Microsoft South Africa has announced the availability of yet another budget Lumia device in the country, the Microsoft Lumia 532 Dual SIM.
The phone, as its name would suggest, allows two SIM cards to call the phone home, while the device itself remains orientated towards budget buyers.

Internals include a quad-core 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 CPU, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage and a 5MP Lumia camera at the rear. There’s a VGA up front above the 4.0-inch 800×480 display and underneath it all there’s a 1560mAh battery keeping the lights on.
Microsoft will also bundle the HERE Maps, Drive+ and Transit suite along with the device, while there’s also 30GB of OneDrive storage available to owners. If that isn’t enough, the microSD card slot can house cards up to 128GB in size.
“Innovation is for everyone, and we’ve consistently worked to bring meaningful innovation to even more accessible price points,” notes Shaun Durandt, GM of Microsoft Mobile South Africa.
“The Lumia 532 appeals particularly to those looking to buy a smartphone for the first time, with an operating system that is both intuitive and deeply personal.”
The device will be exclusive to Cell-C for R1699 once off, or on a Smartchat 1GB contract starting at R149 per month for 24 month.
