No color options yet
No expandable memory (only 16GB)
Heavier then average
And no removable battery
Gap between metal and polycarbonate backing can collect dust. Not a huge improvement on the Lumia 920
It's hard to find anything terribly bad with the Lumia 925. Some may not like the microUSB port placement at the top of the phone
Some may not like the 16GB of internal storage and then there's that odd looseness in the back corners. But nothing is detr
Most features track somewhat behind industry leaders. Windows Phone still lacks some popular apps
Sub-par battery life
MicroUSB port is at the top
Which makes it awkward to use when it's plugged in
Not as powerful as high-end Android phones. Some popular apps are still missing from Windows Phone Marketplace
No faster than the Lumia 920
No built-in Wireless Charging cover
Poor battery life
Processor is a bit dated
Subpar speaker quality
Windows app store is limited compared to Apple and Google Play stores
The Lumia 925 is a little wide and squat
And sharp corners diminish handheld comfort. T-Mobile's version has 16GB of storage instead of 32GB
No expandable memory
Windows Phone still lacks key apps

Unusual design

Only 16GB of internal storage with no microSD card expansion
Design can be improved
The Lumia 920 had integrated wireless charging
But this is not present in the 925 model. It can be added via an optional charging cover
Which will increase the phone's bulk and price. As well as WiFi (802.11a/b/g/n)
Bluetooth (3.0) and LTE (up to 100Mb

Windows Phone ecosystem is still somewhat weak. A small update to a yearold phone.
In all, the Nokia Lumia 925 is a capable, high-end smartphone and we enjoyed our time with it. It crams all the core componentry from the Lumia 920 into a slimmer, lighter chassis, and has a slightly improved camera along with some fun extra features. ...
Good screen, solid performance, great camera, reasonable battery life, makes the most of Windows Phone 8's strengths
No wireless charging, Windows Phone's lack of consumer services may leave BYOD workers disappointed
The Nokia Lumia 925 is the best Windows Phone smartphone currently available. But it cuts one too many corners in its attempt to address customer complaints about the 920's design to achieve full marks....

With Smart Camera coming to the rest of the Lumia range sharpish, this headline feature is no reason to fork out for the top of the range Lumia 925. But the new lighter, easier to handle design certainly is. Not only that but six months on from our Lumia...

No memory card slot; Windows Phone still suffers from few apps and little quirks
Nokia has produced a stunning range of phones lately, including the entry-level Lumia 520 and great-value Lumia 720, and now it once again has a flagship premium smartphone to be proud of. The Lumia 925 packs a bright and tweakable high-res screen, a powe...

Classy design, fine screen, fast processor, excellent camera, good suite of Nokia extras
Windows Marketplace still not bulging with apps, where's the builtin wireless charging gone?
The Nokia Lumia 925 is a step up from its predecessor the 920 with its thinner, lighter casing and its improved camera. Screen and processor are largely unchanged and the Windows Store is still thinly stocked compared to its rivals, but Nokia compensate...
Fed up of Nokia’s chunky plastic casing? You’ll be right at home with the Nokia Lumia 925, which trades it in for a thinner 8.5mm metal frame instead, which angular lines and a cool touch. It’s a step up from the ugly as anything Lumia 820, and the plasticky Samsung Galaxy S4 too, even if it’s still not exactly a work of art, like HTC’s exquisitely chiselled HTC One or Apple’s iPhone 5.Making up
We have few to no complaints about the hardware, save for that we just wished the tank-like Nokia Lumia 920 looked like this last year. Our only criticisms are the platform: Windows Phone 8 is still very limited. Its keyboard lags behind the smarts of Android’s QWERTY options, and Internet Explorer feels clunky compared to Safari and Chrome for mobile.Nokia’s done the best it could with what it h
The Nokia Lumia 925 is a handsome device with a gorgeous display and a superb camera, plus useful exclusive software that helps make Nokia phones the only Windows Phones worth bothering with. But as much as we like how easy to use Windows Phone 8 is - ...

Slim, light design; Camera is super in low light; Bright and vivid screen; Great Nokia software additions
Key specs haven't really improved from the older 920; Windows Phone 8 app store is still poorly stocked; Wireless charging has been removed since the 920
The Nokia Lumia 925 is essentially a slimmer, lighter Lumia 920 with a marginally improved camera. It's a brilliant all-round Lumia phone that's perfect for shutterbugs, but those of you wanting specs that challenge the Galaxy S4 or HTC One will be lef...
