Microsoft launched its newest low-priced
Lumia, the Lumia 532, on Wednesday along with Lumia 435. If models in the 1000
range are its most high-end, then you can guess where the 532's specifications
fall. There will be the latest Windows Phone 8.1 operating system so far and
Cortana voice supporter in opted markets, but hardware is inclining adequate to
hold an attractive budget price.
The Smartphone starts you off with
a LCD screen of 4-inch WVGA and pixel resolution of 800 x 480. It isn't very
good, but it fits accurate in with the smaller display screen size. Microsoft's
simple Windows Phone interface also lends itself to this pixel density. The 532
will appear with the Glance UI, which just means that you can see the date and
time despite the fact that whether your screen is locked or unlocked.
For the camera, you're looking at a
5 MP fixed focus lens and no flash. There's a 0.3 MP VGA camera on the front
side. This is my least preferred paring, and one of the least successful ways
to obtain good quality, clean snaps.
Internal hardware adds up to a
lower-powered 1.2 GHz quad-core processor with Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 chipset
that should nevertheless be able to handle the load. The 8 GB of inbuilt memory
and 1 GB of RAM are clubbed with a micro SD card slot that is expandable up to
128 GB in external storage. Microsoft OneDrive provides you 30 GB extra as
well.
A detachable 1,560 mAh battery rounds
out the specs, but don't hope for wireless charging this time. Microsoft will build
the phone in solo SIM and dual SIM variants. It'll sell in white, black, bright
orange and green colours. The Lumia 532 has a calculated talk time of 12 hours
over 3G and a calculated standby time of 22 days.
The Microsoft Lumia 532 costs €79,
just €10 more than the very closely related Microsoft Lumia. That is equal to about $100, £60 or AU$120.

Final Conclusion
Finally
the affordable smartphone from Microsoft has been launched. The phone seems capable
seeing the specs and the built of the phone. The main thing that might be a
slight disadvantage for some is the front camera which in only 0.3 VGA. Had it
been 2 MP or so, then it would have provided a tough competition in its segment.
The price of the phone is in everyone’s budget and will be a perfect buy for
low budget customers. If you have low budget then you can also go for Asus Zenfone5 and HTC desire 516 which are best phones below Rs.10000.
