The nokia lumia 520 was famous and also the most selling windows phone till date. Then came the lumia 530 which wasn't that well going in the market. But to fill this gap and suffice the needs of the budget conscious market microsoft decided to launch two new phones. Well let me say two new future proof phones.
The Microsoft lumia 532 and the Microsoft lumia 435 are perfect
for those looking for a daily driver with pretty much all office needs and dont
want to break their pockets and are 'Windows 10 ready' for those who are
wondering why I said future proof.
LUMIA 435
The 435, first in the 4xx series, is the smaller sibling to the
532 and is bit low in specs. Though it is pretty cheap at a price of ₹5849 as
list on Microsoft's official site.
This will be good for those who want a cheap phone as well as
those who are willing to try windows phones for the first time. The 1gb ram in
these phones also ensures that you wont have to compromise on apps and games.
The specs of Lumia 434 are as follows-

LUMIA 532
Whereas, the lumia 532, the true predecessor to the Lumia 530, is
not much different in terms of specs. It is for those who want slightly better
specs then the 435 and are ready to spend one more thousand for it. Though it
isn't at all disappointing nor will it let your extra money down. Look at the
specs and yoy may know why.
