Nokia Lumia 2520 Review

AT&T (RX-114)     See other variants reviews Score: 68.6 / 100

Nokia Lumia 2520 is a powerful Windows portable tablet launched in October 2013, packing a Quad-Core CPU ticking at 2200 megahertz, a big size 10.1 inches touch-screen, and 2 cameras, a 6.7 mega-pixels back side camera and a 2 megapixels front side camera.

It appears that Nokia didn't care so much about the weight in this 21.69 ounces tablet. This device is offerred in a variety of colors: black, blue, red and white. This device is quite a compact tablet, taking into consideration it presents a 10.1 inches display and it's only 10.51" long. The Nokia Lumia 2520 is slim and practical, being just 0.35 inches thick.

Nokia equipped this device with a good looking 10.1-inches display, and a 1080 x 1920 (Full HD) resolution, giving this tablet a very good graphical experience. Its display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, with an incredible 665 cd/m2 brightness and is multi-touch enabled.

Nokia decided to equip the Lumia 2520 using a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 chip, packing an exceptional Quad-Core CPU clocking at 2.2 GHz with a huge 2 GB RAM memory. Graphic calculations usually eats lots of CPU cycles, so it has an additional Adreno 330 GPU clocking at 450 megahertz to take some work out of the CPU. The Lumia 2520 has a 32 GB huge internal memory and an external SD slot, which allows you to install hundreds of apps without having to worry about filling the tablet.

This tablet is equipped with two cameras, a 6.7 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 2 mega-pixels front side camera. It is also able to film 1920x1080 Full HD videos at 30 frames per second. The camera also includes geo tagging and auto-focus.

The Lumia 2520 has an incredible 8000 mAh non-replaceable battery that provides this tablet an impressive battery life. An issue to take into account is that the Nokia Lumia 2520's battery is non-removable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to lose its charge, though with its 8000 mAh you will probably replace this tablet before it becomes a real problem.

This tablet offers WiFi connectivity (and it can be provided to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE (4G) high speed internet connection and also HSPA+ data connection, a slower 4G variation and fast 3G data connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Nokia Lumia 2520 uses a Micro SIM card to connect to GSM networks.

The Lumia 2520 also includes some cool characteristics such as Near Field Communication (NFC), Bluetooth (enables communication with other bluetooth portable tablets and accessories) and GPS Localization, and a couple sensors likeAccelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

Nokia is selling this tablet for 580 dollars, which is a very high price for this kind of tablet. No matter whether you want this tablet device for work, are looking for a tablet to majorly use social networks, want it to take many photographs or need a device to play games, this tablet device is definitely a good choice for you. This tablet is packed with SIM Door Key, Nokia Wall Charger AC-300 and Quick guide.
