Slightly sluggish performance

Microsoft's takeover of Nokia's handset business has had the immediate effect of speeding up the refresh rate of Lumia hardware. There more models in the portfolio than ever before and the gaps between launches have shrunk considerably. It makes sense for most of these models to be clustered around lower end of the market since flagship new hardware will be on hold till Windows 10 is launched later this year.The proliferation of models means that customers have far more choices at far more price points. Android dominates the budget market, and for good reason - it is now possible to get tremendous value out of sub-Rs. 10,000 Android smartphones in terms of speed, features, camera capabilities and construction quality. That means Microsoft has a major challenge on its hands, and we're happy to see that it's taking things seriously.

Microsoft Lumia 540 Dual SIM Summary

Microsoft’s latest Lumia phone has a definite edge when it comes to style. With its colourful, translucent rear shells and slick material quality, this is a phone you’d love to run your fingers over and show off in public. However the internals are a mixed bag and performance is generally weak with sluggish animations and delays when loading apps. The camera is quite impressive, taking wonderfully detailed stills in the day and at night, but video recording has been capped at 480p which is ridiculous. The main thing against this phone is that there are plenty of lower-priced Android phones offering better features, performance and value. Buy this phone only if you love its looks above all else.
