Lumia 925 also uses the same processor Lumia 920 uses, 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro Processor, 1GB RAM and the 8.7MP OIS camera. But it is lighter and thinner than the Lumia 920, it measures 8.5mm in thickness and is almost 50 grams lighter than the Lumia 920 primarily because of the Aluminum frame this uses compared to the other Lumias.
