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
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
