Microsoft Lumia 535 Specs

7.0

Description

The Microsoft Lumia 535 doesn’t offer high-end specs, but it’s certainly a step up from the slightly older Lumia 530. Powered by a quad-core 1.2 GHz Snapdragon 200 processor, the phone features a 5-inch IPS display with 540 x 960 pixels, HSDPA, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of expandable internal memory, and a 1905 mAh battery. On the back, the Lumia 535 has a 5 MP camera with LED flash, while its front-facing shooter is the same 5 MP one that we can find on the selfie-centric Lumia 730 / 735.

Cheap, manageable for basic functions
Phone owned for more than a year

The phone was average with Windows 8.1. But the low end specs make it laggy. Also, the headphone experience is awesome. The Camera may be only 8MP, but it's Lumia. So, the app and lens support along with its wide angle of view makes it impressive for its spec. The battery life is so poor. It won't last you 4 hours if you upgrade it to Windows 10 and use Mobile network connection. Also, don't let its screen crack. A little crack on the digitiser and you have a phone with a perfectly working display, but you can't make any touch input.
