Which is the best phone among Lumia 435 or Nokia x2
OR
any other Android phone.

Is this time critical? Do you need this phone in one hour?

Please reconsider clogging this Help forum with your endless polls and supposition oriented threads.

There are better places for this. The 435 forum or Phone Wars.

Thank you.

My personal opinion is that you need to scroll farther down the forum than Ask a Question.

Check this Lumia 435 review and then you should have the idea about the phone and that way you can see if the 435 suits you.

I'd stick with the Windows experience personally.

a tad harsh though?

I'd get the 435 because WP shines the most in the budget sector. The X2 doesn't have much of a future

WP shines in future in windows10 definitely but Nokia x2 support.apk files means more app than wp ecosystem.

Nokia X2 Dual SIM vs. Microsoft Lumia 435 Dual SIM - GSMArena.com

I find it very helpful to use GSMarena and compare phones side by side.

• Lumia 435 gets faster H+ capability (but will your carrier network allow data speeds that fast?)
• Same screen resolution, but X2 has a better quality display panel
• Same CPU and GPU
• 435 wins on storage - more storage on the phone and accepts a larger SD card
• X2 has a much better camera
• X2 has higher battery capacity

The thing about the Nokia X2 is that it is a small release then discontinued. After Microsoft acquired Nokia's phone production they ran down the parts and shipped these off to die. Look for no official support and a very small community of users. That probably negates the advantage of the larger and more active Android ecosystem.

I could live with the more limited storage on the Nokia X2 and would choose it over the Lumia 435 due to X2 screen quality, camera and battery all being significantly better. What you need to ask yourself is, could you live with the limited support and custom ROM porting the X2 will get in the Android community as a dead end device?

it doesn't quite have the benefits of the Play Store and Google's apps and Play Services though. (although its possible I suppose)

Also, every video I have seen about the X2 shows that the performance is quite laggy. 435 has decent performance.

I bought the L435 as a secondary phone to my 925 as well as for running the TP for W10, when that comes.

Great battery life and tough build means I don't need to pamper it with a case. Love the chunky form factor. Performance is adequate with some stutter only experienced while closing apps and exiting to home screen. Not a deal breaker though. What's really bad is that fixed focus 2mp sensor. Coming from the L925, this one is really useless with photography, even in broad daylight.

So if clicking even half decent pictures is what you want, avoid the L435 at all costs. Look at the Lumia 532 which costs INR 500/- more at 6.5k, but has a quad core 1.2 CPU and 5mp camera built into the same phone as the 435.

Better options cost more, like the Lumia 630 or the 4G variant 638. 535 is your best bet, if you are willing to spend 8-9k.
