The Nokia Lumia 2520 features fast gaming performance and LTE support out of the box. Xbox Music is an incredibly robust streaming app
And Nokia Music allows you to listen to songs you don't own without an Internet connection. It includes the full versio
The editors didn't like
Windows RT is too limited in what it can run at the moment
Poor construction
Windows RT
Heavy
Windows RT underpowered
No Kickstand
Slightly unbalanced design
No fullsized USB port
It's thicker and heavier than recent tablets
And its pointy corners are distracting. The screen has a yellow tint
Storage expansion is only accessible with a key or paperclip
And the keyboard accessory isn't as comfortable to type on as the Surface 2's

Great out of the box color choices. Excellent bright and vivid display that holds up well under sunlight. Comes with Microsoft Office and other great Nokia apps like Nokia MixRadio. Built in NFC. Can store an 80% charge in just one hour. Super solid build
Proprietary charger. Windows RT still lacks in the apps department. Lacks dedicated full size usb ports without keyboard case. MicroSD card slot can only be accessed with a paperclip. Wish it were a bit slimmer and lighter to compete better with the iPad
If you can't wait for the Surface to come out with a 4G LTE version, well, you really don't need too. The Nokia 2520 is a solid alternative that offers a beautiful design with fun color choices, along with plenty of performance and a top of its class...
My only complaint would be that this doesn't come with a keyboard. In order to be truly productive in my opinion and make full use of Office 2013 which comes preinstalled on the 2520 I can't see using it to it's full potential without one. For now you can...
Abstract: We'll be publishing a full, text-based review of the Nokia Lumia 2520 in due course, once we've had a chance to assess the device in conjunction with the Power Keyboard accessory, which in our view, given the productivity focus of the device, is a key par...

Attractive design, Long battery life, Bright, vibrant display, Good camera performance, Offline music and maps
No WiFi-only option, Picks up scratches and fingerprints, Typing in the lap isn't comfortable, Windows Store still has holes

Beautiful design and screen, Very affordable 4G tablet, Great battery life and fast charging
Windows RT still lacks apps, Minor bugs and crashes, Weak on-screen keyboard
So how does Nokia's report card look in light of the 2520? Design and hardware undoubtedly get an ‘A'. It's a strong statement; a bold, powerful slate with character that should serve a myriad of users well. Windows RT will pose a few problems for some, e...
The Lumia 2520 sets out to be the best Windows RT 8.1 tablet, and it does a very good job at that. We love what Nokia's doing, and our biggest gripe with the tablet – the lack of apps – isn't really Nokia's fault at all. We kind of hope Nokia has a full-b...

Gorgeous, brilliant ClearBlack display, Fast performance, Lightweight design with quality
The more I write about the Lumia 2520, the more I think I do need to go order one again. I recommend people take an honest look at their tablet needs and what Windows RT 8.1 can offer them. Don't write off Windows RT because it isn't a full Windows OS. Ta
The Nokia Lumia 2520 is a great piece of hardware and Nokia has done a good job with it. The display is fantastic and tough to beat. As I mentioned last week, if you use your tablet primarily for media consumption then it should satisfy your needs. The...
