We have made it abundantly clear that the Lumia 530 was not a good upgrade for the Lumia 520, because while it features some upgrades, there were a few unforgivable downgrades. Microsoft Lumia 535 is an upgrade in every way.
It features a bigger display, adds an LED flash to the rear camera, adds a front facing camera, and comes with dual-SIM option. Microsoft Lumia 535 also offers faster processors and has doubled the RAM to 1GB. And to make the deal sweeter, you get all these at around the same price as the Lumia 520 (around 20,000 Naira).
