Nokia Lumia 625 out on 28 August for £179, in time for 4G

The Nokia Lumia 625 Windows Phone enormoblower goes on sale earlier than expected on 28 August, for less than £200.

The UK price and release date for the new phone have now been confirmed. SIM-free, the new Nokia will set you back £179, or it’s available for free on contracts starting around £21.

The 625 hits shops shelves this month — at the launch we were told September — on EE, O2, Vodafone, and at retailers Carphone Warehouse and Phones4U.

Measuring 4.7-inches across the screen, the 625 is the biggest Windows Phone from Nokia. It may be big, but the specs keep the price down: the screen isn’t particularly high-resolution. Under the display is a 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, 512MB of RAM, and a 2,000mAh battery, with 8GB of storage.

It’s a 4G LTE phone, meaning it’s just in time for the launch of new 4G services from O2 and Vodafone, also launching at the end of the month.
