In terms of specs, it gets a one-hand friendly 4.7″ display that does 1280×720 pixels resolution and it runs on Qualcomm’s 1.1GHz Quad-Core Snapdragon 210 processor with 1GB of RAM. Keeping your apps are content is a modest 8GB of storage that’s expandable up to 200GB extra with microSD.

For taking pictures, it settles for a 5.0MP f/2.4 camera at the rear that shoot videos up to HD 720p. Meanwhile at the front, it gets a 2MP f/2.8 camera. The Lumia 550 is a single-SIM (nano-SIM) device and it also supports 4G LTE for faster connectivity. For charging and data transfer, it still uses a standard microUSB port.
