Microsoft Lumia 535 - Price / performance ratio 10 star

The Microsoft Lumia 535 since mid-December 2014 available in Germany. It comes in a convenient cardboard box complete with charger (phone plug, cable and power supply plug form a unit) supplied. For the establishment, there are help pages from Microsoft ([...]). the declare with all videos. Inserting the SIM card and the SD card (both Micro) is so incredibly easy. After setting up the Outlook / Mikrosoft account the mobile phone is ready for use. The Lumia 535 comes with the denim version of Windows 8.1 and is therefore up to date (The other Lumias get Denim until mid-December 2014).

No Smartphone without Apps! Here, the following apps are used:

Social Media:
- Whatsapp
- Facebook
- Twitter
- Skype

Multi-Media:
- TuneIn Radio (huge selection)
- Zattoo Live TV (German and international channels)

Navigation:
- HERE Drive + (Germany map completely download just over 800MB)
- HERE Maps
- HERE Transit (bus and train)

Lumia:
- All Lumia apps (Camera / Photo)

and various tool-Apps (flashlight, etc.) and Office Apps (Brother printer / scanner, etc.). Everything works perfectly.

The cameras provide good photos in daylight. The Selfie Camera (front) with wide-angle lens is for Selfies, but also with Skype calls when several people sitting in front, optimally. The flash illuminates well. The sound is reasonable.

The mobile phone is processed venünftig, fits comfortably in your hand, is light, the control buttons (volume rocker, on / off) are smooth and tight. The phone is very thin and looks stylish. The screen is sharp (text legible, images natural colors).

Through Amazon Christmas Voucher action the phone for 104 euros could be purchased here. But you get - in my opinion - a smartphone with features from the high end range:

- Two cameras with flash, Selfie camera with wide angle
- Display IPS-LCD, five inches
- Quad-core, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of memory, SD card slot
- Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi
- UK-Radio

to name only the most important ([...]).

The installed apps to here to use. From the social networks you are up to date (Skype is used here intensively and runs excellent.). The Lumia 535 has been successfully used as a navigation system with voice output (HERE cards are FREE & WORLD & indefinitely). TuneIn Radio provides up to date with the Christmas transmitters suitable music (Advent 2014 ^^). Battery life seems to be fine (it lack of experience. Battery is optimal only with repeated loading.). Many things can be personalized with Windows 8.1. Set Denim. For example, the double-Tapp, to unlock the phone is cool.

I now give 5 stars with the condition that the Lumi 535 receives all future updates (Windows 10) and early next year will be equipped with Cortana (Language Assistant). Then even 10 stars would be justified.

Do not regret the purchase. 100 euros for a top mobile I thought was a joke. But is not!
