Microsoft Lumia 540 makes its debut in India, to be made available on May 18

The Microsoft Lumia 540 dual SIM smartphone has made its debut in India and it will be sold at Rs 10199 in the coming days. For its price, the device is the cheapest entry-level option in the company’s new lineup to offer an HD display, but it has a lot to worry about as well.

For under Rs 7000, there are many phones which offer features better than what you’d get on the Microsoft Lumia 540. So basically, the phone places itself as a great pick for Windows Phone fans, but it might not be appealing enough to entice customers to switch over to the Microsoft OS.

Additionally, the Lumia 640 smartphone which offers slightly better features is currently selling for as low as Rs 9999. So why would anyone go for the new Lumia handset when they can get more for less and from the same company? The device in question is a pretty good option nonetheless. It offers a 5-inch IPS LCD with 1280 x 720p pixel resolution and is powered by Windows Phone 8.1 with the Lumia Denim update.
