Makes it Easy to keep my Life Organized.

I've had windows phones since the started and love them. So much easier to upgrade phones since all you have to do is sign in and it syncs everything for you. You don't have to bit your games and apps again all you have to do is install them.
Pros: Personal
I would recommend this to a friend!

An excellent phone with great features!

The build quality of the phone is great. I do wish that a flagship phone such as this had a more premium feel to it like the Lumia 930 and had an LED customizable notification light. I love the screen size and it would be great to have a camera like the 1020's on a device this size! Overall its great for every task I throw at it.

Great Phone

Android phones are worst when quality of apps are taken into consideration. Iphone is nice and cool great apps but productivity is almost null. Moved to WP Lumia 1520 great phone, LTE on 1520 beats any others phones output,it is network based but for some reason on this phone its even better, nice calendar integration, contacts integration from facebook etc. Swype keyboard amazing
Forgot to mention Cortana tracks flights ,my stocks, gives estimated time to make to appointments based on traffic,gives updates on news tags I am interested in and lot more
Phone
The phone is sturdy, phone might look huge but you will get used to. Amazing camera 20mp ,phone is super fast thanks to processor
IPhone 6+ is almost the same size but smaller screen.
Overall a great phone and great service OS

Great phone for productivity

I had to adjust to the 6" screen, but after that it has been great! I switched to Windows from Android because I figured it would help me to be more productive. It has delivered.
The personal live tiles allows me to organize my phone the way I like it and not be distracted by things I don't want. It has games, but that is not its main appeal, at least not to me. Emails, writing documents, the ability to easily do PowerPoint from my phone or project my screen onto a computer with or without a USB cord, clear pictures to include in newsletter updates, etc.
The only reason I gave it 4 starts instead of 5 is because my touch screen has a permanent line faded in the background. It's not visible while I am using the phone. Great phone for productivity.

Excellent Battery Life and Camera

Battery life on the 1520 lasts all day browsing and watching videos on it's amazing HD screen. Cortana is very helpful as a personal assistant she understands my questions without me talking like a robot. The camera takes outstanding pictures and the lenses allow for many photo options.
Pros: Personal

For Me, It Is Closest To Perfect!

I have owned other smart phones and also Nokia products but this one fits my needs the best of any. No smart phone is 100% perfect yet... Maybe with a few more tweaks and upgrades, though, this device will be the first! My biggest complaint is the difference of compatibility between countries. For example, here in Romania we still don't have Cortana available and I am wondering if or when we ever will have it. There are also some issues that I have yet to resolve with Office 365 even though I have spent many hours online with Microsoft techs attempting to resolve those things. Otherwise, the camera is excellent, action is smooth as silk and response is wonderful. I would have also enjoyed true stereo speakers but you can resolve that if you are at your desk with an external set up for sound. Again, overall, I am very happy and content and would recommend the Nokia 1520 to anyone looking for a good quality piece of equipment.
Pros: Business

Jump in productivity

I switched from Android and apps. Noticed increase in my productivity without relying on apps and directly using Office applications. Live tiles are great, but the battery life is the winner! Wish I had noise reduction headphones that worked well with windows phone for clear voice/audio on conf calls.
