Presenting select Nokia Asha touch phones with the new Mail for Exchange software seems like the Finland-based company’s latest attempt to promote devices from its mid-range series in this era of cut-throat competition. The smartphones – 300, 302, 303, 308, 309, 310 and 311 variants to be precise – are aimed at the working class and should serve as an ideal source for managing all office-related documents.
The service employs Microsoft’s ActiveSync protocol which results into synchronization of data from push mail, calendar and contacts between office email servers and the given handsets. In layman’s language, downloading this app will lead to all the necessary work stuff automatically finding its way onto users’ devices.
The smartphone maker was also spotted speaking of certain services which fill the void created by the absence of Microsoft Office Suites. The first app on the list is Editori Text that should deliver the benefits of Word. Apart from scrutinizing and modifying documents, the free utility permits making changes to fonts. It identifies URLs as well as lets users see pictures and tables.
If the deficiency of Word is compensated by the aforementioned service, Editori Sheet takes care of Excel’s functionalities. It will be possible to view the page in small, medium or large size, while users will also be able to make adjustments within each cell. Moreover, every document can directly be stored in the phone’s microSD card.
In other news a Superman Edition of the manufacturer’s Lumia 925 was recently spotted in a couple of leaked images. Rumor has it that it will be made available in China, but there are no details asserting it for other markets. In the event it does begin rolling out to additional nations, its price will sum up to approximately $652, since its estimated retail value in the Far East country is CNY 3,999. Apart from exhibiting the superhero’s logo on its flip side, it is said to come pre-loaded with the Man of Steel app.
Coming back to the subject of Mail for Exchange arriving for the Nokia Asha touch smartphones, the utility along with the other two services has been made available through the company’s digital app outlet. Anyone enticed by the prospect of managing work-related content on the go, can visit the store and download them at absolutely no charge.
