Yesterday I decided to take refuge from the heatwave in the South West of England in my local Apple store and Carphonewarehouse, as you do 🙂

In terms of air conditioning the Apple store was super cool inside, apart from any tech of course.

So my venture into the Apple store was a short affair, just buying another Apple TV remote to replace the one damage by one of our labradors. So off to CPW to check out what goodies they had in store. I was keen to see the Nokia Lumia 925. Luckily they had one in a greyish finish.

First up, it looked rather nice with a sort of uniformed rectangular look and curved sides. Holding it in the hand was comfortable due to the curved sides. The screen and overall phone size felt good to , that is not too small and not too big. I personally like the windows operating system and was able to manage when I had the Lumia 620 using the available apps. Gaming apps needed a larger selection Anyway, back to the 925. I liked the grey finish and moving between apps and menus is a typical windows phone affair. The 925 was very fluid and produced a good first impression. The reason I was interested in this phone is its camera, which is excellent.

However, I wish it had more than 16gb memory. I gather Vodafone currently has the exclusive on the 32gb model. The photos I snapped in the store looked rather good. Obviously, the 925’s low light skills working well.

Overall, I was quite pleased with the 925.
