Microsoft Lumia 435 Vs Asus ZenFone C Vs Samsung Galaxy J1 vs Sony Xperia E4: Budget Smartphone War
The Lumia 435, Microsoft's newest entry-level smartphone, has been launched in the country. Now that the device is freely available in the market, it would be illogical to state that the Lumia 435 is a clear winner in the crowded budget segment.
The 4-inch dual-SIM has a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM and an expandable storage. Other features of note are dual SIM support and a 1,530mAh battery. While those specs don't sound too inviting, what makes the whole package interesting is the price of only Rs. 5,999.
In India, the affordable segment typically ranges between Rs 5,000 and Rs. 15,000. At Rs. 5,999, the Lumia 435 is bound to face rather tough competition from already existing similar-priced smartphones.
