what's up everyone John Brenda from techno buffoon here with an unboxing of the Big Daddy of Windows Phones this is the Lumia 1520 let's go ahead and open it up and see if this is the phone you want to obsessively check every 15 minutes for the next two years here is the box for the Lumia 1520 picture the device on it this is one of those phones I've been really excited to take a look at I've been a fan of Windows Phone for a while and certainly since it was unveiled in Abu Dhabi just a few weeks ago go ahead and slide this box out and there is that six inch phone underneath a upgrade your camera app stuff and a Quick Start Guide for AT&T to go ahead and pull this out and this is a gigantic phone nokia went from four point five to six inches and really just jumped right ahead which is pretty an impressive jump it off the top to the side for a quick second see what else we were going to have inside of the box we've got a sim door key for opening or sim we've got like there's actually a paper working here on that very often so Nokia stuff setting up your phone is fast and easy with Nokia quick start up and usually it is we've got a wall wart and charging cable that is about it here is the phone itself and is absolutely gigantic go ahead and pull off the screen protector here whooshing noise pretty satisfying on the back as well peel that off it's foam looks really pretty happy that we got the sort of cherry or candy red version of it so here is the phone with its ginormous six inch screen it is for the first time on Windows Phone 1920 by 1080 giving it a 367 PPI it's an HD LCD clear black with Gorilla Glass 2 Windows Phone 8 onboard windows will now has the latest specs Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 clocked at 2.2 gigahertz 2 gigs of ram 32 gigs of internal storage but you can always add more to that which is pretty nice of course you get 7 gigs of free cloud SkyDrive storage rather there is a 20 megapixel autofocus lenz with optical image stabilization nokia does a killer job with their cameras with new camera app lets you focus after the fact sort of what the Lytro camera does as well 1.2 megapixel wide-angle lens right on top taking all your selfies 802 11 ABG and an AC 3400 milliamp hour battery supposedly it's integrated for qi wireless charging but I heard rumors the 18 t version may not so I'll put that to the test but you guys know whether or not a does charge so check the text down below to see if it does indeed have wireless charging built-in does have NFC from a serve height standpoint it's 160 2.8 meters or 6.41 inches from top to bottom it's a really big phone wing 209 grams or 7.37 ounces get it a ton of cool colors including yellow white black or of course looks like my favorite glossy red let's do a real quick size comparison because it's a hard thing to do to make something like the Galaxy Note 5.7 inches looked diminutive but there it is this is the Galaxy Note 3 at 5.7 inches and of course a 1520 in my right hand at 6 inches let's bring in the previously most recent nokia phone it is the Lumia 1020 you can see what that looks like at 4.5 inches looks like a teeny tiny kid brother and on the back you don't have that giant PureView camera hump that we've got on the 1020 oh there's a little bit of a camera hump there and just for good measure let's bring in a I phone 5s you can see whether that looks like it just looks teeny tiny next to it's gigantic friend aqua tour of the device I've got nothing really on the right side other than your volume rocker up and down excuse me that's where your SIM card and expendable storage is going to live under each of those doors on the right that's where your volume rocker up and down is going to be power and lock button and your camera button charge and sync cable 3.5 millimeter headset jack that's they're really thin phone I'm surprised how thin it actually is and of course you've got your three Windows buttons here you got back your Windows or home button and your search button that's guy appears to be out of juice I'm gonna go and plug it in for a little while come back take a look at the UI and what it looks like on a giant 1080p screen with a whole new row for live tiles alright so we've got the phone all and that is what 1080p windows phone looks like so a couple neat things are happening here first you get that whole extra row of icons second it's not gonna translate well on video but this screen looks absolutely gorgeous to be hold so again I think Nokia Microsoft did a very very nice job here those interesting tweaks that we've got first you can download an app which I will show you it's called Nokia focus and what that does are Nokia refocused rather essentially takes that Lytro type ability lets you refocus your shots really on anything so I'll go ahead and turn this around here now you can see here's a picture that I took just a few minutes ago and I could focus on anything in there just by tapping something that comes into focus and it does a really nice job of doing that and it's a free application for anybody with a Nokia phone so it's a really cool addition here everything else though is pretty standard things we've seen in the past you got Nokia music and all kinds of other sort of standard Microsoft additions some AT&T things are added in here AT&T family map Walker and that kind of stuff that you may or may not choose to use but anyway it's all sort of here and it's a Windows Phone and glory again this is a very very big phone but it's a really thin phone usually didn't go hand-in-hand at the Lumia device how it's gonna fit in your pocket it's a little bit on the big side and certainly knows a book you're wearing room will do jeans and it might get some look you're using it up to your head to make a phone call but if you like big screens and you like Live Tiles it's gonna be a good phone to look at so I'm talking to our head of mobile title 10 you had a chance take a look at the device before I did and did his first impressions now saying one of things that I'm gonna miss when I use this on my daily driver is a Google now and you brought up a good point that why do I need to Google now and I can have all my information right on my home screen with live tiles that's sort of a very good point to make live tiles can show you a ton of information so looking forward to putting it through its paces and see how the operating system has involved since I last used Windows Phone before I run away I do want to confirm the AT&T model here does not have wireless charging we tried it on two separate sheet chargers and neither of them worked any questions you guys happy sure to let me know eat them in the comments down below do a full review here of the Lumia 1520 sure check out
