        AnonD-43677, 26 Oct 2013no mkv, flv, ac3 support... nokia sucks.. android wins.. no hang or lag but device will save ... moreLOL....wp8 restarts??have you ever even seen a wp8 device or you're just trolling by reading B.S. On internet?you think ois and xenon will make image quality of sony better than nokia??LOL...you're embarrassing yourself..........and about the player stuff,fair enough.....the does not support a few format.....but it has advantages to make up for that,which you can't get on android like RAW capturing,or nokia beamer which is completely amazing app,or free lifetime voice-guided navigation which works without internet,and many more stuff like nokia city lens,nokia refocus(another amazing app),glance screen,MS fresh paint,nokia storyteller,nokia director and free MS office for lifetime...........so saying nokia is dead just shows your ignorance.......

          no hang or lag but device will save u time by restarting itself..
          water proof??? look at sony xperia dude...
          nokia is now waste... just waiting for ois and xenon flash in sony phones and tab.. then nokia is doomed for ever ...

            for all those samdung fans who are saying note 3 is the best phablet..
            1) screen..
            nokia 1520: huge 6 inch ips display with clear black tech and puremotion hd + ( 60 hz refresh rate ) its black levels are as deep as amoleds.. iam happy that nokia didnt put those pentile amoled displays that was put on lumia 925 & 1020 ..
            note 3 : nothing new pentile crap ( 50%red ,50%blue and 100% green).

            2)RAM:
            sure note 3 has 3 gb RAM but i have heard some news that nearly 60% of it is always full ( so called touchwiz uses too much RAM ) this problem is confermed for S4 and i think note 3 alsohas this..
            but nokia lumia phones are not RAM hungry i doubt that it even uses 25 % ram when all the apps are closed.. wndows phone is not ram hungry..

            3) build quality:
            no need to tell more about this. lumia phones are often nicknamed as tanks. they have superior build quality than any other phones..
            what to say abut note 3? fragile,cheap plastic and not so good build quality.. have you guys ever seen drop test of those fragile samdung phones ?

            4)Camera:
            Everybody knows that nokia phones are the best camera phones in the world . coupled with new features lumia 1520s camera will crush note 3's camera..

            5) Sound
            only nokia (and htc )has one of the best phones that feature superior sound engeneering. nokia has got 4 mics and stereo speakers that no other phone has.
            what does note 3 got ? 2 mics with crap recording and speakers..


            whats more ? microsoft has already started to port its xbox games to windows phone. i bet you that nokia lumias will have high end games that no other platforms have in a few days..

            nokia lumia 1520 has got life time free navigation ( even in offline ) (HERE maps)..

            what has note 3 got that
            lumia 1520 dosent have?
            S-PEN? whats the use of it except for writing notes on the screen. ( may prefer typing than writing )
            and oh ya i nearly forgot those useless sensors such as air gestures, air view etc etc.. if you use those features in pubic people will think that you are a showoff.

            and 4 k recording ? for all who own note 3 do you have a 4k monitor or TV. its just another gimmick.


            NOKIA RULES .....
            SAMSUNG SUCKS.....

                        AnonD-100975, 23 Oct 2013If the sensor size had been the same as the 1020 then I would have pre-ordered straight away. ... moreI don't think it would be plausible to include a huge sensor, xenon flash and the physical bump necessary for this in a phablet. The phablet itself is already big. The result would be an extremely huge and heavy device. 1020 camera will, of course, be better after Lumia Black update, but I guess 1520 will bring excellent image quality already.

The ... moredude I'm only trying to justify the size I'm not forcing my ideals on anybody and I didn't say bigger is better personally I'm hoping there will be a 5 inch version of this thing cuz I'm not into phablets but all I'm saying is the added pieces of hardware add to the girth

                                  I have used all 3 OS... Android,IOS and Windows...I just love the combination of Lumia and Windows OS more than any android or apple device...WOS interfaces and Lumia butter touch screens z d best in class...class ppl always prefer Lumia with WOS...ppl say windows os is not gud coz they are afraid to admit they dont know to use it and dont know to explore its features...I now using a Luma 710 and I felt its far far better than any android device below 25k category.Never lagged...never stuck..runs like a jelly on wine...ppl plz try Lumias once..i bet you will never go back to androids again..androids are for beginners and noobs...wos for geeks...i really pity to ppl who never tried a lumia or wos and think android or ios z the best in d world...wake up guys...try WOS once and see d difference for yourselves...and OMG ..this 1520...I will marry her if i could...no words :-)
