Side by side with a Samsung Galaxy S4, the Lumia 925 had whiter whites and more saturated colours, but couldn't match the S4 for viewing angles tilting the screen away from vertical led to a slight blue cast on the 925's display. As we normally see from AMOLED screens, blacks are properly black, and colours are beautifully saturated and vibrant.

It's not Full HD, but this is still an excellent display That's 332 pixels per inch (PPI), compared to 441PPI on the S4 or 326PPI on the iPhone 5. This isn’t up there with the 1,080x1,920 Full HD screens we’ve become used to seeing on top-end handsets such as the Sony Xperia Z and Samsung Galaxy S4, but it's an adequate number of pixels for the 925's slightly smaller screen. The Lumia 925 has a 4.5in AMOLED display with a 768x1,280 resolution. We're not sure it feels as absolutely bombproof as the Lumia 920, but we're certainly fans of the metal frame it's cool to the touch and makes the 925 more comfortable to hold for long periods than a phone with a plastic chassis. Instead of a solid polycarbonate shell, the phone's chassis is split into a coloured plastic rear and metal frame. Like the Lumia 920, the 925 is a sealed unit, but the design is significantly different.

Even better, the Lumia 925 has now been upgraded to Windows Phone 8.1 and will be getting Windows 10 once it arrives later this year, giving it all the same features as the more expensive Lumia 930. While both phones have been since been replaced by the equally stunning Lumia 930, the Lumia 925 is still a decent alternative if you don't want to fork out an extra £100 SIM-free for Nokia's latest and greatest. The Lumia 920 had a gorgeous, if slightly heavy, unibody chassis, and its successor, the Lumia 925 was even lighter and slimmer, shaving 46g off the 920's 185g weight as well as 2mm in thickness, making it a much more svelte proposition. Nokia's flagship Lumia phones have always been things of beauty.
