It can shoot video in 1080p and makes use of four microphones to record great sounding stereo audio using Nokia Rich Recording technology. A dual-LED flash will help the low-light shots. The camera has 20-megapixels, six-lens Carl Zeiss optics, optical image stabilization, a 1/2.5-inch backside illuminated sensor and an f/2.4 aperture. Yes, Nokia’s signature camera technology is a part of the Lumia 1520. Windows Phone 8 Update 3 also adds the ability to show another column of Live Tiles on the Home screen, bringing the total up to three, plus a new driving mode, a screen orientation lock, and improved accessibility features. At the moment, Nokia is the only manufacturer to announce a phone running the software, but that’s sure to change in the near future. That has changed with Windows Phone 8 Update 3, which comes already installed on the Lumia 1520. It’s all Microsoft’s fault, as Windows Phone 8 didn’t support resolutions higher than 720p, or processors with more than two cores. You may be wondering why it has taken manufacturers so long to introduce the specs we’ve been seeing on Android phones for the last year. How are 1080p and quad-core power possible on Windows Phone? It does, however, match the Sony Xperia Z Ultra. This sees it slot in-between the Galaxy Note 3 and the HTC One Max, as the former has the same processor but with 3GB of RAM, while the latter uses a 1.7GHz Snapdragon 600 chip and 2GB of RAM.
Powering the Lumia 1520 is the year’s most popular high-end processor, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800, running at 2.2GHz and backed up by 2GB of RAM.
The Lumia 1520 comes close to matching HTC’s phone, as it weighs in at 209 grams, again making Samsung’s 168 gram phablet look positively trim. We commented on the hefty weight of the HTC One Max, which at 217 grams is almost 50 grams heavier than the Note 3. The phone measures 162 x 85 x 8.7mm, which is about the same as the HTC One Max, although it’s slimmer by 1.6mm. A display this big needs a serious resolution, and the 1920 x 1080 pixel count is the best you can get. At 6-inches, it’s eclipsed only by monsters like the Xperia Z Ultra. The screen is larger than the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, the HTC One Max, and the LG Optimus G Pro. Nokia hasn’t messed around when it comes to the size of its first smartphone/tablet hybrid. Updated on by Andy: AT&T has put the Lumia 1520 up for pre-order, at a lower price than expected for the unlocked model, with a release date of November 15.
