Polls are fun. They’re a good way to quickly get a feel for how the Windows Phone community feels on a particular topic. We just learned that the Nokia Lumia 1520 becomes available on November 22nd here in the United States. We also just learned from a close source that the yellow Lumia 1520 might be scarce. So we’re curious, what color are you getting?
We had a poll just a few days ago asking whether you planned on getting the Lumia 1520. The results were pretty surprising. The results showed 45.58% of you saying you planned on getting the phone, 16.63% of you planned on waiting to see initial reviews, while 37.77% are going to wait for a smaller device with a 1080p display.
We’re curious what color you’re getting if you’ve already placed a pre-order or plan on getting a Lumia 1520 when you can. You’ve got yellow (Dan’s favorite), black (George’s favorite), white, and red as options for the Lumia 1520. We wish we could get cyan, but not this time.
Anyways, take the poll and let us know your color! Then head to the comments to tell us why your color rules.

Yellow! Appropriate color for what is a zippy phone!
Got a yellow one yesteraday, most amazing phone ever. So breathtaknig.
If you want to know the Specifications and defects Nokia Nokia Lumia 1520 for Arabic
<a href="http://mobilearb.blogspot.com/2013/11/Nokia-Lumia-1520-Specifications-de... Lumia 1520</a>
....and you'll have the WPCentral app optimized for 1080p screens on 11/22/13?
The smaller one.
Why you wanna buy phone with 16gb.Os may take 4 so you have left 12.Add 20 apps and you are done.Att sucks and NOKIA is a stupid company.
What are you doing here poor little lost troll? I'm sure you're sisters over at the Samdung are worried sick by now!
microsd dumbarse
Red!!!
I preordered the 1520 from the Microsoft store. Just out of anxious curiosity, does anyone know if the November 22 release date means that the 22nd is the day the phone will ship or when it will be delivered?
I just preordered a yellow 1520 from att.com. It said it will ship on or around the 19th, so i imagine it will arrive on the 22nd. I would assume it would be the same for you.
Boo Hoo.... You poor Americans..
The Lumia 1020 only became available here in South Africa THIS MONTH!
We will be getting this crazy monster Lumia only in Feb 2014!
was seriously considering this phone as my contract is up for upgrade next month, and I am planning to get me that stunning yellow 1020 for Christmas :) (CANT WAIT!!) but that 20 megapixel just doesnt cut it on the 1520.. ONLY against the 1020... that is!
I am a little worried that the CPU on the 1020 might be a bit too mediocre to stand up to what 2014 & 2015 might bring to the smartphone handset experience, but Hey... my Lumia 800 brought me this far with no major hiccups... exept for high end gaming that is.... sigh..
ANYHOW! I want the yellow Lumia 1020 and vodacom (my "carrier" for you Americans... we call it our network) seems to only stock the BLACK F73CK1N6 version.... WHHHYYY!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..... Sorry.... needed to get that off my chest...
Im getting the black Nokia cover for some piece of mind coz I think the combination of the black on yellow looks sick!! If any of you fellow Nokian Windows Phone Microsoft junkies in here have a 1020 layout like that please show me some pics that I can drool over! :)
Have a awesome Christmas season Windows Phone Central team and everyone reading this!
cheeerz vir eers
Transparent. Then no one will see what a dork i look like when making a phone call.
Don't care. No qi, no sale
Yellow
ordered my yellow 1520 last night !! wireless chargering, i dont care, 16GB plenty for me,
Cyan
My 920 was white, my 1020 is white but at this size I think I would want a darker color to "slim" it a bit.
White or yellow... Will need to see them in person to decide.
I want a 5 inch 925 successor, 1425?
RED RED RED. If red is a girl color is that why you guys but bright yellow cars
Used the 1520 at my local AT&T on release day and compared it to mt 920. In my personal opinion, the 1520 is too large for everyday use.
I got a cyan 800, white 900, yellow 920, so I'll go for red 1520.
This reminds me of the time I dipped my pecker in cheese wiz and ran around the house filled with Thanksgiving guests. Nobody noticed. Size does matter.
