Lumia 525 vs 630.

[dwshobhit]

I have L520 but want to buy new Lumia and I am confused. Please suggest me. For future aspects which phone should i have to purchase ? Because L630 have new hardware so may be in future i will get continues update from MS. Stay updated is my necessary. So on the basis of future update which phone is better ?

i suggest you dont get get a new phone yet and wait for better models
the 525 and 630 wont be worth upgrading to ,over the 520
the 630 is actually a lower performer than the 520/525 in every way except for rendering web pages which the 630 is faster at than the 520(dunno about 525)
i personally feel the 30-series lumias(530,630,635,leaked 730) are a downgrade (except for the 930 and leaked 830) over the 20 series in a lot of ways
rather wait for a while more and see what better phones MS has in store for us

Hi, iam a 525 user, since u've been already using 520 I wont recommend u 525 unless u r a gamer r in need to avail every apps in the store., because there wont be much diff between the two, nd not frget 512 ram is more than sufficient for daily use.. 630 is a much better choice with dual sim, powerful processor nd cb display...btw wats yr budget? If u r budget consious go for 630 r wait fr 730 ...

Who says 525 is not future safe?
630 is good but not better than 525 in many areas. You can defend it with its Processor and Dual Sim ability. You know what, a Quad-Core processor is useless with 512 RAM.
One thing: Being a 525 user I do not want to misguide you, but just wanted to inform you that it gets hot a lot when you play games or excessively use internet. I am not sure about 630 though.

With 630 you won't be able to play the games that 525 supports..so 525 is indeed the best....!

plus snapdragon 400(quad - 630) and snapdragon s4 (dual core - 520/525) perform the same,there was an article on wpcentral about this

but it isnt worth upgrading just for the ram, he should get the 730 or up instead when it releases

Get a used 925 for the same price instead.

Ya i agree.when it comes to 630 & 525..i prefer 525 bt if 730 is also in the game...then 730 is the wise choice....!
