Microsoft Lumia 535 Dual SIM Philippines Price Php 5,990, Specs, In the Flesh Photos
Last Wednesday - December 10, 2014 - at the Amber Ultra Lounge in Taguig City, Microsoft Mobile Device Philippines officially launched the first Windows Phone handset to don the Redmond company's name and branding following its acquisition of Nokia's smartphone business.
Helping people do more of what they want -- for less, the Microsoft Lumia 535 DS offers five great integrated Microsoft experiences, a wide-angle 5 megapixel front facing camera, and a spacious 5 inch display - all for an affordable price.
"Many people, especially the younger tech-involved audiences, aspire to own the latest flagship smartphone, but often don’t have the means to get it. With access to the best services right out of the box, including the latest Windows Phone 8.1 update, Lumia Denim, Lumia 535 helps people do more of what they want, for less," shared Mr. Karel Holub, General Manager of Microsoft Mobile Devices Sales for the Philippine market.
Some of the key features and functionality of the Microsoft Lumia 535 Dual SIM allow you to do the following:
"More and more of our customers are demanding a large screen experience at an affordable price. With a spacious 5-inch screen, the latest Windows Phone 8.1 update and access to a range of Microsoft services. Lumia 535 Dual is an ideal solution to offer them," said Mr. Gary Chan, Microsoft Devices’ Head of Marketing for Pan Asia.
The Microsoft Lumia 535 Dual SIM will be available for only Php 5,990 in the Philippines starting December 15, 2014. It will also be available under Plan 499 of Sun Postpaid. The Lumia 535 Dual SIM will be out in a range of youthful colors including Green, Orange, and Cyan, and neutral ones, namely, Black and White.
TP Friends, I played with this handset for a few minutes during the event and I'd have to say that it's a really solid release; Not only in terms of build and smoothness of touch response but also when we talk about all the great Microsoft services that it comes with right out of the box. Also, since I love taking selfies, I totally appreciate the fact that it has a 5 MegaPixel front facing cam, which is quite a rarity on smartphones from major international companies in that price echelon. Overall, I'm quite impressed that Microsoft is able to offer this fairly attractive and feature-packed handset to Pinoys for just Php 5,990; At that amount, I believe this phone is already a steal.
