The new Lens here is Smart Camera which is pre-installed.

The main camera has the same 8.7-megapixel lens as the Lumia 920, and Nokia’s software enhancements, which it calls Lenses, kick in to add features. Oh, and the “glance screen” which shows the time. Nokia also adds Here Maps and Here Drive for navigation.

Nokia does its usual job of beefing up Windows Phone with freebie exclusive Nokia apps, and Nokia Music is just the start. As a result I was administering power boosts mid-afternoon during testing. Now, I’ve said before that I am a sucker for Nokia’s freebie streaming music service and whenever I test a Lumia it gets a thorough workout. I found it was pretty good at getting me through a working day if I steered clear of Nokia Music. There’s a 2000mAh battery inside the sealed chassis.

Original_slideimages/Nokia-Lumia-925-inhand-3.JPG Button and connector placement is absolutely no surprise with headset and charge slots on the top and three buttons on the right edge – a long volume rocker and two shorter power and camera buttons. The chassis is a sealed unit so your microSIM lives in a slot along the top edge.
NOKIA LUMIA REVIEWS BLUETOOTH
I’ve already noted that this is a 4G LTE handset and alongside the usual Wi-Fi and Bluetooth there’s also NFC. Nokia has thrown plenty of connectivity at the Lumia 925. Of course you get your 7GB of SkyDrive, too. This matters because as is often the case with Windows Phone you can’t expand on the storage with microSD cards. If you go anywhere but Vodafone you’ll get 16GB of built in storage, but Vodafone’s version has 32GB. Well, the processor is a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 and there’s 1GB of RAM in support. It’s impressively responsive and bodes well for cold winter days.Īnyone reading this and still wanting to compare the Lumia 925 with its predecessor will want to know how the innards stack up. Nokia calls it ‘Super-sensitive’ touch, and basically it means the tip of a fingernail or a gloved finger will be as readily recognised as a fully-fledged naked fingertip press. On the other hand, the touch sensitivity of the display is fantastic. This is a feature of Lumia handsets, and it’s one I’m definitely not keen on. My only real gripe about the screen is that it is very reflective. AMOLED really does suit Windows Phone too, and Nokia has added some colour saturation and ‘temperature’ settings in case you want to vary how vivid the colours appear. Yes, you can get higher resolutions if you avoid Windows Phone, but the blocky tiles of Windows Phone do well at this resolution. The 4.5in screen delivers 1280 x 768 pixels of simply brilliant quality. Lumia 920 owners will be pleased to learn that the screen size and resolution of the 925 matches their handset. If wireless charging doesn’t float your boat then you’d probably rather have the slimmer chassis than the feature, and if you want it you can buy it and add thickness to the handset via a cover. That’s gone here, and instead you need to use a cover that’s an accessory if you want wireless charging. The Lumia 920 supported wireless charging right out of the box.

It’s a big phone, sure, but it is comfy to hold. The shiny back of the Lumia 920 has been replaced by a flat, slightly rubbery feeling plate and the metal sides – not something we’re used to seeing from Nokia, and in fact this is a Lumia first – add gravitas.
