By now
You’re surely familiar with Nokia’s Lumia range and the clean design language that comes with the name
And that continues with the 1520. It’s the same curved design that we’ve grown to know and love since the Lumia 800 first made its debut in 2011
Only it’s been given the super-sized treatment and simply towers over the rest of the range. The 1080p HD display measures up at a potentiall

The editors didn't like
Messy homescreen
Late to launch in some countries
Needs two hands to operate
The large screen often feels wasted
Bigger battery takes very long time to charge
Stylus could have made a nice addition
Buttons are a bit tricky to press
You'll need a whole new wardrobe of clothes with pockets big enough
Lack of optimisation
Heavy
Slow camera
Windows Phone still lacks apps
File compatibility
Music repro could be stronger
Lack of creativity
Bulky square body
Windows Phone rather limited
Windows Phone 8 layout can be overwhelming
App selection still behind iOS and Android
It's too big to use with one hand and too heavy as well. The camera's automatic and video modes need work too
The Nokia Lumia is big
But it’s not unwieldy. You’ll look a bit daft holding it to your head to make calls
But if you Snapchat and WhatsApp more than you ring
It’s not a problem. What is however
Is that Nokia and Microsoft have done little to convince us there’s a need for a screen this size. Samsung’s Galaxy Note phones offer a brilliantly thought out stylus as well as the ability to run two
Apps. Or rather
The lack of them
No special treats to make the most of the big screen
Camera can be slow to shoot
Enormous size won't be to everyone's taste
Windows Phone app store is still very poorly stocked
Lacking creativity
Bulky rectangular build
Windows Phone still limited
Too big
App store pricey with older content compared to rivals
No notifications centre
No quick settings
Switching connections on and off is a pain
Might be too big for some
Could be missing a few apps you want
Underwhelming video recording Hollow sounding speaker
Interface needs more functions that fully exploit the large display
A. HTC One maxHTC的UltraPixel相機，強調有三倍的進光量，的確是在夜間拍攝時可以發揮效用，不過也使得亮處容易過曝。One max跟同樣採用UltraPixel的New One、One mini、Butterfly S一樣，強項都在夜間、室內或是近拍等場景，28mm廣角也是表現較為突出的一個項目。一般日拍的表現，跟其它旗艦機相較之下沒有太大優勢，反而是HTC Zoe與Video Highlights這兩項應用才是2013年手機的招牌功能。競爭對手的相機表現不斷進步，UltraPixe...
