With a 5-inch display and a 1.3 GHz processor, this is the latest edition to the Canvas series. The phone has a 1280×720 pixels resolution with 1GB RAM and 4GB internal storage. On the photography front, it has an 8-megapixel rear camera with auto-focus and flash, and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera with support for HD recording through primary camera. Launched in April this year, the phone is priced just above 10K.

The Lumia 525 is internally identical to the 520. It is powered by a 1GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 Plus with integrated Adreno 305 graphics. The S4 Plus is acceptable for such a low-end device but there are quad-core android models on the market in this price range now. The lone camera can take 5-megapixel stills and 720p videos, but there's no flash.
