Okay, a few notes

1. Some users are reporting that they can only record 480p/720p video on their device. Apparently, that is a Lumia 625 variant. The Lumia 625H.
2. I got this from Nokia Lumia 625 Specifications - Nokia

But I heard it will not save on SD cards and will use Internal Storage..Would be hard with the 625 just have 8gb(minus the OS)

There are many creative people on the planet who'll do the needful..

This was introduced with the Amber update to comply with EU laws.

MSM8227 doesn't support encoding 1080p unlike MSM8930.
Anyway, Nokia 808 could record 1080p with only 1.3ghz ARMv6 and videocore 4

The technical specifications are ok but to a common user these are words that would fly over their heads. In short lets put it simply. It has decent browsing speed over a good net connection both in wifi and 3g network. It's office is really smart and handy. It's camera specially the front one sucks big time. U can not make direct video calls from any windows phone which is really weird. You need to install other software's such as Skype to make video calls and that means more space consumption. Then again such apps like Skype and viber and what's app do not work properly in any windows phone. My final judgement it was a mistake buying the phone three days back and am trying to get rid of it as soon as possible. Anyone interested in buying an unused set with one year warranty, a smart flip cover and 2gb external memory card and all other original accessories at a price of bdt 18000?

Hi there, need help with my lumia 625. How do I know if my battery is fully charge? what is the sign of battery charging and fully charge? Thanks it doesn't indicated on users manual.

 

[fabantunes85]

When charging, there is a charger icon blinking every 1/2 seconds over the battery status. When fully charged, that icon stops blinking. Hope I helped you. Cheers!
