The Nokia Lumia 530 is the new entry-level Windows Phone king, with a potent quad-core processor, capable camera, and solid construction all for under £100. You’ll doubtless be using it loads, so here are some top tips for better battery life on your Nokia Lumia 530.
With its 4-inch LCD display and a 1.2GHz quad-core processor backed by 512MB of RAM, the Nokia Lumia 530 is very well equipped for such an affordable smartphone. It’s also got a 5-megapixel camera, 4GB of internal storage, and a microSD slot for expansion purposes.
All in all, it’s a well balanced package, and with Window Phone 8.1’s famously energy efficient ways, the Lumia 530’s 1430mAh battery is more than enough.
However, if you really want to make the Lumia 530 stretch in between charges, check out these power-saving tips.

Nokia Lumia 530: Battery Saver

As with all other Windows Phone 8.1 devices, the Nokia Lumia 530 comes with a Battery Saver function. This kicks in when you find yourself running out of power, leaving only the basic functions operating in the background.
Check out Battery Saver in the Apps list. You can even pin it to your Start screen so you can see at a glance how much battery power you have left.

Nokia Lumia 530: Background tasks

Windows Phone 8.1 enables recently used apps to keep running in the background, which is great for granting quick multitasking access. However, you can free up extra memory and battery capacity by closing down some of these unneeded background apps.
To do so, just hold the Back key (the left-hand button below the Lumia screen) and tap the ‘X’ mark in the right-hand corner of any open apps you’d like to close.

Nokia Lumia 530: Email synchronisation

The Nokia Lumia 530 is great at pulling in new email as and when you receive it, but that does tend to take up power. If you don’t need your emails pulling in quite so frequently, why not lessen the frequency and save the juice?
Simply go to Settings>Email+Accounts and select your email account. Next, you will find an option labelled Download New Content, which you can tweak to extend the amount of time between email downloads.

Nokia Lumia 530: Location Services

Your Lumia 530 keeps a track of where you are at all times, and even checks in for you. To help preserve battery life when out and about. You can keep location services switched on, but turn off check-in services to save power. Just go to the start screen, swipe left, and tap Settings>Applications>People and switch the Use My Location tab to Off.

Nokia Lumia 530: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, NFC

The Lumia 530 is one well-connected phone, but connections require power. If you don’t need Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or NFC, why not deactivate them? You’ll be surprised how much juice you can save in this way.

Nokia Lumia 530: Screen Brightness

Arguably the biggest battery drain on any phone is the display. Giving off all that light takes serious power – especially when they’re as vibrant and responsive as Nokia’s.
To reduce the brightness of the display, browse to the Nokia Lumia 530’s’s Settings, then scroll down and tap on Brightness. You can then disable the Automatically Adjust feature and lower the brightness.
