Nokia is by no means the only  manufacturer to have noticed this trend, the HTC Desire Eye shows just how big this market has become.Pitching  up free in the UK from £13pm (about US$21, AU$24) on 24 month contracts  or available on PAYG from £160 (about US$259, AU$294) and £180 (about  US$291, AU$331) SIM-free, the Lumia 735 certainly doesn't break the  bank.It  also means that it fights against the likes of the Sony Xperia Z1  Compact, HTC Desire 610 and Samsung's Galaxy S4 Mini, as well as the go  to budget handset, the Moto G 4G.This is certainly one of the fiercest ends of the market, so what has Nokia packed in to give the Lumia 735 the edge? The  most obvious feature has to be the forward facing camera, measuring in  at 5MP, more than twice the size of nigh on all front facing sensors.  Coupled with a 4G connection to share those images, and it seems Nokia  knows its market.<img src="http://cdn0.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Nokia/Lumia%20735/Hands%20on/DSCI0435-580-90.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Nokia Lumia 735 faces strong competition in the budget end of the smartphone marketOn  paper the Lumia 735 certainly seems rather impressive. Nokia has fitted  a quad-core Snapdragon 400 SoC (system on chip) clocked at 1.2GHz  backed up by 1GB RAM and an Adreno 305 GPU. There is  also 8GB of storage, backed up by 15GB of Microsoft's One Drive cloud  storage and up to 128GB via a microSD card. All of this is accessed via  the 4.7-inch HD screen, with the 720 x 1280 resolution giving a density  of 312ppi.<img src="http://cdn2.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Nokia/Lumia%20735/Press%20Shots/Lumia-735-hero1-580-90.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Bright colours are a staple of the Nokia Lumia rangeAs  with every Lumia handset, the Nokia Lumia 735 comes in a range of  colours. My review handset is a rather bright green, with an equally  bright orange available, as well white or black. Unsurprisingly, this  brightly coloured handset is made out of plastic rather than metal, but  it doesn't detract from the feel of Lumia 735 at all.It  does seem to pick up dirt easily though, 20 minutes in my bag on a walk  left dark smudges that needed to be wiped off with a damp cloth. That  meant removing the back plate, which is a little difficult, although I  didn't ever feel like I was in danger of snapping it.The  curved 134.7 x 68.5 x 8.9mm frame reminds me of a much slimmer iPod  Mini and sits very comfortably in the hand. The volume rocker and  power/lock key on the right are the only buttons to hit and it is easy  enough to do so.<img src="http://cdn0.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Nokia/Lumia%20735/Hands%20on/DSCI0445-580-90.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Nokia Lumia 735 is comfortable to hold in the hand, with only a few buttons to hitIn  terms of ports the Lumia 735 has both the standard 3.5mm headphone port  and microUSB port, situated in the middle of the top and bottom  respectively. The nanoSIM and microSD slots are both located behind the back plate, accessed by removing the 2220mAh battery.<img src="http://cdn3.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Nokia/Lumia%20735/Hands%20on/DSCI0443-580-90.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />There is a headphone port at one end, and the microUSB port at the otherI'm  a big fan of the smaller screen as I have yet to buy into the phablet  phenomenon, and it certainly fits the bill for the younger teen market  that the Lumia 735 is going to be aimed at.Nokia Lumia 735 Unboxing & Review (VIDEO) Key features, performance and battery life      The 5MP front facing camera is certainly one of the main  features of the Nokia Lumia 735. It is impossible to ignore, especially  with Microsoft itself claiming that it is "the first smartphone designed  specifically for selfies and Skype video calls". I  can't comment on the specifics of that quote, but it is clear that  Microsoft is making a big deal of the front sensor and I can see why.I've  never had any problems with the forward facing camera's on many phones,  the typical 2MP forward sensor has always seemed enough for me. That  said, Nokia has done a lot of work to convince me that 2MP just isn't  enough. Unfortunately I can see there being a bit of a  problem for Microsoft and the Lumia 735 if they are aiming for the  ultimate selfie phone, namely the lack of Snapchat in the app store.  Thankfully, this is something that I can see being rectified at some  point in the future. Until then, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are all  available.