The 1520 will be better as it has surround sound built in (not sure if the 930 has) also bigger screen at 1080p to really enjoy it. But the deal breaker is the 1520 can accept SD cards up to 120GB and the 930 has no SD card.

The 930 also has 5.1 sound. It was actually the first device to feature this as it came with 8.1 preinstalled.

It has to be the 1520, just for the great battery life. 2.5 hours video recording... No problems.

Storage space will be the deciding factor, As the 930 doesn't have an SD card slot, you will probably use up the available storage very quickly.
I would opt for a 1520 with a 128GB SD card installed.....

Woah what a way to hijack a thread..

To the OP, if you live in the US get the 1520.3 if size is not a big deal and also it has the advantage of a larger battery + mSD card (make sure you use a Class10 card for optimal performance and two names that you shouldn't have a problem with are the SanDisk Extreme or SanDisk Extreme Plus cards).

However size is an issue, the 930 is still a stellar device (the internals are almost the same as the 1520) bar the smaller battery and lack of mSD card slot.

Plus the 930 does not have Glance screen due to the fact it uses a type of Amoled Screen which lacks display memory, therefore it is currently incompatible with Glance (this may or may not change in the future). Also if your curious, about double tap to wake - it is supported in the 930.

Here is a link to a comparison between the two.

My opinion is once one goes for the 1520 there is no way back on any other Lumia device except the next big screen stuff coming up (whatever that is)
Screen is too beatiful, pictures too, audio is overall nice, but what i love is that pureblack real estate which never has eyes tired.
I can't help on autonomy for shooting videos....i use something different for that.

Hope this helps
