The Nokia Lumia 525 features a 4-inch IPS LCD display (800 x 480), dual-core 1GHz Snapdragon S4 processor, 5-megapixel camera, and expandable storage with microSD slot. More importantly, the Lumia 525 includes 1GB of RAM, which is twice more than its predecessor. This means more compatible games and apps.
The Nokia Lumia 525 runs Windows Phone 8 with the Lumia Black update.

Driving mode is also included to politely reject messages and calls while driving.
