Consumers looking for the best Windows phone should go for the Nokia 1520, as tech experts have declared it as the 'best Windows phone' to hit the market, according to Digital Spy.

First off, the Lumia 1520 is the first Windows Phone to hit the market, and it is reportedly fast. With Windows Phone 8 already snappy on dual-core handsets, the quad-core Snapdragon 800 inside the 1520 makes the device as quick as lightning, notes the Digital Spy.

The camera of the Lumia 1520 is quite impressive, with 20 megapixels to capture and enrich those unforgettable moments. The size of this Windows smartphone is quite massive, as it boasts of a 6-inch 1080p IPS display encased in polycarbonate shell measuring  162.8 x 85.4 x 8.7 mm. Despite the size, the Nokia Lumia 1520 feels light in the hand, and not at all bulky. The phone's 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage and expandable memory of 64Gb microSD storage makes it the perfect phone for those who love music and movies, according to Today.

This incredibly impressive set of features prompted tech experts to declare that the Nokia Lumia 1520 is the best WinPhone to hit the market this year. In its review of the device, Stuff says, "the 1520 is the biggest, most powerful Windows Phone to date, and continues Nokia's legacy of pushing the Windows Phone envelope." Meanwhile, Digital Spy has expressed the same opinion, saying that, "If we had to pick a Windows Phone right now based on hardware alone, the Lumia 1520 would be the one."  

Having the Nokia Lumia 1520 experience leaves quite a mark on tech geeks that this Windows Phone could reportedly prompt iPhone and android fans to switch sides. Today notes that the Lumia 1520 is "lightning fast, has a camera that is the best in the phablet class and the revamped music app is sure to get anyone's feet tapping. But will that be enough to convince people to ditch their iPhones and Android devices? I think it might."

The Nokia Lumia 1520 retails at S$749, and comes in colors red,  yellow, black and white.
