got to compete within the Windows...

It has a few issues when it comes to design, but that shouldn't put you off this handset.If size doesn't put you off, the Lumia 1520 is a fantastic phone, and one worthy to carry the flag for the future of the Nokia brand. Its gorgeous looks, new software...
