Nokia 301

In few words, after reading many comments at gsmarena and at nokia forums, we can say nokia 301 has 2 main problems:
- short battery duration
- low voice quality
In detail:
- The battery duration seems to be shorter than in some old nokia phones (that still work), and much shorter than the value promised in the model specifications.
- The voice quality seems to be lower than in nokia 206 (a 2g phone), that is shocking if we have in mind that nokia 301 is a 3.5 hdvoice phone (according to the model specifications).
The cause could be a problem in software and/or in hardware. Anyway, the question everybody is asking is: Why has nokia launched a still-not-ready phone? Defects in battery duration and in voice quality are too important to be ignored.
And those two questions take us to an even more important question: Why nokia is not giving any explanation on this problems? The only official explanation we can see at nokia forums is something like "we are studing the problems" or "give us more information on the problems".
In my opinion, that is not a good communication policy from a company. Opacity is not the way. Companies should keep a permanent conversation with society, with citizens. It looks like they have STILL not read "the cluetrain manifesto" (written in 1999).
P.S Thanks to MisterBean64 for all his comments and information (he is giving us much more information than nokia).

Unfortunatly there are some major issues with at least part of the Nokia's 301, including mine. It lasts even less than an old 6300, while according to the specifications it would last about 2 to 4 times longer. Read this:

AnonD-144375, 07 Jun 2013Well. Some people in the world do not have access to Nokia ... moreI kind of agree, back to my old 2009 Trusty! I'm not impressed with the last few years, lets hope some better builds, and faster processors come along. Samsung are pushing them out like babies.

It's a single SIM. It seems that all the reported battery life problems deal with single SIM phones.
By the way,dual SIM phones are not available yet in my area.

Well. Some people in the world do not have access to Nokia 301 while those who can buy it experience battery life problems.
My conclusion: we all should wait until Nokia delivers flaw free phones.

pl... moreWell, if 301 is a lie, perhaps other things are lies too. Perhaps nothing is real the way we usually think. I'd better leave the talk to Morpheus: "If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain (...)"
Welcome into the Matrix, Gulab. ;-) ;-)
