The Nokia range - some help please!

[commited]

Hey folks,

Trying to help someone pick a new phone. They're currently using an old LG Optimus 7 (e900) on Windows 7.5 which is a decent enough phone but starting to look and feel a bit dated. They also have a Surface tablet and are a fan of the WP interface which leads me to look at the Nokia range which looks pretty impressive. Unfortunately the 920 doesn't appear to be available here anymore which was the first choice. Currently there are decent deals on Nokia 520 and 625 - the Nokia 520 is about £80 here, with the Nokia 625 about £120. Is the 625 worth the premium? What does the 625 provide that the 520 doesn't (with the exception of larger screen and front facing camera)?

On another note, can the 920 be found for around £200 in the UK still? Would consider getting it shipped as it seems a significantly better phone!

Thanks!

Handtec have the 920 at about £220 if that's of any use.

4G, slightly faster chipset, compass, NFC, flash on camera.

It is significantly better. HD screen, faster processor, more RAM, more memory, much better camera with OIS.

Not sure on pricing or availability though.

520 and 625 also only have 512mb ram so some apps/games wont work, while there arent many which dont work on 512mb devices there are some but they do have sd card slots which the 920 doesnt (although it comes with 32gb internal)
