Lots of people say the 1520 is too big. Its personal preference and for me its great. I would even go bigger. Old rumors say there may be up to 7in wp8 phones Microsoft News | Rumor: Microsoft Working To Scale Up WP8 To 7″ And Scale Down Windows RT To 8.4″
I expect most people to respond with "six is big enough/too big already" but would anyone get a 6.5 or 7in phone? I would. 6" to 7" is not as dramatic as the jump from 2.5" to 3.5", 3" to 4", or 4" to 5" but I could imagine a 7inch phone with 2560x1440 resolution. It's just a matter of time before top Android phones push this resolution (http://www.engadget.com/2013/10/16/vivo-xplay-3s-quad-hd/) and I hope Nokia stays ahead of the spec curve instead of behind

Re: Bigger than 6 inches?

I would be the first to buy a 7 or 8 inch nokia tablet with functions similar to my 925 with WP8 on it (not RT)...
With support for a Snapdragon 800 quad-core and HD resolution, wp8 is ready for the "little" tablet market.
And, Nokia, while you're at it, add a removable battery and a micro SD reader to it !

Merry Christmas to everyone

I would go as high as 6.5". I need a big phone as I have man hands, love media and desire for people to see me with something different. A bigger 1520(1530??) in yellow is highly appealing to me. ��

For me my answer is no. I have a 6" 1520, a 8" Dell Venue, a 10.6 Surface RT and a 17.3" laptop. I think I'm pretty well covered now.

I came from the Xperia Z Ultra and its 6.4 inch goodness. However, I also used an 8 in tablet capable of calls and didn't enjoy that at all.

I could easily go for a 7" but would prefer it be flexible oled that can be folded into a smaller form factor. That is the real future of phone/tablet convergence and it seems Samsung and LG are well ahead of the game in that respect.

Yep I will go bigger. Not sure how much till I see the phone in my hand. I can't wait but I will have to. My contract is not up with AT&T till middle of 2015. :cry:

I went from the samsung note to the Lumia 1520. The phone increased more in length than width.

I have the Sony ultra z and it's very nice. It is big but what makes the difference is its sooooo very thin that it's manageable. Thinking about selling it and moving to a note 3

Man, I don't know anymore. I swore when this 1520 was still a rumor that the phablet crowd was crazy and out of their mind for wanting such a large phone. Now I cant even put this phone down. I don't think I can ever go back to anything smaller.

Of course not!! Bigger then 6"??? That is STUPID!! Who would want a phone that big??? Sweet mother of Heaven, manufacturers are insane, out of control, need to be stopped!! I say we all ban together and picket and...

Wait a minute... what definition of screen? How fast a processor? IT DOES WHAT FOR HOW LONG??? It looks that bad-**** ON TOP OF EVERYTHING ELSE???
