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

Poor battery life
Processor is a bit dated
