Yesterday at Microsoft’s Build 2014 conference, Nokia announced three new smartphones running on latest Windows Phone 8.1 OS. Out of three, one is a top notch product (flagship) while two will be targeted for the budget price section. Nokia Lumia 930, Lumia 630 and Lumia 635 are the three new phones in the Lumia family.
Nokia had already announced similar phone in US named Nokia Lumia Icon and so Lumia 930 will not be launched over there but it will cover rest of the popular countries including India.
New Windows Phone 8.1
Microsoft’s Build 2014 Conference was arranged to announce this newer version of Windows Phone operating system and it holds lots of features which were introduced in the Windows 8.1 (PC) OS. Windows phone now have there own personal assistance i.e Cortana digital assistance for Windows Phone 8.1 will be first coming as beta which is the competitor for Google Now & Siri.
Now users can find mostly used apps already installed in every new Windows Phone running this latest version. Performance and battery life sections have also got improvements while the prime focus at photography is still there thus improving the picture quality further.
Users can now change the colors of the tiles at home screen and they can even fix their personal picture (or any other) as home screen background to further make it personal.

With tons of built in Nokia and Microsoft apps and improved design, Lumia 930 is definitely a standard phone to buy. It also comes with better industry level security features offered by Microsoft.
Nokia Lumia 630 & 635
Both Lumia 630 and 635 share almost all the specs but Lumia 630 doesn’t support LTE (4G). This is the only difference between two phones while rests of the specs are as following.
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 chipset
- Quad Core 1.2GHz processor
- 512MB of RAM
- 8GB of internal storage

Nokia also announced that Dual SIM versions of these phones will arrive in China and India which is another impressive feature. The expandable storage supports microSD card of maximum 128GB size which is another eye catching feature.
According to me, Nokia didn’t did any mistake while writing specs for Lumia 930 but launching other two models with just 512RAM doesn’t sounds impressive at all.
Pricings
Nokia Lumia 930 price is expected to be around $599 which means Rs 36k in India (approx) while Lumia 630 and 635 will be lying there in ultra affordable price section i.e. below Rs 12k. [Source]
