Nokia Asha 311
features a 3.2-megapixel camera on the back .Charging is done via either a
proprietary Nokia port which is on top or a microUSB port right next to
it. On top, there is also a 3.5mm headphone jack. It is the best touchscreen
phones which packs a 3-inch low-res capacitive display and a 1GHz processor,
both working in concert to bring the best out of the revamped interface of
Series 40. The Asha 311 is a touchscreen phone and one of the best in its
family.
In the box, you
get the usual pair of horrid Nokia ear buds that distort sound so much we
wouldn’t even try listening to music on them. Unlike the front buttons, the side
keys we just couldn’t get used too - they were too rigid, too hard to press
to the point of inconvenience. Also on board is a 1,110mAh battery, which Nokia
reckons is good for up to 6 hours of 3G talktime, 40 hours of music playback or
744 hours on standby.
It’s a thick
little phone features
with a good build quality, with no creaky moving parts. It comes in five
different colors showing most in the fully colored back cover and less in the
matte inward chin on the front. Fingerprints are definitely an issue with the
glossy back cover. The screen (more on it later) is encircled with a hefty
bezel that looks almost unusual for those accustomed to the narrower framing on
smartphones.
The 3-inch LCD display with a resolution
of 240x400 pixels is capacitive and
much more responsive than the one on the younger Asha sibling, the 305. It
comes with Gorilla Glass protection, which is great news.
Finally, the
phone does feature an ambient light and proximity sensor that kick in
during calls to dim the screen. Overall, the phone has a very plasticky feel
and -- thanks to its high-shine curved backplate -- a habit of tumbling out of
your hands at inopportune moments.
