Microsoft unveils most affordable Windows 10 smartphone

Microsoft is getting serious with the affordable smartphone market with its latest device priced at around US$70. The new Windows 10-powered Lumia 430 is a Dual SIM device with a 4-inch WVGA display and 1.2GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 CPU. It comes with 8GB expandable storage, 1,500mAh battery, 2-megapixel rear camera, and 0.3-megapixel front camera.

It’s a budget phone so you can’t expect it to be packing mind-blowing specs. Also, it’ll be coming to regions where this kind of device is desirable; namely, Asia-Pacific regions, Africa, Belarus, Kazakhstan, the Middle East, and Russia. It isn’t coming to this part of the world.
