Nokia Asha 311 Touch Screen Smartphone Announced

We know that Nokia Asha 305 and Asha 306 are about to be released in the third quarter of this year, the Finnish company also confirmed that Nokia Asha 311 will also be making its debut almost the same time as the first two. While these trio belong to the same series, Asha 311 seems to have taken the lead, or at least it has an edge over the first two as far as specs are concerned. We have already made our conclusion a separate report that both 305 and 306 will be marketed to keep Nokias brand in the loop, on the other hand, Asha 311 will be competing with other devices on the lower-end level with its fairly good specs.

Hardware. Nokia already confirmed reports that Asha 311 will be sporting a single-core 1GHz processor, this is better than several budget-friendly Android smart phones which come in with just 800 MHz CPU. This time, the Finnish company seems willing to give everything needed to make this device shine. In all fairness, for a non-Android mobile phone, having a 1GHz processor could be one of the best things that you could ever ask for.
Additionally, Nokia gave this device 128 MB of random access memory (RAM) making its every process or operation smoother than what you’d expect from a mobile phone. However, as much as we want to get storage enough to save our important files into, we cannot get it from this device as it only offers 140 MB. The good news is that there is a microSD slot that supports a card of up to 32 GB, although you really have to spent some cash on it.
Nokia Asha 311 will also feature 3.0 inches screen size to give you a resolution of 240 x 400 pixels or around 155 ppi density. Aside from that, the device will feature the dated liquid crystal display LCD. This time around, the company makes us of capacitive touch screen support multi-touch. Moreover, its camera comes with 3.2 megapixels with an aperture size of F2.8. Among the features are White balance, Exposure control, Effects, Digital Zoom and Self-timer. Of course, there will be Bluetooth (version 2.1), Wi-Fi supporting 802.11 b, g, n and it can work on any GSM/UMTS network around the world.
Its small dimension makes it even more pocketable. To be exact Nokia Asha 311′s dimensions are 4.17 x 2.05 x 0.51 inches. Simply like the previous mobile phones from Nokia, Asha 311 can be put in any of your pocket without you worrying of it to fall because it will surely fit in your wallet. One of the selling points of this mobile phone is its processor which is fast enough to run Series 40 UI system. As of now, there is no information as to how much the price of this device would be or the specific date when it will be released in the market for the public. If you are going to compare it with other Android devices, you will just get disappointed because it will stand no chance. But when it comes to usability, flexibility and performance, this device can be trusted.
