now the future of wp totally in the hand of ms... the apps still just a bit lack still... heavy heart to jump on this boat just yet...

Hi, can i go pick up once stock arrive if stock arrive 6th? Coz most probably i wont be around on 9/12.

Mind to share what apps are still lacking?
To be honest, aside from "Candy Crush".... I don't see lacking any more apps...

Nah, seriously, if mobile gaming is a factor to potential buyers, then I won't recommend them to get WP.
If for business purpose, then yes, WP is recommended. Just hope that they can add in more support for attachment and allow opening of the password protected file.

it depend on your usage ..might to share what is your daily required application?

Below some of which I think relevant apps that seem not there yet:

1. Auto profile changing
2. GBA/SNES emulator for old games (yeah I'm old school here)
3. Very good/user friendly e-Bible
4. File Explorer (which currently ms is working on the next release)
5. Comic reader (from those famous site)

these are just those I'm aware of, the rest I'm not sure... not even mention some of those big games that currently played with android (already very high level) but not exist in wp environment...

ahhh sorry forgot to add my daily apps requirement:

1. Auto profiler
2. News reader (RSS) preferable on screen
3. social apps notification preferable a hub
4. comic reader (onepiece/naruto/attack of titan)
5. PPS/Youtube + downloader
6. PDF reader
7. Bible
8. Calender, syn with multiple acc.
9. some of my leveled up online game
10. call recorder

For me, 3 main apps that are still not available or not ugly as win98 programs are:

1. FTP
2. IDE editor
3. Offline Bible/ESV Study Bible

It's actually not big for me (I got Xperia ZU), 6" is just ngam ngam for the maximum size phone for me, ZU's 6.3" is tad too unwieldy. One thing I noticed though, the camera is not drastically faster than 1020 despite the faster processor (feels almost the same), but the WP UI is so fast that it feels like 120fps when scrolling!

1520 is for the very first time a Nokia phone that checks all the boxes of my requirements..

editor?? but with current wp capability if have also no use as you can't browse to the file you want to open...

hehe... ur checkbox will getting less tick when ms turn on their stingy mode...

i don't mind it sandboxed in the app storage like in iOS's Textastic. Crazy beautiful free Android apps like Turbo Client make it really hard for other phones like 1520 to pry my current Nexus 5 from my hands as my primary phone...Oh well

i like this bro comment ...
LOL ....

Hi arbelnox,

We are surely hoping that the phone will arrive on 5th and we can have them out on the same day! Also our courier service do ship on Saturday Though depends on area.


Hi jobneed,

I'm weak. Tempted even without stepping into Nokia Store. Mostly because got micro SD card (32GB on my 1020 is... sad).
