    hopefully someone will update here on how it can be unlocked..
    fingers crossed

  • mayo88 on 28/10/2014 - 15:01

    Im with Aldi Mobile, I just phoned them and they said If I was to buy a Locked Telstra Phone that for me to use it I would have to Unlock the phone?

    So is this true has anyone managed to get it to work

    • abc on 28/10/2014 - 22:03

      Why would you need to unlock it? Aldi Mobile uses Telstra's network.

      It will work 100%. Sounds like CS doesnt know what its talking about as per usual.

      Isn't Windows phone have better battery life than Android?

      • happychappy1 on 28/10/2014 - 19:07

        No. Depends on the phone and what's running. I manage to get 10 hours screen on time with my Nexus 5 (mostly reading).

        This is with unnecessary services disabled and using Greenify. If you got a Samsung Note/S4/etc. and removed/froze the bloatware, it would get better battery life.

        You have less choice in Windows Phone to customize in that way. Although there is a battery saver mode.

        • eug on 28/10/2014 - 19:14

          No. Depends on the phone and what's running.

          The most valid comparison would be the HTC One M8 running android vs the HTC One M8 running WP8.1, since they're both on the same hardware.

          http://www.slashgear.com/htc-one-m8-windows-vs-android-batte…

          WP does seem to use less power.

        • happychappy1 on 28/10/2014 - 20:12
          +1

          @eug: Like I said, it depends on what's running.

          The HTC One M8 running Android would have the HTC Sense skin on top, with all its customisations.

          So it's basically running more in the background.

          The HTC One M8 for Windows is basically stock Windows Phone 8.1. So of course, it will use less power.

          You'd have to disable some of the bloat to get a fairer comparison.

        • eug on 28/10/2014 - 22:21
          +2

          @happychappy1: Seeing that the vast majority of Android phones out there are running a skin (namely Touchwiz and Sense), I think it is fair to say that Android uses more power than WP. The original statement did not say "…better battery life than plain vanilla Android".

  • t_c on 28/10/2014 - 16:01

    So is this phone better than Lumia 610, cant understand the logic behind the model numbering?

    • happychappy1 on 28/10/2014 - 19:08
      +3

      The second digit represents the generation. The first digit represents the series (I.e. 5 is lower than 6, etc.)

      But keep in mind that the 610 is much older and runs a no longer supported version of Windows Phone. So this would have a more updated OS, but the 610 may have more features (e.g. front camera).

      • kati on 28/10/2014 - 19:26

        So how come some people think Nokia Lumia 520 is better than 530? Mainly screen right?

        I recently bought a Lumia 520 for my mum and am wondering if the 530 would suit my dad. or if I should just stick with 520. At $39.50 the price is a steal for the 530 though…

        • happychappy1 on 28/10/2014 - 20:16
          +2

          The 5xx and 6xx Lumia series went downmarket.

          The 520's successor is essentially the 630/635 (also downgraded).

          The 530 is the new bottom end.

          Some of the features missing in the 530 (but present in the 520).

          • Ambient light sensor (530 has none, neither does 630/635)
          • IPS display (530 is TN)
          • Autofocus Camera (530 is fixed focus)
          • Camera shutter key (530 doesn't have one)
          • Proximity sensor for turning screen off during calls

          What's your budget?

        • tanksinatra on 28/10/2014 - 20:56

          @happychappy1:
          Shit they really did go downmarket. Didn't realise how much they cut off the 520 to make the 530.

          @TScott: Yes, the 4gb microSD card is like a bonus gift, I put it my 32gb one into it instead, plus 4gb built-in storage, plenty space to play with.

        • demiurge on 29/10/2014 - 14:39

          @pufffdragon:
          It's not really $10 credit as you cannot spend it on data, it's a startup bonus for some calls and will expire in two weeks.

        • pufffdragon on 29/10/2014 - 20:02

          @demiurge: $10 credit is still $10 credit, whether it goes on data or not.

        As mentioned before, they do use paypal so you have buyer protection, and if there are issues you could definitely get a your $5.99 back.

    Just wanted everyone to know that Woolworths Pialba (in Hervey Bay) has "heaps" of the Lumia 530 according to the helpful girl at the service desk.

    If you have never been to Hervey Bay I heartily recommend making the trip. It is a bustling seaside town with vibrant nightlife and arguably the most beautiful women in the world. When you first arrive there, the local villagers will clamour for your attention because by tradition, the first one to meet you will have the honour of hosting you in their house for the duration of your visit.

    Swimming in Hervey Bay is an almost Disney-like experience. The minute you enter the water dolphins will appear to frolick with you and keep you safe from harm whilst a myriad of colourful fish cavort before your eyes and humpback whales sing southern gospel songs.

    You don't need to worry about chaining your bike or removing the keys from the ignition of your car when you stay there, because crime is virtually non-existent. Just leave the doors unlocked and the Lumia 530 on the dash - it will be perfectly safe.
