Nokia Asha 210: The first phone with a WhatsApp button!


It’s no Windows Phone, but the newly announced Nokia Asha 210’s still caught our attention. It’s a BlackBerry-style QWERTY phone that’s cheap as chips and packs an unusual USP: its very own WhatsApp button for easy instant messaging on the go.
The Nokia Asha 210 is neon coloured, low-powered S40 phone with aQWERTY keyboard for pounding out messages. Its specs won’t blow your mind: there’s a two megapixel camera on the back, and you’ll have to make do with Wi-Fi hotspots for speedy web browsing, as it’s only rocking a 2G connection otherwise.
But there’s a surprising amount you can do with S40 now, from playing games and checking email to watching YouTube videos and even finding your way with Nokia Maps. Not bad for a phone that costs just $72 (£47) before subsidies.
