Anonymous, 21 Jul 2013Why u compare N73 with this budget phn...Because N73 released in 2006 & we r in 2013.The former was discontinued 3 yrs ago & the hardware is low than 501.Should I not expect atleast the same features in 2013?

              Anonymous, 21 Jul 2013The SAR value is 1.41.Its too high.Beware before buying.it was a factor for me
              before Samsung ruining it with fake numbers

                    In the last 3 days, NOKIA ASHA 501 dropped 4 times from my hand and 1 time in cold water.
                    But I was surprised to see....!!!!
                    My cell was still working perfectly. First I thought that my money got wasted, but when I put the battery after one hour in the cell, surprisingly it was working. That's the NOKIA.
                    NOKIA you rockssssss...........

                      AnonD-150420, 21 Jul 2013You can add maximum 10 alarms. It's very good job by NOKIA....Thanks SAM230396, just another question, like many other phones, can we set different tone for different alarms?

                        great build quality
                        UI is so smooth
                        lacking quality apps
                        totally worth every penny

                                I have just joined GSMARENA to pass on my review on this Phone. I have used this phone just for a day. This little monster has really blown every low end android phone out of water. this phone is THAT good. Bought this phone for PKR 9200 which is roughly USD 92. i have listed few of its cons and many of its pros.

                                CONS:
                                1. Ovi Store not as good as Play Store
                                2. No Whatsapp, Viber or Wechat supported (as for now)
                                3. Average Camera result for 3.15MP

                                PROS:
                                1. Wonderfull design, one of the best looking phones on the market. It is Cute with so many vibrant colors to suite your mood and personality.
                                2. Super fluid touch, no lagging.
                                3. Its not just FASTLANE that makes this Phone Fast, it is whole UI which makes the usage quick.
                                4. Excellent new FASTLANE.
                                5. No lagging, fast Internet browsing and connectivity.
                                6. Beautiful and simple User Interface. This phone is just SIMPLE. No complications of options and sub options.
                                7. I never thought i would say that but i love touch keyboar of this phone. You can change it to Number Pad or type in normal keyboard mode.

                                All in all, SIMPLE-FAST-SEXY. Nokia has prove once again that they are not done and they are back with revenge ;)
