The Nokia Asha 210 Dual Sim were bought because the future users just do not get along with touch screens and virtual keyboard. However, it should be a fixed QWERTY keyboard anyway.
Other conditions were:
1. Dual Sim
2. WhatsApp capable
3. Nokia usual long battery runtime
4. WiFi
Result:
The expectations were largely met, the device would have to be based on the wishful thinking, deserves 5 points.
Dual Sim working class, one is used for each free internet (network Club), so for WhatsApp and the other to make phone calls, etc.
Depreciation for the following reasons:
- The battery lasts about 3 days with 2 SIM cards + WiFi. Will still testing how long it holds without WLAN. Is short a little, if one takes into consideration the advertising, but much longer than, for example, the Samsung S3 or Moto G.
- The wireless connection is extremely weak. Already in the next room, where the two androids still have almost full swing, here is (out of 5) to see only 1 bar. And in a bar can be no normal
Not even open mobile radio network WhatsApp, let alone download a soft or make updates. So if you want to do software updates, you must then answer it directly to the WLAN router, otherwise, ie for
normal use is the WiFi due to the limited range can not be used.
- The writing in WhatsApp is definitely too small, a larger font size can unfortunately neither by device setting yet with WhatsApp - make settings, ie the display is actually too small for WhatsApp.
- Now a problem only of the white 210: the white device discolored already after 2 weeks at the edges, especially on the narrow gap to cover, and despite careful handling. Also does not wipe itself, seemingly
discolors the plastic in itself (could also be a problem in the two other bright colors "yellow" and "blue" type).
Furthermore, the white device, the keyboard layout is "black letters on a white background '. Is wonderfully clearly visible, as long as you only look the phone. But if you write during the day, then light up the
black numbers on light and are no longer distinguishable from the bright background.
And finally regarding a negative example. Incomprehensibly Nokia Policy.
Between the two Asha 210 has the following differences:
That a "black" had not the button as WhatsApp imprint, but a globe. This button also always could prove free, so with Facebook or WhatsApp or what.
The second "white" had a Facebook print because the assignment of the buttons is permanently linked to Facebook and I have found no way to change the
Both have the same software version.
Do not understand the whole. It would be so easy if Nokia would basically make this button can be freely assigned.
Or does anyone know how to cancel this restriction?
Otherwise, the Asha 210 is great for nostalgia fans.
Addendum: After one year, still very satisfied. Only the battery lasts only 1 day. Will grow me a new battery.
