Nokia Lumia 525

He has been talked about for a long time and he is finally among us. Nokia has unveiled the successor to the Lumia 520 directly on its website. The Nokia Lumia 525 arrives to take over from the successful Finnish entry-level terminal.

Maintaining design and following practically all the specifications, the Nokia Lumia 525 seeks to surpass its predecessor in the RAM memory section. From now on, thanks to the step from 512MB to 1GB of RAM, those who opt for this Lumia family smartphone will no longer have to worry about not being able to access some Windows Phone app.

Nokia Lumia 525, specifications

Nokia has not wanted to change what seems to have worked so well with the Lumia 520. Its successor arrives with the same specifications: processor Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core 1 GHz, 8 GB internal storage and 1430 mAh battery. Enough to provide a smooth experience with the Windows Phone 8 running inside.

What Nokia has changed is RAM memory. From the 512 MB that the Lumia 520 came with, we went to 1 GB of RAM memory that will accompany the rest of the specifications in the Lumia 525. Thanks to this change the from Espoo make sure the little one in your family doesn't have problems with Windows Phone apps and updates and extend its useful life that little bit longer.

Other specifications include a microSD memory slot, 802.11 b/g/n WLAN connectivity, Bluetooth 4.0, and all the sensors you'd expect from a proper smartphone. All in the same body as its predecessor.

Keeping the exterior

If practically nothing changes on the inside, neither does it on the outside. The Nokia Lumia 525 has exactly the same external appearance as the Lumia 520 It maintains its dimensions at 119.9x64x9.9 mm and its weight at 124 grams. Something understandable given that the rest of the phone is exactly the same.

There's the same 4-inch IPS LCD display with WVGA (800x480) resolution This ratio translates to a density of 235 pixels by inches. The touch screen includes the same Super Sensitive technology that adds extra sensitivity to the equipment allowing it to be operated even with gloves.

The cameras also repeat. On the back we have the same 5-megapixel main camera, without flash, and capable of recording at 720p. It is far from its older brothers but it is enough for a terminal that aims to be the entry of users to the smartphone world.

Nokia Lumia 525, price and availability

Taking into account the sector of the market that the Nokia Lumia 525 is targeting, a key variable is its price Nokia has not made yet official announcement about it, but hopefully its new entry-level terminal will remain the most affordable Windows Phone 8 on the market.

It is not yet known when it will be available or in which markets, but we will update the information as Nokia reveals data on its new mobile .
