Microsoft announces the dual-SIM 3G Lumia 730 and LTE Lumia 735, with selfies in mind

Launched on Thursday, and proving that smartphone owners want to share themselves with the world, are the Skype-and-selfie-toting Lumia 730 Dual SIM and Lumia 735. And they provide uncompromised smartphone experience too with an affordable price tag.

The innovative and affordable Lumia 730 Dual SIM and Lumia 735 feature a powerful Full-HD 5MP wide-angle front-facing camera with a focal length of 24mm; perfect for impromptu group snaps with friends and Skype calls with the whole family.

With the wide-angle camera, you’ll find yourself capturing more than ever; more of what’s behind, more to the side and more of what’s right in front of you.

You’ll also be able to create original selfies by way of the brand-new Lumia Selfie app that you’ll find pre-loaded on these devices.

Integrated right into the heart of the Lumia 730 and Lumia 735 and Windows 8.1, you’ll be able to switch from voice to Skype video calls with just one tap and enjoy clear audio in noisy surroundings, thanks its brace of built-in microphones and clever Lumia voice-processing technology.

A free three-month Skype Unlimited World subscription is available in selected markets, making it easier than ever to make international phone calls with friends and family on their mobile and landline phones.

Coming in the recognizable Lumia colors of bright green, bright orange, dark grey and white, the slim-and-elegant Lumia 730 Dual SIM and Lumia 735 are clearly great smartphones on the outside, but are just as smart on the inside.

For starters, there’s a 1.2 GHz Snapdragon quad-core processor that’s fast enough to deliver smooth video playback on the sunlight-beating 4.7-inch, Super Sensitive Touch HD OLED display. And the robust 2220mAh battery will allow you to use these Lumias all day.

The 6.7MP rear-facing camera takes great shots in all conditions, even in low-light, and is equipped right out of the box with the mighty talents of Nokia Camera, which is packed with a wealth of customizable shooting options and post-shot editing features to make any image you capture sing on social media and beyond.

Storage is taken care of with 8GB of onboard memory, support for 128GB via microSD and 15GB of free cloud storage on OneDrive to sync, store, access and share content, such as photos, online.

If you’re looking for a fast 4G/LTE phone, then Lumia 735 is your choice, and it comes with built-in wireless charging too. For those seeking a powerful Dual SIM phone, the Lumia 730 is the answer.