Nice phone am thinking it will be too big though hmmm not sure... Maybe I will wait and see if Nokia release a phone similar to the 929 in the UK
I an buying my wife the red one but I'm rolling with white this time around instead of my traditional black.
Iconic Yellow!
None. Because AT&T.
Hahah good
Is the red matte?
Black.
I stopped by AT&T Company Store... and checked out 1520, 1020, 925... ther was a 920 too... all demo pieces...
1520 Display is really awesome... its good that its IPS LCD... colors look natural... 1520 is huge!!!... but it fits in pocket well... for me its a two-hand device...
Camera is very good... Video is pretty stable... shaked camera while tatking video... still good steady video... OIS is good
The Lumia 1520 will be a HUGE winner!!!
Windows Phone is rapidly gaining market share worldwide!
Yes in poor country's no one care!
I would get Red if it wasn't glossy, but because it is i would get matte yellow
Loving the yellow. It would be awesome to see the 1520 spec sheet in a slightly smaller model. HD screen, massive camera and quadcore in a 4.5 - 5" model would be a little slice of perfection. But hey, I'm still getting this phone, its too sh!thot to ignore :)
This supports wireless charging via a Charging Case, Not sure why people keep saying complaining about it, I had a 920 and now a 1020 and i am ok with using the charging case.
Went with red for the 920 as a change of pace. with the 1520 I'm going back to Black.
Im going Android until Microsoft truly gets their WIndows Phone together.
Im tired of using an OS that feels like it's beta with little to no fixes or features added compared to the competition.
Definetly...if 8.1 doesn't make it...definitely share declines..
I Agree!
After having a Yellow 920 for a year I have found it inconvenient in regards to tile colours. An all white 1520 would be better as there is more room for colour customizations without suffering loss of wow factor within friends due to size.
None, the truth is that unless things change drastically for Windows Phones, i'm never buying a WP again.
Black
Red
YELLOW ALL THE WAY!
None from att
If only it was 64GB.... :(
^This, but I bet the 32GB version won't have Micro SD
All versions of the Lumia 1520 will have a microSD slot
I hope so, but it's still subject to change between now and release. If we're given a hard and final release date between now and the the 1520 release date, along with the details, then I will wait.
Hello Mr. Sabri, one question, what would you say are the possibilities of finding an unlocked 1520 before the 25th of November? Would a Microsoft store sell me one? Or any other outlet? Or at the very least could they email me the unlock code or something like that later? I will be on the US till the morning of the 25th only :(
If you refresh the page, you can vote again.
Yellow
Red for me...
Unfortunately none of these colors come in a five inch form factor and are available for T-Mobile and what else is new. Considering going to the dark side. Nokia when will you make desirable devices available for everyone at the same time. Supply the demand...I don't know anything. Excuse my mini rant.:)
I agree pull out the qi, I'm not buying...As someone who wasnt going to buy into wireless charging I can say once you go there you dont want to go back....although I also agree purple would be nice, leave the qi in thanks.
I went to the at&t store today to check the phone out, and I just wasn't feelin it for some reason. I've been online rolling my eyes at everyone saying it's too big, but it really is too big in my opinion.
That was the same reaction I had. I stopped by the Microsoft store today to check it out. I assumed I would be amazed. The screen is beautiful and while it would fit in the pocket of my jeans it just felt too big. I have large hands, but it never felt quite that comfortable to hold. I actually ended up looking to see if they had a 929 on display so that I could compare.
Yellow 32 GB (if available)
I really want this phone but I just don't like the color choice l guess I'll have to talk myself into the black one.
Same as my 920. RED!!!!!
I have a glossy red 920. Thinking of going for the 1520 with red or yellow
I have a glossy yellow Lumia 920 and matching Monster Purity Pro headphones and JBL PlayUp speaker (love the yellow!), so I should get the yellow 1520, but I'm not sure if I'll like the matte finish. Is the matte yellow just as vibrant as the glossy yellow, or does the color look duller? Anybody know?
Then again that glossy red looks gorgeous. Hmm, stick with the tried and true yellow or get the screamin' fire engine red? Decisions, decisions...
