It is undoubtedly one of the most interesting mobile phones in the Asha family . We say this because the Nokia Asha 300 has technical features up to the task, a little more advanced than other devices in the same range . In this way, the Nokia Asha 300 could be one of the favorites for the Spanish market. In fact, Nokia itself has been in charge of communicating that these phones could reach Europe , with much more affordable prices and through the main operators in each area. In this case, the Nokia Asha 300 is positioned as a worthy candidate, since itstechnical sheet is made for those users who want to enter the world of the Internet and social networks through their mobile.

We explain ourselves. And it is that the Nokia Asha 300 incorporates 3G connectivity , so that it is capable of keeping us connected at a more or less high speed to manage our social networks, email and downloads with some skill. But this is not all. Because Nokia has opted for a good five megapixel camera, capable of taking snapshots of a certain quality, as well as recording video, even in low resolution. The terminal has a stylized design , very similar to that of the most classic Nokia terminals . Next, we offer you a detailed analysis of the technical sheet of the new Nokia Asha 300with photos, videos and opinions .

Design and display

You may have noticed that the design of the Nokia Asha 300 is practically identical to that of the latest entry-level terminals that Nokia has recently introduced. And indeed.

Without a doubt, it is a lightweight mobile phone , made especially for those who do not want to carry large devices in their pocket or suitcase . In this way, it must be said that the Finnish company has designed a practical phone, with a screen that occupies part of the surface of the phone and is combined with a basic alphanumeric keyboard.

The screen is a TFT panel resistive 2.4 inches , with a maximum resolution of 320 x 240 pixels and a depth of 256,000 colors . It includes a proximity and rotation sensor, but it has an important penalty: the screen is resistive.

Photographic and multimedia camera

Nokia has always bet on good photographic machinery for its phones.

In this case, we must say that the Nokia Asha 300 has a good five - megapixel camera , able to get quality snapshots 2592 x 1944 pixels . Furthermore, the system allows us to record video in VGA resolution and at 30 frames per second . Actually, we are talking about a low quality for videos, but sufficient for a purely occasional use. The phone does not incorporate a second camera that would have been usgreat for video calls . But that is already too much to ask.

In the multimedia section , the Nokia Asha 300 behaves well. We say it because it is perfectly capable of reproducing audio, image and video content, without causing the slightest problem. That is if you use files in the following compatible formats: MP3, WAV, WMA, AAC, MP4, H.264M G.263 and WMV .

In addition, the device incorporates a recorder for voice and radio notes .

Memory and operating system

The Nokia Asha 300 has an internal memory of 140 MB, insufficient for those who intend to make intensive use of the phone .

We remind you that the device accepts cards up to 32 GB , enough space to store large amounts of multimedia files, photo albums and large record collections . Additionally, you should know that the phone has 128 MB of RAM and 256 MB of ROM .

Windows Phone 7.5 , Nokia continues to retain the properties of its simplest mobile phones, traditionally running on Symbian . On this occasion, Nokia has not lost the habit either. The Nokia Asha 300 works through the Symbian operating system in its S40 edition , so users more accustomed to Nokia will already be familiar with the interface . This means that they will not have to learn new formulas to access the main functions, something that they have already learned from other experiences with Nokia mobiles .

One of the most interesting developments, in this sense, is the compatibility of this system with some fashionable applications. In addition to chatting with your friends through WhatsApp , you will also have the famous Angry Birds game installed as standard. You can enjoy the most famous birds of the moment through a simple Nokia phone . And this is also a novelty.

If you are one of those who usually listen to music through your mobile phone, you can use your phone for up to 28 hours .
