Nokia today said the Nokia Lumia 925 across East Africa. The phone with a metal design and the latest PureView camera innovation has new great features and third party applications.
The Nokia Lumia 925 is available initially in black with an estimated retail price of:
Kenya – KES 51,500
Uganda – UGX 1,500,000
Tanzania – TZS 960,000
The Nokia Lumia 925 captures the best low light images and clearer, sharper video thanks to the most advanced lens technology and next generation imaging software. The Nokia Lumia 925 features the Nokia Smart Camera app, offering an easy way to capture ten images at once and edit the pictures anytime afterwards with options like Best Shot and Action Shot.
With an aluminium frame around the 4.5 inch display, the Nokia Lumia 925 offers unique benefits like increased robustness. A wireless charging cover, which will shortly also be available for purchase in country, comes in white, black, yellow, and red can be clipped onto the back of the phone to take advantage of Nokia’s extensive wireless charging accessories and ecosystem.
An additional feature now available for Lumia smartphones is the Nokia Glance Screen introducing the standby screen clock. Now, with a quick look and without pushing any buttons, owners can see the time or the battery level indicator on the screen when the phone is not used. A double tap on the standby screen now wakes the phone up, making it easier to unlock.
The suite of integrated location and navigation services include HERE Drive+ and HERE Maps. Additionally, HERE Maps with augmented reality view is available in the Store for download.
“We continue to build on the Nokia Lumia portfolio at every price point across East Africa,” says Bruce Howe, General Manager for Nokia East Africa. “The Nokia Lumia 925 is a beautiful high end smartphone, offering amazing imaging technology and applications. It will provide more of the premium experiences that consumers have come to love and expect from Nokia Lumia smartphones.”