<img src="http://cdn3.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Nokia/Lumia%20735/Screen%20Shots/Windows%20OS%202-580-90.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Windows Phone store is a little bare. It's even missing Snapchat, a favourite with selfie takers The  inclusion of Skype also has to be considered a key feature, thanks to  that camera and Microsoft including three months of free Skype to mobile  and landline numbers. It seems a little odd to be including a built in  app as a key feature, especially as it is available on countless other  handsets such as the Android Moto G or the iPhone 5C.Despite this, I have to say that I am a big fan of the way that Skype has been integrated into Microsoft's Windows Phone 8.1 OS.  I've been using Skype across all mobile platforms for a while and this  is by far my favourite version, and that camera is certainly a massive  bonus.My one qualm with it was that it took a few  seconds to load up when tapping the notification, something that I am  not used to. That brief loading period was also noticeable on other  apps, but mostly on Skype.The final feature that I think is key to the Lumia 735 is the Windows Phone 8.1 OS.<img src="http://cdn4.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Nokia/Lumia%20735/Screen%20Shots/Windows%20OS-580-90.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Windows Phone will feel familiar if you already use Windows 8.1 on your computerComing from daily use of an Android  phone, the Lumia 735 could have been a step into the unknown, but it  felt familiar thanks to my use of Windows 8.1 on my desktop, and the  very intuitive live tile UX. One thing that I was really  looking forward to was the background to the live tiles, as Windows  Phone 8.1 allows you to set a background image that appears as a collage  made up of the tiles, however this is hampered by the amount of apps  that come in block colours.For those that haven't ever  used the live tiling system before, it is a little like Android's widget  system, providing information at a glance without having to load up the  app itself. I've been a fan of this system for a while, and I certainly  recommend you check it out. Performance Throughout  my time with the Nokia Lumia 735, I have to say that I was always left a  little disappointed with the lack of internal grunt. This was a little  suprising given that older versions of Windows Phone were optimised to  run on lower powered dual-core CPU's, and the Lumia 735 comes with a  quad-core CPU.This lack of power was particularly  noticeable when loading up Skype, especially from the notifications bar  (affectionately known as the Action Centre on Windows). This is probably  because Windows pushes Skype to the background to save battery, and  needs to manually reload it every time.<img src="http://cdn2.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Nokia/Lumia%20735/Hands%20on/DSCI0438-580-90.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The lack of power is noticeable when opening apps like SkypeGeneral  day-to-day use with the Lumia 735 was pretty easy, although power users  will definitely notice the lack of processing power. But at this price  range the Lumia 735 matches up with its rivals, the Moto G 4G and HTC Desire 610, hertz for hertz.Unfortunately  for the Lumia 735, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is also available for a  very similar price tag and that comes with a lot more power.<img src="http://cdn4.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Nokia/Lumia%20735/Hands%20on/DSCI0437-580-90.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The higher end screen could be the reason the Lumia 735 doesn't perform as well as the 635Running  the benchmarking app WP Bench gave an average of 220.24 putting it  behind the lower powered Lumia 530 and equally powered Lumia 635. This  could be down to the higher end screen of the 735 putting a greater  demand on the CPU. Battery life When  it comes to using smartphones, one of the key things is battery life.  Coping with the aforementioned screen seems to have put a bit of a  dampener on the GPU, but thankfully the same can't be said for the  2220mAh battery. I am pleased to say that the Lumia 735  performed exceptionally well. During light usage, sending the odd Skype  and Facebook message with around 10 minutes of gaming during a lunch  break, I was able to eke out almost 2 days usage. continue reading:-<a href="http://reviewsense.blogspot.com/2014/11/nokia-lumia-735-review.html#more" target="_blank">http://reviewsense.blogspot.com/2014/11/nokia-lumia-735-review.html#more</a></blockquote>
