Continuing its Asha family, first introduced in last October, Asha 305, 306 and Asha 311 will help Nokia achieve its next billion customers – that’s what at least they are hoping.

Nokia Asha 305, 306 and 311 are almost identical phones, except that Nokia Asha 305 has dual SIM card slot while Nokia Asha 306 supports single SIM.

The Nokia Asha 311 is compact touch screen device that comes with all the features you’d expect for a fun and easy mobile experience. It boasts a bright and colorful, scratch resistant capacitive glass screen with polarization filters ensuring users get the best experience from the unique and visually entertaining user interface.

The Nokia Asha 311 features a 3.2MP camera and pre-installed Nokia Maps, in addition to the 15 level pre-bundled version of Angry Birds.

The Nokia Asha 305 is said to be a fun and entertaining Easy Swap dual SIM phone, helping users make the most of their phone while retaining control of their costs. The phone features a bright and colorful 3″ WQVGA resistive touch screen along with Bluetooth and Dual Band connectivity.

Forty EA games are available for download with every phone as well as a 2MP camera, Nokia Maps and the revolutionary Nokia Browser which helps significantly lower data costs.

The Nokia Asha 306, as mentioned above, is the sister device to the Nokia Asha 305. Along with all the features that come with its sister, such as 3″ WQVGA resistive touch screen and 40 EA games for download, the Nokia Asha 306 also provides WLAN, enabling users to stay connected while on the move.

  • S40 series sub se bakwas series hai. Is se acha bunda koi android lai le.

    • Janab Tu Pher Acha Kon sa hai Wasse Is Main Bakwass Kaya hai Ye Tu App Ne Btaya nahiii :(

  • These phones are having 1 ghz processor and the king phone N8 is with 600 mhz only? Nokia gone mad. :)

    P.S. Now don’t tell me that N8 was released in 2009. A flagship released anytime must have king specs.

    • Their flagship device is Lumia 900, no idea what you are talking about.

      “Now don’t tell me that N8 was released in 2009. A flagship released anytime must have king specs.”

      Are you high? They also released N95 as their flagship device ~8 years ago, you expect it to have the latest hardware.
