Nokia Lumia 735 Windows Phone is available from next month
Microsoft’s new mid-range model features the Cortana personal assistant and a 5MP front-facing camera
Microsoft has announced that its next Windows Phone, the Nokia Lumia 735, will be available in the UK from 2nd October.
The Lumia 735 is a mid-range model with a 4.7in 1280 x 720 OLED screen, Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of expandable on-board storage and 30GB of OneDrive cloud storage.
It also comes with Windows Phone 8.1, which means you get access to the beta version of Microsoft’s Siri-baiting Cortana personal assistant, as well as a 5MP wide-angle front-facing camera to satisfy the needs of selfie-addicted tweens. The main camera has a 6.7MP sensor, Zeiss optics and an f/1.9 aperture.
There’s a 2220mAh battery and, should you fit the optional charging shell, the ability to use a wireless charging plate.
The Lumia 735 will be available from “all major retailers” from around £20 a month on contract (no SIM free price has been given at the time of writing), in several colours including bright orange, bright green, white and dark grey.
