Those who love Windows Phone like me & eagerly waiting for slimmest Lumia with aluminium body here is a good news for you’ll too.

Flipkart, the online retailer in India, has all three variants of the Lumia 925 listed – black, grey and white, priced at Rs. 33,999/- with expected delivery by 4th week of August. To Know you, Nokia Lumia 925 comes with 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon Plus CPU, 1GB of RAM, a 4.5-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 1280×768 pixels, and 16GB of internal memory.

Unique to the Lumia 925 is its camera that improves on the 8.7-megapixel OIS camera found in the Lumia 920. Nokia improved its PureView image algorithms, and now it has added a 6-element lens with one element being made up of glass for sharper images. Of course, like before the device retains optical image stabilization (OIS). On the front, there’s also 1.2-megapixel snapper.

On the software front the Lumia 925 will be the first Nokia smartphone to ship in India with the Window Phone 8 Amber update, which includes upgraded Nokia Here maps stack, a glance feature and a new smart camera app. The phone will also be eligible to get the Nokia Pro camera app

It also happens to be the lightest and thinnest Lumia smartphone at 8.5mm and users can latch on a wireless charging cover to enable wireless charging on the device. Previously, the Lumia 920 had wireless charging built-in from the get go, but Nokia opted to remove it from the 925, in order to make it thinner and lighter.

Update: Now here is news from Times of India that along with Nokia Lumia 925, Nokia is also launching Lumia 625 in India at the same time ie by end of this August month.

Lumia 625, on the other hand will boast the largest screen seen on a Lumia smartphone to date at 4.7-inches, but will be a decidedly mid-range smartphone placed between the Lumia 720 and the Lumia 620. Its main USP will be the large screen at an affordable price point.