Thats exactly what I wondering too, because on reviews - youtube or on pics, yellow matte doesnt look as good as my 920 glossy..In fact, I dont know why they change glossy to matt, glossy looks so much more fancy and cool :)
I was at the AT&Tstore and saw a matte yellow Lumia 1020. I assume the 1520 will be the same. I compared it to my glossy yellow Lumia 920, and the yellow color is identical. It just doesn't have the glossy sheen. It's more like a satin finish. The finish looks similar to my yellow JBL PlayUp speaker. I was happy to see it's the same shade of vibrant yellow. I still like the glossy finish better, but the matte finish feels really nice to hold and is less slippery.
None. Staying with my 1020
No you mean you can't upgrade until 2015 :)
Just preordered the black from the microsoft store! +920 +1020 +1520
Us T-Mobile customers would be happy with any color.
I'm on T-Mobile, so no 1520 for me unless I win that Nokia contest... LOL! But out of these four colors, if I were to get this phone, I'd probably get either red or white.
Shiny red is wonderful
Still want to stick with 925 , only one thing i don't like in 925 is only 14gb memory on it
Any colour... Maybe not the black.
When will they release another cyan phone? I want the Cyan 1520
I would get the yellow since I already owned a white, red, blue and black windows phone.
Yellow. Go bold or go home.
How about green Nokia...had the N8 in green....gorgeous..miss that color
I'm stop in a contract with att
I'm stop?
Stuck
None unless its on T-Mobile
Yellow for sure!
No built in wireless charging, NO DEAL!
ATT, can you hear me now?
YELLOW!!!
I hope a successor to the 925 is coming
This is a true successor to 925 in every way
I don't know. Since my 920 screen shattered. I always using 2 casing. Otterbox and incipio dual pro.
If I were to get one, it would be red
I ordered my White one the minute I seen the deal from Microsoft. I actually had to pull over to read the article and order my L1520
Haha true dedication man
I want a black one with a Cyan case, but what I really want is a UK release date and price !!!!!!!!!
I'm gonna get the 929 colored one. ;)
White
My next phone will be yellow, cyan or red once my contract renews next year- unless I still have Verizon and my choice is black or black :P
all my devices are black so im gettin' the black one of course ...
Is it already sold out on ATT?
I would like to get the yellow or red, but I don't like AT&T.
Where's the "I'm not getting one" option?
For me, this isn't an upgrade when compared to my 1020.
You don't need to vote or even post if you're not interested.
Its an upgrade to the 1020 in almost every way (other than the camera)
less onboard memory, but microsd slot
faster CPU
higher resolution
larger display
better speakers
better microphones
IPS>AMOLED
Larger display is not an upgrade. It's the worst thing about it
Some like it small, some like it big,
some like it black, some like it white, some like it red, some like it yellow
It could be 4", 4½", 5", 6"
but if it's too big to fit then have a smaller one
Lumia 929 for Verizon
You are talking so much rubbish. The Lumia 1520 will destroy the 1020.
Do not dare compare the greatest phone in the world Lumia 1520 to any other phone!!
I just got a 1020 yellow.. Not getting one but would be white for something different if I needed it...
effing Red!! I mean if I don't get the Lumia 1020 instead. Its a great time to be a Windows Phone fan!!
Wish I could buy it.
Yellow
none. i have tmobile and my 920 in a drawer waiting on xbox video and comixoligy to come back.
None!! Lol.. T-Mobile. But if I could, I would pick red.. It's the best!
I already pre-ordered the yellow. Saw it in the AT&T store today and fell in love.
RED
Yellow. I would love to see the supposed lumia 929 have colors other than Black, white and Red.
Red for me
In the middle of my 2year on my 920...alas...
Thinking black with the yellow cover!
Always go with black and put any snap on "Yesso" or tpu cover I want! Who gets tired of black? 1020 here.....and loving it!
i had to post this :D
https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/q71/s720x720/1451...
Cool really i feel for u
Why doesn't Nokia offer cyan anymore?
