Nokia Lumia 610 to get Wi-Fi hotspot functionality

16 March, 2012
Although that's nice, one wonders why the more expensive Lumia 800 and 710 do not have this feature built-in.

so wht do u try to prove android or i phn user. it is that nokia is not better than samsung, sony etc. ok tell ur samy and sony make an os and fight with nokia. unless android ur set is just a waste. ur favorite company have no os to run the company. fine we accept android is the best then why u ppl here to criticise badly to nokia. forget the old device n97,n95,5800 etc. u all of are the user of these set. i think when nokia use duac core with symbian then u satisfied suerly. u all the people compare a low divice like asha to s2 how disgusting. we love nokia and never goes to galaxy device. u have projector note set but u always busy with nokia. why???u people love nokia and to see nokia top again this is the fact

Once Symbian RAM become full, it hangs, but in Android it kills the process to prevent hang.

                  "Does ur phne has better camera?" I know nothing better than N8 but better than other Symbians.

                  "Otg? Fm transmitter?" Some, but I bet not all Symbian capable of those.

                  "Battery life of 2 days?" Razr Maxx and more to come. It also easily obtained for other if you not really use your phone for hard gaming or browsing.

                  "Xenon flash? Aluminium body?" Haha you're funny dude, it has nothing to do with OS.

                  "Can ur phone teleport yov or can send u to space" Nice try, but completely irrelevant.

                  Galaxy Y is much cheaper than 500. Compare it with similiarly priced Xperia mini, and 500 doesn't have any chance. And the fact Galaxy Y is faster than 500, just try it. ;)

                                    umm guys, what are you debating about. this lumia 610 even hasn't out yet.
                                    wait until it released and see if it's worth enough for your needs.
                                    don't buy phone just because its specs or OS.

                                        back in 2010, have heard the same arguments with the screen size 3.5 to be the perfect fit. now that the size of the 'Perfect fit' has increased by an inch in 1-2 years.
                                        I guess it can be moved to 5.3 as well in another year, based on the rapid changes in mobile tech.
                                        forward thinking i'd say.
