The Nokia Asha 310 price in the US has been officially announced, even as the phone prepares to strike stores carrying a retail value of $102. The Finnish manufacturer appears to be keen on pointing out that the device will not only be holding onto dual SIM ports, but it will also be bagging in Wi-Fi connectivity.
Similar to the 308 and 309 belonging to the same series, the 310 will carry a 3-inch capacitive multi-touch display. This will be capable of reproducing pictures and videos at a resolution of 240 x 400 pixels.
The handset will be weighing 140 grams and it will measure 109.9mm x 54mm x 13mm in dimensions. In order to capture images and record clips, the rear side incorporates a 2MP camera featuring fixed focus.
Enough said about the device’s external appearance; let’s turn our attention to the components driving it from within. An internal storage of 128MB has been proffered to it. In order to compensate for the low inbuilt memory, the handset includes a microSD card slot which can facilitate an expansion of around 32GB.
A 1,110mAh battery will be fueling the phone. If we were to take the company’s claims literally, 2G users should be able to enjoy up to 17 hours of talk time or around 600 hours of standby. As far as music playback time is concerned, the handset should run for roughly 54 hours.
Apart from the earlier mentioned Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g connectivity, users can keep an eye out for Bluetooth as well as GPS. Some of the apps that the device will be running out of the box include Google Talk, Twitter, Facebook chat, MySpace and more.
When launched, the Nokia Asha 310 will be made available in regions such as Asia, the Middle East, Africa and so on. It is expected to descend into outlets across the said regions in this quarter itself. Also, the company states as footnote that those residing in Brazil will be presented with a 2GB memory card absolutely free.