+1520
Wish they had orange. Anyway way be waiting for the 32gig version, sporting white. No more gloss. Just to much stains that you can't rub off.
i had to post this
YELLOW
+1520
Because AT&T gimped the phone, I'm gonna pass this time around.
black, so that this big device will blend-in... my favorite color is yellow, but this big phone might seek too much attention! (unwanted may be)
No upgrade until February here, & even then not 100% on it now I've seen the size of it
Im getting RED
Ok, how many phones do you have now? lol
More than 20 now (I found 19 in 5 mins)
used to have more...one sold, one given away, rest? I don't know
Purple
oh god i want a fuking purple/black aluminum lumia so bad
CyAn
+1520
I noticed on the Microsoft pre-order page that the white Nokia Lumia 1520 has white buttons in the rendered picture.. Is that how it's going to be? AT&T's pre-order has the white with black buttons.. Unless there are really two different phone variations.
im surprised yellow is so popular, dont know why they push for colors when they keep removing options(cyan) they should offer all lumia phones in ALL colors if they want something to be proud of, whats the point of making lime green and orange "exclusive" to low end handsets? they are just making a lot of people angry most of the time having to choose black ¬¬
RED!!!
White or yellow still haven't decided yet
Both colors are great. Good luck with your dilemma. :)
Sweet!
Just saw this mother at AT&T. Holy Shit that's a big phone!
Yeah I stopped at my local store after work and was surprised how big it is. Having used a Note and LG Optimus G Pro I didn't think it would that bad. The screen is a beauty though.
Dude your so right, its almost comical how hige this phone is, but i have bad eyes and when i enlarged the text on it it all made sense for me!!
None
Is the yellow matte or glossy? I know that the red is glossy but I wasn't sure about the other colors. If I had to choose, definitely yellow! But I am very happy with my 925 :D
yellow is glossy.
Yellow is matte
Glossy is matte.
Yellow is matte, the only glossy is red.
Black is my favorite color
Green is a color, too, Nokia!
Lime, Lame, Lyme
Not getting a new phone until something < 5" and better than the 920 is out (unfortunately I can't stand the 1020's screen because of my PenTile allergy), but I'd pick black if I were to get a 1520. And not AT&T's version.
I want either red or black
B*tch please, I am not getting a 1520.
Red with 32 gigs
I went with black. This thing is already going to stand out when I use it, so the black should tone it down a bit.
Buys a 6" Nokia phone and wants to "tone it down". Haahaa
LOL well maybe less "tone it down" and more "not look like I am holding a brick (red), banana (yellow) or polar bear (white) to head." Not that I have a problem with color I have had both a white and cyan 920.
So it's a hunk of coal to your head then?
Lmfao
=D
Like getting a beige Lambo!
Actually it's like getting a black Lamborghini. =P
I've seen pics of black Lambos and they look like death knell stealth fighters. I shudder at the mere thought of seeing a beige one. :)
Red!
I want them all =D
White! Adapts best with all the different cases I want ^_^
True, true....
Ordered the black one on the MS store. Since the cover comes in black and covers up the phone anyway, it just made sense...
Cover is only available in black?
The free cover thrown in on the deal at the MS store is black.
Liked the yellow, but fell for the white...and the extras the Microsoft store offered. :)
Great deal... I went with the red.
The red is nice. Very close second for me.
Is the red glossy or matte?
Red is glossy.
Red is glossy. The other colors are matte.
I had yellow L920, its too bright for me... went with white. dint like MS offering only black case.. I want red.. So i will be happy.. with white and red.
Yellow 1020 here
32GB...oops wrong question
Nice one
LOL

Give me cyan or give me death
Same here.
They better get the 2520 in cyan.
They need the 2520 in all the colours they've had before, that includes Pink and hopefully a Grey like the foreign 920s.
Is your estate in order?
I'm happy with my 925 for the moment plus I'm on T-mobile so I can't which is why I'm hoping they eventually get a variant but hopefully a 5 inch like Verizon. But anyways if I had to make a choice I would go for the yellow. I also wish they would bring back cyan :(
Black... 929 that is.
THIS!
None! 920 until this time next year. Waiting for 8.1 anyway!
It will get 8.1.
I'm going to wait till a 5" with the same or better specs on at&t(Reup is in April).
I'm torn between white and red. Both pretty stellar colors.
RED
I feel that red is more of a girl colour, but I still like it even though I would not get it. Where's Cyan at?
There is no such thing as "girl color". Even pink can be manly.
Truth!
