Just like other Lumia devices, Nokia has blessed Lumia 925 with incredible features for photography freaks. 8.7-megapixel PureView camera is the part of Nokia Lumia 925. It features Optical Image Stabilization and Carl Zeiss optics. It boasts one additional lens than Lumia 920 and Lumia 928. As per Nokia, this one more lens will let users click high quality pictures in the bright conditions. Not only the bright conditions, but this one more lens will improve the quality of pictures taken in low-light as well. In the recently announced Lumia 928, the Xenon flash technology is used, but in Lumia 925, it is replaced by dual-LED flash setup.
Smart Camera software in this smartphone will allow users to take burst of 10 photos at 5MP in very quick succession. Other camera features of the smartphone are ‘Best Shot’ to enable users pick the best of burst, ’Action Shot’ (works same as Drama Shot does on Galaxy S4) and ‘Motion focus’, which allows users to add motion blur to static objects. All these features make Lumia 925 as the best Lumia device for the photography enthusiasts.
Nokia Lumia 925 has 4.5-inch screen which offers 1280×768 resolution. The smartphone is powered by 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor and 1GB RAM. So, the device is good for those who demand speed in their smartphone(s). The internal storage capacity of this smartphone is 16GB. Sadly, there is no slot for microSD. Apart from 8.7-megapixel rear camera, there is 1.2-megapixel front-facing which allows users to do video calling. Other features include the 4G LTE connectivity and NFC.
Quite surprisingly, the Wireless Charging is not part of Lumia 925. Like many basic Lumia devices, the wireless charging in Lumia 925 can be enjoyed by fitting it into thin case.
