Nokia's new budget Windows Phone, the Lumia 525, is now available in Singapore. Nokia announced the pricing for the Nokia Lumia 525 to be $249 Singapore dollars, which translates to roughly Rs. 12,300 (excluding taxes).

The Finnish handset maker revealed the pricing on its Nokia Singapore's Facebook page. The company had unveiled the Lumia 525 globally in November this year, without availability and pricing details.

The major highlight of the Nokia Lumia 525 is that the smartphone features 1GB of RAM, which is twice the 512MB of RAM found on other budget Lumia smartphones (Nokia Lumia 520, Nokia Lumia 620 and Nokia Lumia 625). Other specifications of the Lumia 525 are identical to the Lumia 520.
