As the successor of Lumia 920, Nokia Lumia 925 plays a pillar in the empty window between Lumia 920 and Lumia 1020. Although the configuration upgrade is not obvious, the new appearance design still attracts a lot of attention. What experience will this latest Nokia flagship camera give us?

As for the visual angle of the screen, the problem is not serious, and there is no need to worry about this.

Seen from a more slanted angle, the color will be slightly green.

But within the acceptable range.

The viewing angle is good.

UI&Application

WP still has ceramic tile style.

Swipe right to enter the detailed application list.

The previous update has added the adjustment of screen color temperature and saturation.

The camera interface is as simple as ever.

There are some customizable settings in the native camera.

Camera filter.

Nokia's intelligent photography has a simpler interface, and it takes a series of photos by default. After taking the photos, you can take the pictures you want, such as the best smiling face, track shooting, etc.

Calendar, minimalist style.

Dialer Interface.

The game you installed cannot be found in the application menu. You must find it in the game menu. The game menu contains all the games you have installed.

Lumia 925 has its own application: HERE map. After you select the type of places you want to find nearby, they will be listed on the map. Click the places you want to go to and calculate the arrival time and score.

The HERE urban kaleidoscope also lists the types of places you want to go to. The biggest feature is that after you lift your phone, it will display the current location in the viewfinder according to the picture captured by the camera.

performance testing

The WP version of the rabbit can not detect the GPU performance, and it must be closed for normal testing. The final score is 11463.

Sunspider 1.0 tests the web page performance. The final result is 967ms, which is not good but not too bad.

Game Test

Running score is to get a general information. If you want to know whether you are strong enough, you should run the game.

The picture of Wild Racing 7 is low in effect, but it is very smooth. There is basically no jam.

FIFA 13 was good at the beginning of the game, but after the CPU got hot, there was a slight slight stuck.

Another two small games are Temple Escape (the WP version of Temple 2 has not been released yet), Angry Birds Well, "Temple Escape" is very smooth, if this game is not saved.

Angry Birds is also very smooth.

However, there are really few games in the WP store, and even fewer large-scale games. It doesn't matter if you don't have any demand for games.

AV

"Assassin's Creed 3" is 1080P, MP4 format, playing smoothly. When dragging, the picture will be stuck, and it will continue to play after about three seconds.

Killer 5, 1080P, MP4 format, also plays smoothly, and gets stuck when dragging.

My sister can't be so cute 720P, MP4 format, playing smoothly, dragging will get stuck for a second.

Battlefield 3 is 1080P and MP4 format. Because of the high bit rate, it cannot be played directly.

The rest of the small series are also the 720P RMVB, MKV format and 1080P MOV format video files. The system player can't detect them directly and can't see them directly.

Endurance

The test items are simple, including half an hour of game test and half an hour of microblogging test:

Half an hour of Wild Racing 7 consumes 20% of the electricity.

Then Xiaobian spent half an hour on microblogging, which consumed 12% of electricity.

fever

After playing Wild Racing 7 for half an hour, the left position at the top of the screen soared to 44 degrees Celsius.

The temperature on the back, upper left and close to the frame reached a frightening 51 ℃. Continuously playing games, especially large games, will seriously heat the fuselage, and because the fuselage is thinner than 920, the heat dissipation problem will be particularly prominent.

shot

Of course, these photos were taken after the initial contact with Lumia 925. We haven't had time to use this machine properly, and we will have a more detailed shooting evaluation in the future.

However, from these samples, I feel that there is little difference with Lumia 920, even worse in some places.

However, the tolerance is good. Lumia 925 also does not support spot metering, only matrix. However, when the main subject is a lamp with sufficient light source, the surrounding environment can be clearly photographed without darkness, and the light source of the subject will not be overexposed, which is well understood.

Finally, a night scene is sent, and it is exposed in 1/4 second. When the ISO is up to 1600, there will be more noise. But the color of the night scene is good.

summary

Aluminum frame, redesigned camera, etc. are all selling points of this machine. However, the protruding large and round camera is closer to the middle of the body. When you hold the phone, your fingers can easily touch the camera, so it is easy to stick fingerprints on the camera. Moreover, when the phone is placed flat on the desktop, the camera glass is almost completely attached to the desktop. If there is sand on the desktop, it is easy to scratch the camera, and you need to be careful in daily use.

The WP system is just like this, ceramic tile style. However, so far in the WP Store, I still think there are too few apps. Even if there are fewer games, I can understand them, but it is unreasonable that there are so few applications. What I'm not used to most is that the native WP system has no concept of "folder", so if an application cannot support this file or this format, it can't be found directly. To delete it, I have to plug it into the computer. I finally found something like a file manager in the WP store, but I need to pay for it. I'm not interested in it anymore.

In terms of daily games, there are basically no problems, and there are only a few games in the WP store. The Lumia 925 is a very good device in the WP mobile phone, and there is basically no problem. However, the heating problem associated with playing the game is obvious, especially the aluminum alloy frame, although it dissipates heat quickly, it dissipates heat quickly only after playing the game, and it heats up quickly during the game.

As for audio and video, many video formats cannot be supported. Daily AVI and MP4 are OK. In terms of shooting, compared with Lumia 920, the overall progress is not very great. In terms of picture purity, I think Lumia 920 is better than 925.

On the whole, this phone didn't bring much surprise to Xiao Bian. If you have Lumia 920, it seems that you don't need to consider this phone at all. However, compared with the Lumia 920, this phone is much lighter and thinner, and has the second generation Corning Gorilla screen as a protector. Its screen durability is better than the Lumia 920. As for whether to buy Lumia 925 because of these two points, that is the problem of you and your wallet.
