Nokia Asha 501 review

 

Produced in six bright colors, the small, electric Nokia Asha 501 practically leaps off the shelf. Nokia is hoping to corner the entry-level smartphone market with its unlocked Asha line, which ranges from bare-bones QWERTY phones to the tiny...

The Nokia Asha 501 is compact and easy to use. It comes in fun, bright colors.

The low-resolution screen and 3-megapixel camera disappoint.

For $99, the Nokia Asha 501 is worth getting if you want a small, simple, colorful feature phone. However, U.S. denizens will have to buy it unlocked.

Nokia Asha 501 Review

 

Potential – that's the word I'm stuck with before letting go of the Nokia Asha 501. It could have been the perfect feature phone for everyone if it weren't for the low-res display and the lack of must-have apps.

Until the Android-based smartphones arrived into the country, Nokia was one of the most desired brands for mobile phones in our country.

The Nokia Asha 501 is a wonderfully refreshed phone with a design borrowed from the looks of the popular Lumia lineup. With a snappy 1 GHz processor onboard, a fresh new Nokia Asha Smartphone OS, Wi-Fi and GPRS/EDGE connectivity, 4 GB bundled storage,...

The low-resolution screen and 3-megapixel camera disappoint.

For $99, the Nokia Asha 501 is worth getting if you want a small, simple, colorful feature phone. However, U.S. denizens will have to buy it unlocked.
