In the month of July 2014 a new product obviously in affirmation of the new bound between Nokia and Microsoft which gave birth to Microsoft Device; the Nokia Lumia 530 Dual SIM also know as RM-1019 made its debut globally but was made available since August 2014.

ITRealms recalls since 2013 HSDPA deployments could support down-link speeds of up to 99.3 Mbit/s.

And with its 3G on HSDPA 900/21000 Lumia 530 supports Micro-SIM on dual stand-by. The body mass of Nokia Lumia 530 comes in the dimension of 119.7 x 62.3 x 11.7 mm, 86.8 cc that is 4.71 x 2.45 x 0.46 inches, while the weight is 129 g (4.55 oz).

Also, Nokia Lumia 530 comes with the Thin Film Transistor (TFT) display otherwise described as capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors.

Addition to Global Positioning System, although Java lovers may have to look else where.

As for the colors, Nokia Lumia 53 exhibits bright orange, green, white, and dark grey.
For music lovers, Lumia 530 has an active noise cancellation with dedicated mic adoptive in MP3/WAV/eAAC+/WMA players and MP4/H.264/WMV players, while offering 15 GB free OneDrive storage and document viewer, vide/photo editor, voice memo/dial/commands as well as predictive text input.

In addition, some users alleged that Nokia Lumia 530 may not be able to connect directly to Wi-Fi due to what is tagged installing error. Rather this could be overcome by usage of mobile of course. But above all Nokia Lumia 530 seems to be advancing smartness among middle class.
