Just as the Lumia 830 was the last Windows Phone handset to carry the Nokia name, the new Lumia 535 is the first post-Nokia device to kick off the Microsoft era of smartphone making. A continuation of the Nokia X and Lumia 530 entry-level smartphone range slated for various Asian markets, this particular device seems geared towards a youthful user-base. 

Featuring a 5-inch qHD, (960x540; 16:9) screen, dual 5-megapixel front and rear cameras, the Lumia 535 is powered by a 1.2 GHz quad-core processor and 1GB RAM. 8GB of onboard storage is supplemented by microSD expansion of up to 128 GB storage. This will come with Windows Phone 8.1 with Lumia Denim with Cortana in tow. Lastly, there's a choice of colours including bright green, bright orange, white, dark grey, cyan, and black. While this looks like an ideal and affordable midrange smartphone for Canada, no word on availability outside of China has been announced.
