what is wrong with all these people? Look at the price before speaking up. its half as cheap as Lumia 520 at launch. As Nokia already told 630 is the successor to 520, and Lumia 530 shall be an alternative to Asha Phones. So, dont tell that this phone is successor to the 520. its just a member of 5xx series to replace Asha and attract Asha costumers towards Windows Phone. If you want a upgrade over 520, grab a 630. or want 1 gb, wait for 730 to arrive. or got money to waste 930 and 1520 is there.This phone is for poor who want a smartphone experience in cheap. and dont ever compare it to Moto phone. Moto G that I took was dead on 5th day, I gave it for repair and took
a whole month.
Nokia should come out from dream. .Even company like xiaomi has give better buid quality, nokia has been once satisfied consumers that time now it fails on on and on.......
Another failure & uncompleted device coming from MS... Definitely Ms will closed mobile factory.....
Hulk, 23 Jul 2014Nokia is giving best quality hardware at that price. For Windows mobile 512mb ram is equal to ... moreU do realise that the 512 Mb is not an issue concerning optimization as everyone knows WP is optimized but rather it is the problems regarding the restriction that many apps imposes by requiring 1Gb RAM. Also given the new features coming in for example the WP 8.1 OS itself it is becoming heavy on the RAM. So by GDR2 update it will start feeling like a low end Samsung Lagdroid.
I don't understand Nokia intention for this phone, is it an upgrade or downgrade compare to it's predecessor, Lumia 525. The only logical explanation I can think of is, Nokia is trying to cut cost, at the same time try to further differentiate their Lumia 500 series & 600 series phones. Nokia achieve this by, instead of making a greater 600 series, they make a worse 500 series???
If microsoft want to replace Nokia's features phone by this with price tag less than $80 then ok other wise.....

Anonymous, 23 Jul 2014You DO realize that it's a low-end device right? Plus Lumias are nicely optimized anyways. Nicely optimized means proximity sensor with double as front camera. Right????
This phone deserves a mid-finger salute

If you want successor of Lumia 520 then go for Lumia 630, lumia530 is not a successor for l520. Lumia530 a replacement for Asha series.
