In certain aspects, the Lumia 530 matches up to its expectations, but when it comes to others (such as the display and battery life), it leaves a lot to be desired. We recommend buying this device only if you are a true blue Nokia fan looking for a budget...
Strong built quality, 128GB expandable storage, Well priced
Fixed focus camera, Poor display quality
To conclude, I'd like to say that if it's a Windows Phone device that you wish to have and that too without emptying your wallet, then Lumia 530 seems to be the right choice. However, if you are open to options then let me tell you, there are many. Androi...
