          What the hell with nokia? This phone has all the hardware requirements to run the s60 os. And with a secondary camera and s60 in it, this phone would have been a great one. With multy tasking and pdf reader and other handy apps this phone i reckon, would have been the highest seller in the lower and midrange markets like india and this part of the world. I want nokia to think with their head.

            AnonD-34132, 09 Mar 2012let say i wanna use this for for messaging (always), musics... moreIn terms of hardware, yes this has the advantages of a physical keyboard, but in software wise, you'll be better off with a Smartphone.
            For music, yes, it is good for music and has a very loud speaker as well.
            For internet, I won't recommend this; however, it has very poor handling of webpages. I recommend a Smartphone for that purpose.

            There are Smartphones which are cheaper
            than Asha 303, having better and more useful features (plus the advantages of installing additional productivity tools and apps)

            Try to balance your priorities with the features of the phones you're looking at. Try not stay at one phone only, take a look around other phones at this price category, read their reviews and know their features.
            Try not to be BRAND BIASED, 'cause you'll be only limiting yourself from the opportunities you can get from other brands.

            The only advantage that I know that this phone has is it's 3.2 MP Camera, Loud music, and physical keyboard.
            But in feature wise (Software) this phone really sucks.
            No multitasking, no search feature in messaging. Poor web broswer. Very limited app (JAVA only).
            One thing to note also, is since this is one of the FEW touchscreen S40 dumbphones on Nokia,
            a lot of S40 apps are incompatible with this device (due to the lack of the physical left and right soft key, and navi key);
            Well, actually, ALMOST ALL apps are incompatible with this device since there aren't many touchscreen JAVA apps
            available (and not many will emerge, since developers are moving to Smartphones where integration is not that limited).
            which is very annoying.

            Anyway, all I can say is compare, compare, compare.

            As far as I am concerned, as a user, as a customer, and as one of the owners of an Asha 303,
            this device sucks and is not fit for that PRICE tag. What a waste of 1Ghz processor.

                    Lejin, 10 Mar 2012So you mean i have to be a globe subsciber to use unlimited... moreYes you need a correct APN, and internet configuration settings for your opera mini.
                    You don't need to be a Globe or Smart subs, just like tried it says, yes it is illegal, however, I've been using it for almost 4 months now,the secret? you have to get into the system itself where the internet of every provider transmit, its hard to understand and explain, I just know how to do it, but I don't know how to teach it. It's really complicated one.
                    I suggest not to do what I did, because as they says "it's illegal" :{

                        Lejin, 10 Mar 2012So you mean i have to be a globe subsciber to use unlimited... moreyou don't need to be a Globe subscriber. you just need correct APN settings to enjoy unlimited surfing not only with opera mini but with every browser(and any app requiring data connection) compatible with your phone. the hard part is looking for that correct APN settings (which actually is illegal). The secret of the APN settings is the "magic IP" (you can google it). i was able to do that twice, but it only took less than a week when the APN settings i found in the internet were fixed by SMART telecom. i didn't bother looking for the third time. this old number of mine might get blocked.
