Nokia Lumia 530 Dual SIM

RM 225.00

Price last checked: 12 Jul 2016. Confirm current price before buying.

This is a budget entry-level handset from 2014, built around a Snapdragon 200 quad-core chip paired with just 512 MB RAM and 4 GB storage. You can expand storage with a microSD card up to 128 GB, which helps given how tight the internal space is. The 4.0-inch TFT screen is compact by today's standards, and dual SIM support means you can juggle two lines on one device.

Camera-wise, there's a single 5 MP rear shooter capped at 480p video, and no front camera at all, so selfies and video calls aren't part of the deal. The 1430 mAh battery is modest too, in line with the phone's small size and older hardware. Nokia Lumia 530 Dual SIM price in Malaysia starts from RM225.

It runs Windows Phone 8.1, an OS Microsoft has since discontinued, which is worth keeping in mind if app support matters to you. Wifi, GPS, and FM radio round out the basics.
