Nokia Asha 501 launched: Specs, features and India release date - Northern Voices Online

It is a great handset and will be loved by fans here in the country. Nokia Asha 501 has been launched. Here we take a look at its specs, features and India release date

Nokia has started hawking its much-frenzied featurephone smartphone the Asha 501 in select Asian markets. The device has already started shipping in Pakistan and Thailand already and will soon make its way to another top markets for Nokia, India. All key markets like Europe, Africa, Middle East and Latin America are to soon get this Nokia device.

The Asha 501 blends some smartphone features and functionalities to a pretty traditional featurephone. It has been designed with a goal to win over the hearts of the customers, who want a smartphone-like experience on a featurephone that is priced smaller.

Regarding specs, the Asha 501 is indeed a nice handset that runs on Nokia Asha software platform. It is up with a 3-inch QVGA touchscreen (TFT) with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels at 133-ppi. All other specs of the device are basic; however, they help the featurephone perform better.

The Asha 501 mounts a 3.2MP rear creamer, and it has options like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, FM radio, expandable memory, dual-SIM support and a lot more as major highlights. It also comes in removable colors with multiple color choices with its bigger-than-the-traditional-featurephone size.

By the way, Nokia, as a smartphone maker, has been doing great for a while. It has recently produced a set of Lumia Windows Phone 8 flagship phones – Lumia 925 and Lumia 928 – for particular markets in order to find a better place in the hearts of smartphone fans.

It is also working to launch at least two more Windows Phone 8 beasts, possibly Nokia EOS and a Nokia 1080p Windows phone in coming months. At the same time, the firm has ditched its own operating system Symbian in place for Windows Phone. The Nokia PureView 808 of the last year has thus become the last phone of the Symbian project. The handset is expected to be launched in India in the first or second week of July.
