Starting August 23, Microsoft's dual-SIM capable Nokia Lumia 530 will be available in Singaporean stores for an affordable S$159 ($127).

The smartphone comes complete with the most recent Windows Phone 8.1 update. This update includes, among other software features, one called Action Center, which works a little like the Notifications center in iOS and Android.

The Lumia 530 is powered by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 clocked at 1.2GHz, and boasts 4GB of onboard storage, and a 5-megapixel camera at the back. Its 4-inch display comes with a modest resolution of 854x480 pixels.

Lumia 530 is now selling in Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Vietnam. It will soon launch in Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Laos, Philippines, Taiwan, and Thailand.
