2013-10-22
I'm Andrew Foyle 4c net and I'm here with not here in Abu Dhabi taking a look and Nakia additions to its range of budget asha smartphones we've got the 500 the 502 and finally the 503 to all three new Ash's have the updated design you can see that it still has this bright yellow plastic casing but it's now looks like it's been encased in what looks like ice or glass it's really quite an unusual design but I think it's really really nice so the Asha 500 is the baby of the bunch it has a two point eight inch screen with plenty of pixels to keep things nice and sharp around the back you'll see it has a 2 megapixel camera with running nokia asha software which looks a lot like a Symbian that you may have seen on some of the earlier asha phones you can see it's got these rounded icons in a list and if you swipe over this side you'll see what's called Fastlane which pulls together content that is coming up like calendar reminders or messages and social network updates that you have previously had now the 502 is slightly bigger with a 3-inch screen and also around the back it's camera has seen a boost to 5 megapixels and finally the 503 is the daddy of the bunch this also has a 3 inch screen but it has a gorilla glass coating over the top keeping it safe from scratches and it also has the 5 megapixel camera on the back but crucially this is the first asha to offer 3g data support now a cool new addition is whatsapp which is finally made its way onto asha now that allows you to send free messages and video calls and even pictures only using your internet connection rather than using up your costly allowance so there we have the three new asha phone you've got the 500 starting at $69 the 502 at 89 and the 503 at 99 make sure to keep it CNET for all the latest nukkie knees
