The candy bar Nokia Asha 501 phone that is built to perform, runs on the seamless Asha operating system with Java support, and comes in bright bold colors that pep up your life.It comes with large display . Features :- 1. FM Radio 2. 3-inch LCD Capacitive Touchscreen 3. Dual Standby SIM (GSM + GSM) 4. Expandable Storage Capacity of 32 GB 5. 3.2 MP Primary Camera 6. Wi-Fi Enabled
You should wait till Nokia releases the Software update for 501 to enable it to run Wechat and Whtsapp.. Nokia has promised to release an update soon..
This is not on a Symbian OS, buddy. It is cross of SmarterPhone and S4. Experience is not of a Lumia but more of a N9 aka MeeGo or better say Swype UI.
price will always be an issue.. as we have other options to go for rather than spending 7k on nokia asha.. plus tell me the exact date when it is launching, it will help me make the decision..
The only problem is that in the US, you can buy the Lumia 521 for $105 + taxes (price match to $130 at MicroSoft store, use their $25 discount you get when you do the Bing It On challenge in store), which makes this not interesting at all :P
The Phone lacks 3g support.. Its only 2G phone with 3.2 cam ..if its priced arnd 5800 den Asha 311 would b betr option as it has 3G,corning gorilla glass,1ghz processor ...
Same colored phone with the same background of the video. Dude you need to work on your reviews. And the phones awesome. I am happy nokia is finally making its way back to get its thrown back once again.
Brother it has Asha OS 1. It is not symbian like nothingwired said. whatsapp, facebook, foursquare is available on this platform only viber not available yet but it will be in near future. Nothing wired's people are so ignorant that they could only delete the comments that were going against them. It's was better to make the correction rather than deleting my comment. Shame on you nothing wired.
Tragic screen and web browser unfortunately. Cool phone overall but if you just start to think what other phones are out there even in this price range...
okay i have 15K rs.. and i want an android phone, and even knowing i dont have extra money to buy this phone.. i am again and again watching nokia 501 video..Someone pls gift..Santaa..???
Aare fuddu tu to yaar bhul hi gaya hain ki phone kis liye hota hain. android android chilla rahahe. Jara asha os ko to dekh kinti budget mein aise phone de rahahe.IS budget mein o android phone or ku6 kar paye or na paye crash jorur kar karega din bhar. Pahele os ke bare mein thik se knowledge gain kar fir comment kar.

I love the battery life time , they do a realy good job so i wanna buy it , im from Romania !
Yes Aravind u can charge it through Usb.
If Nokia makes Symbian this smooth and responsive + more developer APIs, Symbian wouldn't have died by now.

This is pretty good..... just wanna know that whatup can be operative in this phone or not ??
you can swipe in from top it will show the notification centre
which is a better option , nokia asha 311 or 501 , in terms of web browsing and file downloading
It is not a Windows Mobile Device. It runs Nokia's own Asha Platform
The new Asha platform has any different features from the previous version?
Yes for both.
nice.....but are the both SIMs are micro or only 1 SIMs is micro and the other the mini SIM
is there an upgrade of software in the near future.. can be upgrade from 2g to 3g
wen launchng in India ?

I'm from Romania and I want to have this phone.What I can do to have this phone
What about wifi....??? can the usb port used for charging....???
Can we have call recording(recording both sides of the voice when i am talking) option int this phone plzz let me know ?
it's looking prity good but can use skype dear?
when launching in Egypt ?
Can set multiple alarm clock?
can we increase the font size in this phone ?
Will it support direct video download from the web or it support only 3 gp format?
whatsapp is currently working on a version for the asha 501
501 its OS is Nokia Asha software platform 1.0 , without no doubt 501 so far better . 501 is a wise choice
what about line?
june when?? any idea??
For me, it's like 8/10. Just a bit more pixel quality and if its a 5MP cam, this phone is a 9/10. Just saying. ^_^
It looks so sexy :) And I like the way they borrow from the Nokia N9 os.
does it support wechat?
The scrolling is smoot!
Is it worth buying..???
does it support watsapp?
What is symbian???And does this phone got youtube???
what about whatsapp?? will it run?
The Phone lacks 3g support.. Its only 2G phone with 3.2 cam ..if its priced arnd 5800 den Asha 311 would b betr option as it has 3G,corning gorilla glass,1ghz processor ...
i think i's same like samsung corbe...just this asha is more flaxible than corbie
Asha means Hope in hindi..
vedio resolution is poor only 320*240 pxl ...
yes
To answer the many curious people out there, no it does not support whatsapp yet, hopefully will do soon.
They said it will be a very cheap smartphobe.But in my country(Romania) it will be like double the normal fee.
price should not be more than be 5 - 5,500 Rs , As Samsung has Released Android Device ( 4.1.2 JB OS) at Price less than 5 K .
Whatsapp works on it..also Wechat..it's one of the cutest phones available
asha 501 have skype? or able to install skype on it? answer any one plz
Same colored phone with the same background of the video. Dude you need to work on your reviews. And the phones awesome. I am happy nokia is finally making its way back to get its thrown back once again.

Tragic screen and web browser unfortunately. Cool phone overall but if you just start to think what other phones are out there even in this price range...
But it has price 99USD with full nokia warranty instead of this china phones
it will......
don´t know why, but i´d like to ditch my galaxy3 for this.. =D awesome little phone!!!
can you download the app whatsapp on it ? :)
this would be a phone for my none existing kids. They dont need to run around with iphones and S3/4 or OneX+/One X. This looks decent enough.
501 does not have symbian. Its nokia asha os 1
