Nokia Outs the Highly Affordable 225
Nokia Outs the Highly Affordable 225
Nokia has been announcing pretty attractive phones over the past few months, but that doesn’t mean it has forgotten its important lower-end market.
It has now presented another option for customers by launching the new Nokia 225.
The Nokia 225 comes with a 2.8″ 256K colour display with 320 x 240 resolution, which is also the largest display Nokia has put on a non-touchscreen phone ever.
Nokia 225 follows company’s recent design language, and also comes in a plethora of colours along with a flashlight. Nokia 225 weighs just under 100g and is 10.4mm thick. On the software side, Nokia 225 runs on Series 30 OS.
A few noteworthy applications come pre-installed, including Twitter, Facebook, Bing and Nokia’s popular Xpress Browser.
At the back of Nokia 225 is a lone 2 mp camera with QVGA video recording at 15fps. FM Radio comes with the phone. Bluetooth 3.0 with SLAM. The phone is powered by a 1.200 mAh battery, enough for 36 days of standby, 49 hours of music playing and 21 hours worth talktime.
Nokia 225 will be available for $53 in the coming few months. A dual-sim version of Nokia 225 will follow later too. The phones will be available in Black, White, Red, Green and Yellow.
Co-incidentally, Nokia also makes a touchscreen phone with a very similar price-tag, called the Asha 230, so if you have your heart set on a cheap Nokia, that might be a compelling option as well.
