Nokia Lumia 525 has been made official today and it retains its starting range in Windows Phone 8 platform. The lumia 525 is just a Lumia 520 with 1GB of RAM (Lumia 520 has 512MB) and nothing else absolutely. The Dimensions and weight are also exactly the same for both devices. For a full comparison of Specifications between Lumia 520 and Lumia 525 visit GSMArena. The increased RAM is something that does count heavily though, as with the light weighted Windows Phone 8 Operating System the Lumia’s with a Dual-Core Snapdragon Plus clocked @ 1GHZ and 512MB seemed to perform very well (The low RAM was pushing these devices away from some Apps on the Marketplace).

 

Nokia Lumia 520 has been one of the best selling Lumia as well as one of the best selling Windows Phone 8 so the move is properly planned by Nokia. The price of the Nokia Lumia 525 will not be very high when compared to Lumia 520 which is around $130-150 so it will be great choice for all those looking to get a Windows Phone 8 powered smartphone under a tight budget.
