The Lumia 435 and Lumia 532 are the first compact smartphones to come from the Microsoft-aquired Nokia, the company previously focusing its attention to 5+" handsets. It is only logical for Microsoft to pay proper attention to the most popular segment of...

      Really nice work GSMArena , you guys truly respect all your readers and that's exactly why this is the number one mobile phone site. But... it will be really nice from your side if you could give us a video review too of both these devices in the same way as this review. I hope I am not asking for too much.

        Microsoft Lumias do not neet backlight for capacitive keys, these are very visible and for Lumia users is easy to use.

        I consider the use of the capacitive keys of the Lumias more easier than in the Galaxy S4 of my sister, because in S4 before you touch the keys at night they are pratically invisible.

              GSMArena.com does a great job reviewing phones, but they used to do more in depth web browser reviews then in this particular review. They used to comment more on the web browser features etc... Still, a good read :)

                Thats really an impressive battery timing score especially Lumia 532's web browsing score. I am seriously considering 1 to get for me.

                      I bought the Lumia 532 for my little brother so I use it from time to time, and I gotta say that for the price:

                      It is an amazing device to play Minecraft (( for him offcourse )) watch YouTube, brows through Facebook, play music, take some photos to force our family to look at it, and to make him forget he ever wanted an iPhone, I say that is a pretty good deal.

                      To me at least.
