Nokia's Lumia 1520's launch has been delayed. Reuters cites sources familiar with the matter that the cause of this is from the Microsoft deal. It'll be a few weeks later than expected.

Though officially unannounced, the phone is rumored to have a screen larger than 5 inches and a 20 megapixel PureView camera.

According to Reuters' sources, the Lumia 1520 was supposed to launch in New York later this month but has since been pushed back because of Nokia's deal with Microsoft.

Microsoft announced that it plans to acquire Nokia's handset business for $7.2 billion. The deal has not yet closed, so Nokia and Microsoft are still operating as separate companies.

No launch date was given just yet.
