After making an appearance at T-Mobile last month, Nokia's Lumia 925 is landing at AT&T on September 13th. While there's a bit of a wait to actually have the device in-hand, pre-orders for the 4.5-inch aluminum-clad handset will begin tomorrow (August 28th). Ma Bell subscribers will have the option of securing one for $21 a month on AT&T's Next plan -- allowing for a new Lumia next year -- or a full one hundred bones alongside a two-year contract. Complete details lie in the PR after the break and pre-order access will be available at the source link when it goes live.

Nokia Lumia 1020’s Pro Camera app to hit 920, 925 and 928 (hands-on video)

Posted on by

A close look at Nokia's Pro Cam app on the Lumia 1020

One of Lumia 1020's main attractions is its Nokia Pro Camera app, which completes the phone's 41-megapixel camera with a bunch of handy features. In our video after the break, you can see Niina (not a typo) from Nokia demonstrating the manual focusing and lossless digital zooming. The latter actually works both ways: even if you've zoomed in before capture (and still get native 5-megapixel resolution), you can also zoom back out while browsing these photos, as the app captures both the zoomed-in 5-megapixel image as well as the full 38-megapixel image simultaneously. This way you can reframe the image and even focus on a different subject, as CEO Stephen Elop showed us in our earlier interview. But if you don't need this feature, you can simply set the app to capture just 5-megapixel images by default.

Nokia Lumia 925 lands on T-Mobile July 17th for $49.99 down

Posted on by

We knew the Nokia Lumia 925 was coming to T-Mobile, but we didn't know when, and we didn't know how much it would cost. No longer. Turns out, Lumia fans can have the handset starting July 17th for the low, low price of $49.99 down with 24 monthly payments of $20 thereafter. Of course, should a new, more photographically-capable handset become available down the road, you can always Jump to the new model -- provided you pay the additional ten bucks a month and happen to live in the right part of the world.

Nokia adds Peek hover function to Lumias running latest Amber OS update

Nokia adds Peek hover function to Lumias running latest Amber OS update

It doesn't come close to the suite of air gestures Samsung's included in the Galaxy S 4, but Nokia's pushing out an update to give Lumia owners a limited taste of that hands-free functionality. Bundled into a new version 1.6 bump for display + touch settings released today is a new Peek feature, which gives Lumia owners the ability to wake their phones and glance at notifications with a mere hand wave. Sadly, it's only compatible with Lumia devices running the latest Amber update -- currently set for a vague "summer" rollout -- which makes this hover-to-wake function a 925-only affair for the time being.
