Comparison: nokia lumia 1020 vs nokia lumia 625

What better way to end the comparisons of the Nokia Lumia 1020 than against a relative, a little brother: the Lumia 625. Both smartphones have competent features, standing out one over the other mainly in the camera and RAM, as we will see later on.. We are talking about two terminals where the price difference is tremendous and that we can check throughout the article if you think it is justified or not. Let the last fight begin !:

Screens: The Lumia 625 has 4.7 inches and a WVGA resolution 800 x 480 pixels, which features IPS technology, which gives it very well defined colors and a great viewing angle. The one of the Lumia 1020 for its part has a size of 4.5 inches AMOLED , which makes it brighter and less consuming, in addition to being accompanied by ClearBlack technology, allowing the screen to be perfectly readable under the light of the Sun. Its resolution is 1280 x 768 pixels, giving it a density of 334 pixels per inch. Both smartphones use Corning glass to protect their screens from bumps and scratches: Gorilla Glass 3 for the Lumia 1020 and Gorilla Glass 2 for the Lumia 625.

Processors: they are practically identical, being a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core 1.5 GHz SoC, if we refer to the Lumia 1020 and a Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU S4 dual-core 1.2 GHz if we talk about the Lumia 625. With its graphics chips the same thing happens: an Adreno 225 GPU accompanies the Lumia 1020, and on the part of the 625 we have the Adreno 305, with faster processing . On the other hand, the RAM memory is quite different, since the 625 model has only 512 MB, while the Lumia 1020 has 2 GB. As you can imagine, both terminals are accompanied by Microsoft's Windows Phone 8.

Cameras: from the Lumia 625 we have a 5 megapixel sensor accompanied by autofocus, x4 digital zoom and an LED flash, among other functions. As for the 1020 model, its lens features 41 megapixels, features six Carl Zeiss lenses, PureView technology, Xenon / LED flash, optical stabilization, and incredible true high-resolution zoom. The front cameras of the Nokia Lumia 1020 and 625 have 1.2 and 0.3 megapixels respectively, however useful for making video calls or the occasional photo. Both terminals make video recordings in Full HD 1080p quality, although the Lumia 1020 has a x6 zoom without loss of quality and its Nokia Rich Recording function, which provides it with very clear audio.

Internal memories : the Lumia 1020 has two models for sale, one 32 GB and the other 64 GB , while the Lumia 625 has a single 8 GB model , although it is accompanied by a microSD card slot, a feature that does not accompany the 1020. Both smartphones have free cloud storage of 7 GB.

Designs: the nokia Lumia 1020 has dimensions of 130.4 mm high × 71.4 × 10.4 millimeters thick and weighs 158 grams . Its casing is made up of a perfect union between its front and rear, resulting in a single piece of polycarbonate that gives it great robustness. We have it available in yellow, white and black. The Lumia 625 is 133.2mm high x 72.2mm wide x 9.2mm thick and 159 grams. We can define its design as a tactile monoblock that we can find available in red, black, white, yellow and green.

Batteries : the two phones have the same capacity, 2000 mAh, although the larger screen size, RAM and processor, among other characteristics of the Lumia 1020, we assume that it will have somewhat less autonomy. But as always, depending on the regularity with which games are used or videos are played, said autonomy may vary from one model to another.

Prices: the nokia Lumia 1020 is a high-end smartphone with very good features, although it is still very expensive: we can find it in black and free for 562 euros on the website of pccomponentes.com. The Nokia Lumia 625 is much cheaper: we can find it blank for 223 euros through the pccomponentes website or for 229 euros in mediamarkt, free in both cases, as shown by the nokia website itself. Another option is even to make it our free, as long as we assume the commitment of permanence stipulated by the operator.
