if you have the patience and can wait, then by all means wait until the new devices are announced. if you cannot, and you have done enough research on the 1520 and feel comfortable with it, then get that.
3D touch LOL what a joke. I mean who cares. Now if the 1525 had something unique say the ability to go vertical with tile height then we're talking.
But 3D...again I'll pass and save myself the extra $300-$400 no contract price over the 1520.
Well you you already know all specs please by all means have us informed. Otherwise, such blunt criticism without full knowledge of the device is uncalled for.
They obviously cant make 3D touch the only difference between both devices.
No they can't, but WP doesn't take advantage of the HD screen on the 1520 now so I stand by what I said about not waiting for the 1525.
And here is link regarding the possible changes: Nokia Lumia 1525 Teaming Up with T-Mobile: Specs Speculations - International Business Times
Interesting, but the OS needs to catch up to the hardware or there is no point in paying more.
Not necessarily. L1520 is almost a year old and L1525 might be out in a few months.
The value of L1520 will depreciate with the release of L1525.
So its still economically wiser to wait. (If you waited a year already, few months wont kill you).
Well everyone know WP is still a developing platform and some developments have been made to further utilize devices like L1520.
And Microsoft has a lot of things to come, especially next year, with the merging of WP and WRT, you would know that Microsoft is planning to climb real fast and if you are on a long term commitment, you would want a device that is future proof enough to avoid getting left behind (like with some devices on the leap from WP 7.x to 8.x).
Availability date is far from release date.
Nokia Con event happens in Japan on July 27.
RM-1017 is most likely a Lumia 530 variant.
Good points, but where did you get the idea about Aug 15?
THAN PROBabely people like me shuld buy lumia 1520 ...
nokia con is on 27th july ...

and after that. ... on 15th aug. at 12am i am going to order a lumia 1520 .. if no new lumia's are launched .. lol
We are sailing the same boat man. If by 20th of August there isn't news of the release date of the L1525 (or if the promised release date is past September), around Aug 25th I will pick up the L1520.
hahah yesh we are .!!!!
lets hope they launch new lumia this week .. ahahha
so we can get out f the boat ... and buy a lumia ..
Now that MS has (semi) officially killed McLaren ...
don't know what (hi end) phones are in the pipeline. The Lumia 1525 is an unsubstantiated rumor (my previous reference to vaporware).
It appears you should pull the trigger on the Lumia 1520 ... or WAIT for MS to announce their future direction.
I'm getting a bad feeling about the future of WinPhone !
