Two of Nokia’s next-gen smartphones, the Lumia 630 and the Lumia 930 just went official. Succeeding the Lumia 625 and the Lumia 925 respectively, both devices get bumps in specs sheet to match those from other manufacturers.
The Lumia 930 features a 5-inch 1920 x 1080p full HD display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM and 32GB of on-board storage, without the ability to expand it further. The device will try to satisfy Nokia’s shutterbug dreams with a 20 mega-pixel rear shooter, something we’ve seen previously on Nokia devices. On the front, the device will house a 1.2 mega-pixel snapper and will run Microsoft’s Windows Phone version 8.1.

On the other hand, the Lumia 630 is much more a budget contender with a 4.5-inch 800 x 480p screen, Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, 1GB of RAM and 8GB of on-board storage, complete with a microSD slot that takes up to 64GB microSDs. The Lumia 630 goes easy on imaging and comes with only a 5 mega-pixel rear and no front camera, something which suggests potential buyers should keep expectations low. An LTE compatible version of the device, the Lumia 635, too will go on sale very soon.
While you can expect the Lumia 630 to sell for about $150 apiece, the Lumia 930 will set you back by around $600.

@yash : Is 930 and nokia lumia icon same?
Pretty much yes, it’s for those not on Verizon.
Cool!
I got to say whilst i’m sure I will never have an iPhone, I’m definitely at some point in the future likely to try Windowsphone & the Nokia 930 looks tasty 🙂
At least a dual sim windows! But the specs seems a bit outdated compared to the actual offerings (minimum 720 hd for example) It would be interesting to know if Chinese companies are going to do dual sim window phones too, although it would be more expensive for the fees I guess.
Now that WP licensing is free for devices under 9 inches, (much?) cheaper WP devices are on the cards.
