The new 1080p 6-inch screen has a pixel density of 368 ppi and is
a ClearBlack IPS LCD unit with Super Sensitive touch. It's covered by Corning
Gorilla Glass 2 for protection and Nokia has worked hard on its legibility in
direct sunlight. The larger screen real estate now allows for a third column of
Live Tiles on the homescreen or you can simply enjoy more large-sized tiles.
The Nokia Lumia 1520 takes after
the Lumia 1020 design - it's actually like a supersized version of the 1020
sans the camera hump on the back. A part of the polycarbonate plastic used
comes from recycling, so it's more environmentally friendly, too.
Inside the new smartphone there
is a 3400mAh battery (as compared to 2000 mAh for the Lumia 1020), allowing for
up to 32 days of standby and up to 124h of music playback.
There is a price to be paid for
that battery capacity. While the Lumia 1520 is quite slim at 8.7mm of
thickness, it's really heavy at 209g. In comparison, the 5.7-inch Samsung
Galaxy Note 3 is way lighter at 168 g, while the 6.4-inch Sony Xperia Z Ultra
(with all the glass it has on the back) weighs around the same at 212g.
Connectivity-wise, the Lumia 1520
comes with Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac with channel bonding, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, USB 2.0,
LTE up to 150 Mbps, HSDPA up to 42.2 Mbps and HSUPA up to 5.76 Mbps.
The Lumia 1520 comes with four
microphones on board, which not only get used for multimicrophone noise
cancellation in calls, but also deliver Nokia's proprietary Rich sound
recording.
The Lumia 1520 uses a 26 mm wide
angle 20MP PureView camera with 6-lens Zeiss optics and a 1/2.5 inch BSI
sensor. The camera has OIS and makes use of oversampling, which results into
smaller res photos with less noise and also allows for lossless zooming. There
is no xenon flash though, only a Dual LED one. Video recording maxes out at
1080p@30fps.
