I am struggling to get use to the size of the device. I was hoping to be able to use the 1520 as a phone and somewhat a tablet so I dont have to carry two devices. I also have a lenovo Tablet 2 with 8.1 Professional. But the 1520 seems like it is just too big to carry as an everyday phone. Also only the mail app and internet explorer will work in horizonal mode as well as pictures. So the home screen unlike a tablet will not work in landscape mode. This is really frustrating.
I also am frustrated with the problem where an app opens sometimes when I am using my finger to scroll down the screen. Happens quite a bit and of course as others have mentioned the volume and power buttons are hard to get to. I have owned the 820, 925, and a Samsung ATIV Neo and by far the 1520 has the best screen which I do like for reading documents, etc. But I keep convincing myself it is just not realistic to carry this thing around. I have had it for about four days and have forced myself to use it instead of going back to the 925. Anyone else struggling? If so was there a way you were able to resolve?
