^ thanks.. that's probably it , it makes sense since Nokia have been using Toshiba sensors for a while now.
I like this part
"Toshiba’s previous king of pixel miniaturization was a 16 mp 1/2.3″ sensor with 1.34 µm pixel size. The pixels on their new ‘TCM5115CL’ sensor are now only 1.2 µm in size — necessary to accomodate the higher count on the same surface. This of course translates into worse signal-to-noise ratio, and an even lower diffraction limit than before. What this means is that the new sensor will probably be even noisier than the old one, and that chances of it to be able to resolve pixel-level detail are close to zero, considering that your typical 20 mp compact rarely sports a fast prime lens."
They did the same thing with the 1020 sensor... |

Nice phone with very nice excusive apps from Nokia.. I liked the mirroring screen app allowing to stream 1520's wireless to any display through an internet browser.
But all in all, not killer device. Had it had a smart pen input and a slot for it ala the Note, then it would have been that killer device.
It seems all OEMs are missing the point that it is not only the screen size what made the Note popular! The S-Pen functionality is simply amazingly useful!
Had the 1520 had the same functionality I would have aimed for it over the 1020.
I was very tempted by the Note III. But Android is not my thing. While WP frustrates me at times, Android has its issues as well. And being all deeply bound and relying on Windows 8 for my main PC, WP will always have upper hand for me. It integrates more seamlessly with a W8 machine..
I won't get the 1020 right away though. Will wait for the price to go down. Or maybe wait at least to get hints of its successor and see if an upgrade would be worth.. As it seems Nokia are announcing their high-end PureView mid year.. Maybe next year Microsoft would push it even earlier, maybe second quarter release with Windows Phone 8.1..
EDIT: Would love to see how the 1520 will compare against the G2 and Z1 btw.. Waiting for these comparisons..

The app collection on WP is pretty good and it will only get better since they have some momentum now.
Instashit is coming, so its flipboard.. and several other useless one like that  |

^ not bad.. these are all captured with the Black software update which should bring improvements in noise reduction and color reproduction.
I am guessing those algorithms might be different for the 1020, but since both phones are oversampling, I am guessing that they are similar. |
