Estimated size of Nokia Lumia 1520 phablet reveals it to be comparable to the Samsung Mega 6.3

Seeing as it'due south the weekend, a vacation one for those in the states, it seems appropriate now to highlight some guesstimation on the size of the Nokia Lumia 1520. Sure, we'll know more in the coming weeks on the bodily dimensions just there's no harm in calculation a petty math to requite a rough idea.

Revealed in a photograph earlier this week, the Nokia Lumia 1520 was placed next to the Lumia 1020 for size comparison. Windows Phone Central tin now confirm that the photo is legitimate through a 2nd source who attested to its actuality. Based off of that image, forum member Cornelius took a break from his bachelor thesis to summate the Lumia 1520'due south exact size.

While nosotros're not engineers nor math buffs ourselves, Cornelius laid out his methodology, which seems sound to the states:

Applied perspective correction in Photoshop to the leaked photo
Make some smaller corrections, to make sure, that the visible tiles are quadratic
Calculate the dimensions based on counting pixels

Based off of a 6-inch display, the Lumia 1520'southward device size would be 169.9 mm x 88.9 mm (6.69 in x 3.5 in).

For comparing, the Samsung Milky way Notation two, which has a smaller v.v-inch display, comes in at 151.1mm 10 80.5 mm (5.95 in 10 3.17 in), making the Lumia 1520 12.five% longer and x.5% wider.

Merely what most the even larger Samsung Galaxy Mega half-dozen.3? That massive device comes in at 168 mm x 88 mm (6.vi. in x 3.46 in)—in other words, it's fairy comparable, even though the Mega sports a slightly larger display. Surprisingly though, the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.iii features but a 720P display while the Nokia Lumia 1520 will have a college resolution 1080P one.

(Cheque out Android Central'south review of the Mega to learn more about that monster of a device.)

Either way, that'due south i large device, folks.

Of course, the conclusion is only every bit good as the assumptions fabricated, in addition to the math. For instance, in a leaked photo from January, the Lumia 1520's display bezel looked to exist much thinner nigh the bottom, which could modify the dimensions.

Practice you recall y'all can exercise improve than Cornelius? Have some information that could aid elucidate a better decision? Hop into our forums and add you lot two cents.
