Information about the width, i.e. the horizontal side of the device when it is used in its standard orientation. On paper, the Lumia 535 should be a fraction faster than the smaller Lumia 530, as it now has 1GB of RAM accompanying its quad-core, 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 processor. This certainly seemed to be the case in our web browsing benchmarks, with the Lumia 535 finishing in 1,258ms compared to the Lumia 530’s 1,453ms. We couldn’t call the screen anything more than adequate, though, despite Microsoft’s use of IPS display tech. We found the viewing angle quite shallow, with a noticeable loss of detail when viewed slightly off-centre. IPS screens normally have excellent viewing angles, so it just goes to show that IPS isn’t an automatic guarantor of quality.

That said, the Lumia 535’s 5in 960×540 display is much brighter than almost every other Lumia phone we’ve tested this year, bar the Lumia 830. With a peak brightness of 427.69cd/m2, this will draw more power regardless of which of the phone’s three brightness profiles you choose, but at least it means the phone is easy to use when you’re outside.

Battery The batteries of mobile devices differ in capacity and technology. They provide the electrical charge needed for the functioning of the devices. Capacity It's nice to see the 530's 4in screen expanded up to 5in but it's a shame the quality didn't make the leap too. With a resolution of 960x540 pixels (220ppi) it's sub-HD and on a screen this size it's noticeably less sharp than its HD rivals. Viewing angles are a disappointment too, and you need to be looking at it straight on to appreciate it so it isnt great for sharing. More disappointing is its unresponsiveness -- we often had to double swipe or double press to get our point across, which gets a bit irritating after a while. Software & Processor RAM (Random-Access Memory) is used by the operating system and all installed applications. Data in the RAM is lost after the device is turned off or restarted.Design Information about the dimensions and weight of the device, shown in different measurement units. Body materials, available colors, certifications. Width Most cheap phones have smaller, 4-inch or so screens, so the 5-inch Lumia 535 stands out in comparison. It’s one of the reasons it doesn’t look like a cheap phone – its size puts it in similar company to much more expensive rivals.
