For Windows phone OS, who gives a rat ass about spec, this is not Android. Anyway I'd say the Lumia 532 is cheap if you want a new entry level windows phone. As for me, I'd wait for the Lumia 640. After the disastrous Lumia 535 touch issue you better test out first before buying it. Windows phone OS should
always be fluid as smooth regardless of how low the spec is

Lumia 535 have touch issue which is hardware problem, so don't buy it.

Any guide on how to test out? Just swipe around? What is the issue of 535? Not sensitive?

Yea just swipe around. WP is will not have any problem with responsiveness. The problem with Lumia 535 is the touch screen is like those 10 years capacitive touch screen that you get with China phones. Try swiping around when scrolling f for pics etc. Just google for Lumia 535 touch screen issue you'll get the idea

Microsoft release a patch to fix the o issue, but some user still experiencing it. Anyway try to test 1 unit at the official Nokia store and 1 at Harvey Norman and see the difference. Those guys at Harvey Norman did not update their phones.

ok..

basically, lumia 630 specs is better than 532 in almost every area, except for the ram.. 532 had 1gb, while 630 has 512mb..

Just try first at stores. I think this model corrects the mistake of 535 (problem with touch). But RM379 is not that bad for a Lumia.
