SINGAPORE – Continuing to redefine smartphone innovation, Nokia introduced two large screen Lumia smartphones, the Lumia 1520 and Lumia 1320 in Singapore today. With a 6-inch screen and the latest software advancements for Windows Phone, the Lumia 1520 and Lumia 1320 are perfectly suited for entertainment and productivity. A new third column of tiles on the home screen means people can see and do more on a larger screen. Bringing larger displays to the award-winning Lumia design, the new format is coupled with some of the most advanced camera innovations so people can capture and share the world around them.
“Mobile devices are at the center of consumers’ lives as they look to capture and share experiences on the go,” said Vlasta Berka, Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Nokia Pan Asia. “Today we’re inviting people in Singapore to switch to Nokia. With the Nokia Lumia 1520 and 1320, our first 6-inch Lumia smartphones, we’re delivering industry-leading design and imaging innovation to bigger devices, with experiences that are unique to Lumia and Windows Phone.”
The Lumia 1520 offers a 6-inch screen and a vivid 1080p full HD display for outstanding outdoor readability.

For outstanding video experiences, the Nokia Lumia 1520 camera captures full HD video with crystalclear audio. It also includes Nokia Rich Recording with four microphones, providing directional stereo recording capabilities to capture distortion-free audio from the preferred direction for accurate and clear sound.
