Microsoft continues to push the boundaries with its Lumia smartphones, but not so much in terms of user experience and technology itself, but rather the price, which continues to slide down. Which is clearly encouraging news, as the Lumia, with the working name of RM-1099, should be available for less than 60 euros. Obviously, you won't get a Fittipaldi for this, but it will satisfy all those users who still use smartphones "on a whim" or who are not too demanding.
Microsoft Lumia RM-1099 will be the cheapest smartphone from the Lumia series (thereby knocking it from the place of the cheapest Lumia model 435), equipped with 4-inch screen (10.2 centimeters diagonally) low resolution. Since it is a lower price class, an entry-level model among smartphones, excesses in hardware components are not to be expected. A dual core processor, 1 GB of system memory, 4 or 8 GB of space with the possibility of "extension" in the form of a memory card microSD and two "parking spaces" for SIM card, will be quite enough for even those who don't have much under the thumb, enjoy the fruits of modern technology.

Initially, the Lumia RM-1099 was supposed to run OS Windows Phone 8.1, which can later be upgraded with the Windows 10 version. It will cost approx 55 euros, but it should be available once in early spring 2015. It is currently in the testing phase in India, and from there it should also make its way to Europe.
