    Are you staying within windows OS?

    Have you looked at anything so far, and said yes or no to them?

    You can get newer than a 925 and stay Lumia/windows but none will be current. Depends if you want the same OS and how much you want to spend.

    Lumia 650 - year old but cheap
    Lumia 950 - 2 year old but better spec than 925
    HP elite X3 - Highest spec - but costly. Same money will have more options on another OS

    Are any really still available though. The Irish carriers dont seem to offer any. Microsoft Ireland doesnt have them on their site. I dont think they are being manufactured anymore, so end of stock on the likes of ebay really where it is at now. There doesnt seem to be any live stream of new Windows phones really. Blackberry is becoming more common that it again.

    950 can still be found on Amazon, when I moved on from my 930 (still a decent phone by the way) I went back to Android and got a Samsung Galaxy S7, the reasons?
    Good camera, wireless charging and glance screen (something I missed on the 930) apart from a few things I would say it’s an excellent phone though I will be keeping an eye out for the new Nokia 9 later in the year.
    It all depends on budget, preferred OS and what your must have features are but pretty much anything out there now is an upgrade on your old 925.

    Thanks guys for all your advice. decided to move away from Windows and asked for a Huawei P9 lite - it would cost the same as if they were to replace the 925 again - which can only be bought online
