Nokia Asha 501 Review

    See other variants reviews Score: 39 / 100

Nokia Asha 501 is a low end phone released in 2013, with a little 3-inches display and a 3.2 mega-pixels back facing camera. Let's take a closer view of what this device can do.

Nokia made this phone in lots of colors: black, yellow, green, blue, red and white. The Nokia Asha 501 is 3.91 inches long, but it's only able to pack a way smaller 3" display. It appears that Nokia didn't care about the weight in this 3.2 oz cellphone.

Its display uses LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.

To help with graphic rendering, it also has a 320 MHz ARM Mali-400 MP1 graphics processing unit.

This phone is equipped with only a 3.2 megapixels back-facing camera. this cellphone's back-facing camera has a 2.8 aperture so it's serious problems taking good photographs in low light situations. It can also film videos up to 320x240 (QVGA) at 15 fps.

This cellphone features a poor 1200 mAh Li-Ion replaceable battery that can keep this phone running for many hours, although you will find yourself looking for a place to charge it if you use it heavily. Nokia afirms this device has a 1152 hs stand by time and a 17 hs talk time.

This cellphone includes wi-fi connection (but it can't share it with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot) and 3G data connection, over EDGE technologies. This cellphone works with a Micro SIM card for GSM connection.

This device also comes with Bluetooth (enables communication with other bluetooth phones, computers and accessories), and a few sensors likeProximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

Nokia sells the Nokia Asha 501 for $ 249, which is a really high price for a device this level. Nokia packs the Nokia Asha 501 with Nokia Stereo Headset WH-108, Nokia 4 GB microSD Card and Nokia Charger AC-11.
