Nokia, at Microsoft's Build 2014, announced three new Lumia smartphones - Lumia 930, Lumia 635, Lumia 630 - based on Windows Phone 8.1.
The Lumia 930 is Nokia's new flagship phone, while the other two are affordable Lumia smartphones. The Nokia Lumia 630 comes in two variants and is the first Lumia with dual-SIM.
The Nokia Lumia 930 has a 5-inch 1080p display and a 20 megapixel PureView camera with Zeiss optics and dual LED flash. It is powered by a 2.2GHz Snapdragon quad-core processor.
The Nokia Lumia 930 is expected to roll out globally in June starting with Europe, Asia, Middle East and India, available from $599 before taxes and subsidies.
Both the Lumia 630 and Lumia 635 have a 4.5-inch display, 5 megapixel camera and a 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor. The Lumia 630 comes in single and dual SIM variants, while the Lumia 635 supports 4G LTE. The devices otherwise appear to be the same.
The Nokia Lumia 630 is expected to roll out in May, beginning with Asia, India/Middle East, South America and Europe, at $159 for the single-sim variant, and $169 for the dual-sim variant. The Nokia Lumia 635 is expected to be broadly available, including in the US starting in this summer, from $189.
Windows Phone 8.1 introduces more details at-a-glance through Live Tiles, one swipe to important notifications with Action Centre and, starting in the US, a personal virtual assistant called Cortana.
Nokia confirmed that Windows Phone 8.1 is scheduled to be available across the entire Lumia Windows Phone 8 portfolio as an over-the-air update (called Lumia Cyan) this summer following testing and partner approvals.
