Andy Vandervell from TrustedReviews wrote: "The Lumia 1520 is a watershed phone in many respects. It brings Windows Phone hardware on par with the rest of the smartphone world, but the software still needs a bit of work."[14]

Known issues

Some users have reported speaker overdrive issues.[15] Few reported about the same problem of Freezing and hanging, which mostly found in all Lumia phones. Resetting the phone is good DIY method to take care of this problem. [16]
