Nokia Asha 503 review: One step at a time

22 January 2014
Asha phones. They take you a long way, but yet make you always want more. In this case, more would mean something with Windows Phone inside. Looks like the right thing for Nokia to do – keep customers in the Lumia waiting room, and away from Android...

      the phone is nice looking and smooth, bt the battery life is disappointing when using 3g to play music online., again i like the picture display very interesting.

              Is this Nokia's last featurephone before Nokia X comes out?

              It looks like it.

                  I tried this phone, Gosh this phone has so much lag, very laggy.. youll need to be patient with it, especially the camera.

Been there , the Ashas offer a better experience !
                      Plus I can tell u from experience that 90 % of all Android aPps r crap as well and finding the 10 % that r good is a real haSsle . Nor shoould we forget that the 503 offers built in functions that u'd need an app for on Android ...

                        Nokia makes feature phones and sell it at the price of Smartphones...as long as u love tech and its a feature phone ,u will never be satisfied with it.do u know that u can get an Android at this price? I left Nokia early last year I've gone ANDROID.

                              aww how nice, with Nokia we are every time like in a time machine jumping back. Always back.

                                Very nice phone, cheap, compact, nice and unique design. I'm planning to buy a white or black one once it's avialable here.

                                  Anonymous, 25 Jan 2014I have always been a Nokia fan, and their latest Nokia Asha... moreapple pricing..
                                  people who would take a glance at this would even think of iphones. that said, this is still expensive for the price.
                                  and the glacing?sharp corners hurt in my palm, the 501 felt a lot better in the hand.

                                    I have always been a Nokia fan, and their latest Nokia Asha 503 offering with so much more features at an economical price gives me what I need. Very user friendly, and I highly recommend it to those who cannot afford apple pricing.

                                      I hope you put a battery test.
                                      I am considering to buy it as a second phone especially that it is small, touch screen,cheap and as Gsmarena put it has a Very Good sound .
                                      Still the battery durability is so much important.

                                        Can buy a better phone than this at this price with Android OS because Android OS has many productivity apps compared to Asha platform and offers better specs and resolution. That's it. Nokia is nothing these days.
