The Microsoft Lumia 550 launches today in select markets for $139.
The phone will initially be available in Europe, but Microsoft plans to bring its most affordable Windows 10 smartphone to additional regions in the next few weeks.
So what do you get for $139? The phone has a 4.7 inch, 1280 x 720 pixel display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 processor, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, and a microSD card slot for up to 200Gb of removable storage.
I feel $139 is slightly overpriced for the Lumia 550 because there are other similarly price Android phones with 5-6 inch screens which cost less, and have similar specs.
An iPhone would be a better choice for users who want to use more Apps. Windows Phone still does not have an official YouTube App which can be annoying for people who spend a lot of time watching YouTube videos on their smartphone.
