Microsoft has just pulled another stunt at the lower end of the smartphone pyramid, which go down well with the average person in Nigeria, by launching the Lumia 430.

The Lumia 430 features a 4-inch display, 2MP back camera, 0.3 MP front, 8GB of internal memory, 1GB of RAM backed by a1.2 GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor.

All these are powered by a small 1560 mAh battery that promises to get you through over 8 hours talk-time on 3G. Of course, it has Dual SIM functionality too.

The Lumia 430 joins the Lumia 435 and 532 in Microsoft’s lowest-priced Windows Phones, like its predecessors, the Lumia 430 runs on Windows Phone 8.1 and is eligible for a Windows 10 upgrade, whenever that launches.

This is seems to be another deliberate move by Microsoft to aggressively win over the lowest end of the pyramid,as there are already enough cheap Lumia phones in the market.

The Lumia 430 will become available for purchase in April.
