Hey guys.. I'm thinking of changing to this phone from Sony Xperia Z..... Choosing this over 930 because i want battery life and try bigger screen....

I read there's a lot of problems after 8.1 cyan update is that true? how bad are they or should i just stick with wp8.0 instead and wait for a good update in the future?

I should be buying new from nokia store or Lazada, do you think i won't face problems if i updated right away?

Need your opinion guys as i really love this phone (from reviews last year) but discouraged after reading the updates problems

Well never try never know..why always wanna rely on review when u can experience it yourself??now am on cyan and there is no whatsoever problem compare to my previous dev preview.and FYI i also switch from xperiA Z and i can tell u wont regret a thing! Besides the water resistant function.battery LIFE is FAR MUCH BETTER THAN XZ

Yeah xz battery life.... And my xz already has bad back panel so no waterproof anyways..

Today i went prangin mall penang to check the 1520 out.. They sell RM1999?! And say it comes with wp8.1... I feel its a con and they'll manually help me update not out of the box new batch... How much did you guys get it? I dont believe its still rm1999.... Havent go to official nokia store in gurney or paragon yet...

Just got my Lumia 1520 two days ago... updated to WP8.1 Cyan and hard reset. But it still seems like the battery life isn't as good as advertised on wp8.0 reviews....

I changed to WP for extended battery life, now i'm quite pissed of the wp8.1 update.. A lot of things seems redundant, missing a few key features i had when i owned Lumia 800 long time ago... not good...

btw, is there anyway to downgrade back to WP8.0? I tried Nokia recovery and Nokia care, but it seems like i'm too late, Nokia has already start pushing WP8.1 Cyan as default. gahhh.... I wanna go back to wp8.0 and wait till wp8.1 is stable..

Planning to get a L1520 white version. Kinda worried of two things - the camera hump and discoloration of the poly.

Worried the camera hump will cause the glass lens surface to be scratched when put on table. Any users can feedback on this? I know putting a case would solve this problem.

Also, anyone bought before from SatuGadgetdotcom? biggrin.gif Looks reliable but worried whether they'll ship out AP unit sad.gif

I put my L1520 screen down.. but I do have tempered glass SP on it, SP has scratches already.. but no prob just change and its better than case, i dont like case..

4) Rotation lag is irritating me, 2 seconds to detect I've changed phone orientation. How did that get pass QC? Then motion data is dead. So yeah, Microsoft have to fix some pretty big bugs ASAP.
