Lumia 625, the latest Windows Phone 8 smartphone from Nokia, is expected to become available for purchase in the UK on August 26, recently leaked info suggests.

The handset was made official last month as a mid-range device, though packing a 4.7-inch touchscreen display, the largest in Nokia’s Lumia series.

The smartphone should land on shelves priced at €220 ($290) before taxes and subsidies, and should be one of the most affordable LTE-capable handsets out there, MyNokiaBlog claims.

Lumia 625 sports a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, 512 MB of RAM, 8GB of internal memory, a MicroSD memory card slot with support for up to 64GB of additional storage and a 2000 mAh battery inside.

The mobile phone also features a 5-megapixel photo snapper on the back with 1080P video recording, and a VGA front camera.
