Wondered why the newest Nokia Lumia 925 doesn't have a Xenon flash, whereas its Verizon sibling 928 announced last week has one? Well, it might just not be needed, as the camera on the 925, despite sharing specs with the Lumia 920, seems to be quite the improved beast, and not only in terms of new software algorithms, too.
The Lumia 925 sports not two or three, but six lens elements, whereas the most reached so far on smartphones the rank of the iPhone 5 or the 808 PureView are five elements. In addition, the sensor can go as high as the staggering ISO 3200, which would play a big role in those low-light shots, if noise is kept in check, and should also lower the need of a Xenon flash.
