Nokia has announced the newest manufacturer’s low-end smartphone, the Nokia Lumia 525, for Singapore markets. The phone is priced at $249 Singapore Dollars ($198 USD). The device replaces the successful Nokia Lumia 520.

The back covers (or ‘shells’) are also exchangeable, which the Lumia 520 doesn’t offer. There are three colours available. They’re the glossy orange, yellow, and white. The back covers (or you can read it ‘shells’) are made of the same material on the Lumia 1520 and 2520’s back cover.
After Singapore, the phone will launch in Africa, Middle East and other Asian countries.
