I was shocked to see Lumia 1520 having Gorilla Glass 2 instead of 3 and LCD instead of AMOLED. 6 inch is a big screen, therefore will be more vulnurable to damage if falls. You need a stronger glass for a big screen
Every glass will break after a fall, it's about scratch resistance, not being indestructible.
I consider LCD update. Especially as Lumia 1520 has been universally been said to be best or among the best screens they have ever seen.I was shocked to see Lumia 1520 having Gorilla Glass 2 instead of 3 and LCD instead of AMOLED. 6 inch is a big screen, therefore will be more vulnurable to damage if falls.

Will the 1520 wirelessly charge up on my JBL Power Up Charger that I use for my 920?
Is GG3 really that much better than GG2? Correct me if I'm wrong as I'm not too well-informed about this kind of thing, but I really couldn't imagine it making that much of a difference for anyone.
Also, you can't say LCD is a backwards step from AMOLED. LCD vs AMOLED is a purely subjective matter.
GG3 is the current generation compared to previous generation GG2. So it has to be stronger, just like the way GG2 is stronger than GG1
Well obviously it's a generation ahead because one has the number 3 at the end and the other has the number 2 at the end lol. My question is, how do you know it's really that much better?
Then don't drop your phone. Problem solved.
Maybe I am crazy, but going with LCD, doesn't it make Nokia Glance pointless, since it cannot take advantage of lighting only the required pixels (like on an AMOLED)?
Bigger screen is more vulnerable compared to small screen. Whether its scratches or breakage. When they implemented Gorilla Glass 3 in 1020, there was no point of moving back to glass 2, with 1520.
