Lumia phones have been the thing for Nokia and now Microsoft is carrying it forward. The new Lumia 435 and Lumia 532 are priced at a very affordable rate so that more people are able to experience the Windows Operating System without worrying about the build quality of the device or after sales service issues.

Even after being priced so low these devices are packed with some decent specs which would provide a smooth and lag free user experience.
Microsoft Lumia 435 and Microsoft Lumia 532 are almost similar in terms of specifications and design. Both the devices sport a 4.0 inch WVGA display with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels. The small display makes these devices very easy to use with one hand. The build quality of the devices is very rugged and they feel very robust in hand. Below the display there are the typical windows capacitive touch buttons (back, windows and search). On the right hand side of the devices there is a power on/off button and volume rockers. On the bottom we have the micro USB charging port and on the top of the devices we have a 3.5mm headphone jack. The back panel of the devices is of very good quality. There is a matte finish to it while the side panels are glossy. This is a new kind of design which we are seeing on the Lumia handsets.
The Lumia 435 is packed inside with a dual core Snapdragon 200 processor while the Lumia 532 comes with a quad core Snapdragon 200 processor. Apart from this the other difference between these two devices is the camera. The Lumia 435 has a 2MP main camera whereas in the Lumia 532 we get a 5MP main camera with an LED flash. Rest of the specs and features of the devices are same. Both of them are running on Windows Phone 8.1 with Lumia Denim OS and Microsoft has assured that these devices will be getting all the latest updates. Under the back panel of both the devices we find a 1560 mAh battery which would be sufficient to provide uninterrupted supply.

In terms of storage both the devices are available with 8 GB of internal memory, up to 30 GB free OneDrive space and they also support micro SD Cards up to 128 GB. So, storage wouldn’t be a problem.
