Nokia have just announced the Lumia 925 which is the successor to the popular Lumia 920. The newest device doesn’t see much in terms of spec changes, but rather housing as the entire device is now made from aluminum rather than polycarbonate. The specification themselves are nearly identical to that of the Lumia 920 with the 1.5GHz Snapgradgon S5 Pro processor with 1GB of RAM and 8.7 megapixel camera. The real difference is in look and feel. The new Lumia 925 is lighter and thinner than its predecessor.

Coming in at just 8.8mm thick compared to the 10.7mm that the 920 had, it’s a significant drop with weight also having a signification drop from 185g on the 920 to only 139g on the 925. The display is a 4.5-inch AMOLED with a resolution of 1,280 x 768 and is protected with gorilla glass 2. The new device will be launching in June with price of €469 in Europe.
