Reception

Tom Warren from The Verge have praised the phone for its display, speed and camera, but noted the lack of stylus support and its size makes it difficult to use one handed.[13]

Andy Vandervell from TrustedReviews wrote: "The Lumia 1520 is a watershed phone in many respects. It brings Windows Phone hardware on par with the rest of the smartphone world, but the software still needs a bit of work."[15]

Brad Molen from Engadget concludes: "The Lumia 1520 offers a Windows Phone experience unlike any we've seen before. With its top-notch hardware, fantastic imaging and constantly improving firmware, this is by far our favorite WP8 device."[16]

Awards

The Nokia Lumia 1520 won the GSM Arena's Smartphone Champions League in 2013. Nokia captured the first 3 places with the Nokia Lumia 1020 in second place and the Nokia Lumia 520 tied for third with the LG Nexus 5.[17]

Known issues

Some users reported speaker overdrive issues with hardware version 5001.[18]

The latest software update is hoped to fix the random reboot issues.[19]
