      I really love Asha 311, and now I want to buy this already. Only if these phone is IP57 certificated, there would be no reason not to buy them.

                      For thos pointing nokia at android u shud knw rite nw that android is threatening nokia shares itself and android when it ws made ws tagged 'A FREE SOFTWARE FOR EVRYONE' not a softwar that forces peopl into its ecosystem.

                      I think that smarterphon is good, i had read a whol pdf on the 'os' when nokia bought it so am nt surpric'd nw about the multitaskin

                      what i care bout this phone is that the hardwar does not follow nokia's past mistaks i like 3inch and a startin 3.megapix some peopl ar stil stuck with 2.4inchs and 2mpx the fault nokia

                      as 4 android if u're using a phone ur friend also uses then read bout y fb hases so many usrs u find its bcos of activity nt evry1 want a phone of activity they want a phone of peac

                      am a programmer.

                              come on android fans, we want a straight phone.. a cool straight phone, and not a phone that you will be wasting your time learning rooting , falshing, custom this and that...to make it light?
                              Nokia fans buy phone to have them connected with their family and friends., not with apps,developer tools.

                                    [deleted post]Yes, tough choice... A bloated lagdroid toy made from cheap plastic, stuffed with useless, gimmick features or a high quality piece of art with well thought out features and a beautiful operating system.

                                      I can tell you that asha series are crabs!
                                      I have an asha 311, camera is bad, display quality is bad. The screen brightness cannot be adjusted, it is so bright that your eyes will be soring after a short time!

                                        The reviewed had not said cheap plastic but "made of only two parts to make it more durable and cheaper to manufacture. ". Every one knows Nokia can survive multiple trauma with a few scratches and talk about the battery life...Wow. I hope Nokia gains hold and survives their present crisis.
