Nokia unveiled three new Windows Phone 8.1 smartphones at Microsoft's Build 2014 conference on Wednesday - the Lumia 630, Lumia 635 and Lumia 930. The company also announced the Windows Phone 8.1 update will be available for the entire Lumia Windows Phone 8 portfolio as an over-the-air (OTA) update this summer - the Nokia-specific update will be called Lumia Cyan.

Stephen Elop, executive vice president of Nokia's Devices & Services division, made the announcements at the Build 2014 developer conference, after Microsoft's Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 8.1 Update announcements.

Starting with the Nokia Lumia 930 - a device that the company calls a 'flagship smartphone which delivers the best of Microsoft and Lumia for the ultimate video and imaging experience.' Priced at $599 (roughly Rs. 35,800) before taxes and subsidies, the Lumia 930 will be available from June beginning in Europe, Asia, India, Middle East and Latin America, and then roll-out globally over the summer. The device won't be available in the US, as it is a variant of the Lumia Icon.


The Nokia Lumia 930 features a 5-inch (1080x1920 pixel) display with a pixel density of 441ppi. The display boasts of a Gorilla Glass 3 screen, the 'Super Sensitive Touch' feature, and 'a near 180-degree viewing angle'. The Lumia 930 is powered by a 2.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 SoC coupled with 2GB of RAM, and 32GB of built-in storage (7GB free OneDrive cloud storage).

The Lumia 930 (seen below) also sports a 20-megapixel PureView camera, which has optical image stabilization (OIS) and Carl Zeiss optics. A front-facing 1.2-megapixel wide-angle camera is onboard as well, apart from four directional microphones and integrated Dolby Surround Sound. A LTE quad-band chip and Bluetooth 4.0 LE support is featured.

Featuring an aluminium frame with metallic accents, and a curved polycarbonate back with Bright Orange, Bright Green, Black and White colours, the Lumia 930 runs on a 2420mAh battery, and boasts of built-in wireless charging.

The Nokia Lumia 930 comes with OneDrive, MS Office, Nokia Camera, MixRadio and HERE Maps, as well as specific imaging apps, such as Nokia Camera, Nokia Storyteller, Nokia Creative Studio and Nokia Refocus, pre-installed.

Will it make sense to wait for these phones to be released before purchasing Lumia 1320? (Will a price drop for the older phones come when these are released?)

Thanks in advance

Lumia 630 is a bit of a disappointment with that 512 MB RAM. The 930 on the other hand is marvellous!

Lumia 630 priced at Euro 150 in Europe, converting that into rupee means ₹ 12500! Darn! No way it will be launched here at that price!

whatever it is, people for long have been looking away from these awesome lumia's just because of the eco-system. windows 8.1 is a very good step ahead with awesome build quality and at much lesser price then galaxies.

I wonder what was so difficult for nokia to add flash in 630 & 635..... Same was done with 525 also....

And they call 630 a successor to 620... :|... Lack of flash stops me from buying. Darn :cry:

Nokia is really targeting low cost areas. Impressive specs though.
