The family of Nokia windows-based smartphones will soon be expanded with two new models. There are news from the U.S. about 929 Lumia emerging for Verizon, while in China - about Lumia 525, which will replace the popular budget model Lumia 520.
We'll start with a larger - Lumia 929, which will be offered only in the U.S. on the Verizon network. It will be a phone with a 2.2 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800, 2 GB of RAM and a 5-inch full HD AMOLED display. The phone will get 32 GB of memory, Qi wireless charging, FM radio, and at least three HAAC microphones, improving not only the quality of the conversations, but the recorded sound when shooting with a full stereo effect. We can record videos with a 20-megapixel PureView, assisted with a Dual LED Flash. The smartphone will be available only in white or black housing, along with an application package from Verizon.

In contrast to the model described above, Lumia 525 is able to conquer a larger area including Asia and Europe. Just like its predecessor, Lumia 525 will be an affordable model that allows less demanding or novice users to enter the world of Windows Phone. The phone - according to reports - is to be more focused on music than 520, it will also have more memory - the whole gig. There is also a dual-core Qualcomm processor, and a 5-megapixel camera without flash. However, other information on this model at the moment is gone. The launch is supposedly later this year, so we should soon know more.
Finally - a little gossip from @evleaks. Nokia is preparing yet a release of the 8-inch tablet. The equipment, known under the name of the Illusionist, is to use Windows RT. The launch - already in the new year.
