Attractive, Affordable Asha 501 A Success Story for Nokia at least in the 5k range

I've bought the last 8 hours with my new Nokia Asha 501 and the experience has been...unexpectedly good.nnPros: Tons of interesting applicationsn Great for fans of mobile gamingn Sleek UIn Responsive touchscreenn Minimal designn Can handle multiple tasksn Innovative take on mobile staples (Alarm Clock, Notes etc.)n Cool Bluetooth sharing methodnnCons: Screen size is a tad small for my tasten The Fastlane feature is great but I managed to swipe my way to the home screenn several times during gamesn Camera (3.2 mp) is nothing to write home aboutn For those who are curious - no, Whatsapp isn't supportedn The cheap plastic build looksn Learning curve is a bit steep for mobile novicesn Earphones are red, irrespective of model color (so, if you prefer your accessoriesn to match your phone, be prepared to shell out extra cash)nnOverall, I must say that this phone is one of the best that Nokia has produced in the 5k range. Some people will find points gripe about, no doubt, because the phone has enough loopholes but it also provides you with maximum value for your buck.nnP.S. - I bought the white model. Green isn't available in India, I suppose, and the yellow and red

NOKIA is amazing ! Sometimes you don't need high end smartphones !!

Let me tell you all something. not everybody needs a high end smartphone, it depends upon their liking and their pocket :P. Nokia cares about their customers !nnow, you have to admire what nokia is doing here, they have introduced such a simple yet a trendy and well built product ( of course, nokia is meant for quality ! ). nNokia Asha 501 is a phone meant for students who need to be in touch all the time and who also can't afford the high end smart phones like the iphone or galaxy s4 etc. nyou seriously need to appreciate nokia when it comes to phones with good features and excellent quality, which is the new upcoming asha series. nit's amazing how they have used lumia's colors and designed it like a n9. nfeatures are remarkable.n1. it has a very good responsive touch screen. n2. amazing new feature called as Fast lane, where you can swipe through apps instantly n3. it comes with dual sim (Easy Swap feature), for those who need more than one !n4. it's wifi capable n5. Nokia Xpress Browser is light on data, but it still gives you the full browsing experience.n6. Answer calls, switch between applications, reply to messages and get around your phone quickly with a simple swipe.n7. a good 3.2 mp camera ! n8. different colors and interchangeable back panelsn9. nokia has provided Red colored ear phones in the box. n it's only Rs.5199 ! and it was made for the Indian market. n Just don't think ! go ahead and buy it !

Best phone in this price range

I bought this phone yesterday from local mobile store shop. There price was low than flipkart's price. I paid 5150 rupees for this product & there was an offer to extend warranty period for an year by paying extra 100 rupees. nPros....n1. The phone contains 50 preloaded apps & 40 free EA Sports games.n2. A 4gb microsd memory card is included with the phone.n3. Good battery backup.n4. Good camera quality.n5. Responsive touchn6. Great design, & the handset is not very big in size like other smart phones.n7. There is an only back button. There is no necessity to use it frequently. You can do everything by swapping. n8. Wifi & bluethooth transfer speed is very good.n9. The phone support Nokia Maps, the maps application is not given. But you can download it from OVI store & it works nicely.n10. Different colors and interchangeable back panels.n11. Nokia Express browser is quite good & it saves upto 90% of your browsing data.n12. YouTube works nicely.n13. You need not require any configuration setting from your operator. Just put your sims & switch on the phone & start browsing.nCons.......n1. Both sims are micro sims. n2. It only supports videos upto 240p. n3. Red colour headset & quality of sound coming through it good but not the best.n4. Whatsapp is not available, but it will be available in next 1 month in its upgradation.n5. No 3g network.n6. No A-GPS.n7. Processing speed is little bit slow as compared to the other phones having 1 GHZ processor. nnIn overall, Nokia is giving lots of facilities in 5k Range. So this phone will be a decent purchase
