Nokia recently announced
the dual-SIM Asha 501 smartphone with a fresh single-Swipe user
interface. The monoblock touchscreen device brings a new Asha software
platform to the users and developers. The Asha 501 will be offered on
dual-SIM model option as of now for Rs 5,199. Here is our take on the
smartphone.
Nokia Asha 501 is meant for the youth and first time internet users. The device comes in candy bar form factor with monoblock design. There are no keys peeking out or crevices for dust to get collected in the keys. Nokia's budget phones are known for being strong and survive great falls. The back panel hugs to the body in such a way that even when the phone accidentally slips from your hand, it doesn't come out easily along with the battery. Nokia has used slightly stronger than the regular plastic material with the device.
The back panel has bit of glossy finish which makes it easy to slip out of hands. It measures 12.1 mm thick and the phone is deceptively lighter at 100 grams than it appears. Nokia has placed the volume keys on the right side of the phone with the Power/Sleep key is located just under it.There is just one hard button under the display. Surprisingly, it is a Back key instead of the typical Home button.Nokia offers Asha 501 in six funky colors - Bright Red, Bright Green, Yellow, White, Black and Cyan.
