Er guys, wanna ask that white 1520 comes with matte or glossy finish eg Lumia 720's? Gonna grab 1 soon. tongue.gif

I think glossy for red..others are matte finish...during the workshop..managed to test the white matte the whole session..over period of time, it will look a bit out of color unless u use cover..

contemplating between matte white or glossy red.. hmm.gif

It's on 'promo' now for RM1999 though I got it for a whole RM200 less from regular store.

I'd buy from Nokia Store though. If you happen to get a lemon at least you can probably exchange it. If they don't allow you to just make a fuss on their FB page. >:)

BTW I slapped on a Nillkin case and it appears the problem has gone away for now (touch wood). Hope it stays good as I'm not really in the mood to make some hundreds of km journey.

guys, im planning to get this Lumia 1520..currently an Android user which is HTC OneX with 4.7".

does this 6" phablet is an overkill in terms of portability?

also, where's the best deal at the moment? So far i've found SatuGadget which sells RM1,749.

also, how's the battery? is it really awesome that could last 2+ days??

thanks!

I bought at DirectD Rm1759..but in our our fb (1520)..some1 post that courts is selling RM16xx..
its big tho..but after few days u get used to it (previouly iphone 3gs)...when i look at wifey phone..it looks like a toy..
It depends on you tho...jeans? or khakis?normal office attire will feel the bulge..

by default apps, can stay more than 2 days...i tried it while waiting for nano sim..once installed whatsapp, facebook, waze and etc...it can last one and a half day...moderate usage of browsing, heavy whassap, no gaming...

now only i realized that its in nano sim... means need to go Maxis centre and get a Nano; from current microSim...

anything more than 2 days is freaking good for me; which only runs on wifi to fiddle with whatsApp, Line, and FB.

thanks for sharing this.

btw, does it really worth the additional RM650 over lumia 1320 to get this 1520? The price gap is just too huge swallow when we could have similar device at RM1.05k. Of course, the given spec comparison is very obvious.

This would be my first WP device, hence i'm wondering if i should get a entry level to play around before fully porting over.

any suggestion?

My opinion..it depends on what do you really want..it my case..the last phone i bought was in 2009, so i can say that my turnover for another would be another 3-4years..if you are a "gadget guy"..changing phone in 1-2years..1320 may suits you..

but be prepared for the lack of apps and customisation..as compared to android...regardless of 1520/1320..

side-by-side comparison in specs..processor (CPU and GPU), ram, camera..hence, i choose 1520.. smile.gif

ps: 1320 is micro-sim...no hassle..
