FYI. this phone hasn't release in any market.

This is a feature phone. What do you expect?

anyhow, when is this gonna be launched? really, really good option as a 2nd phone

Should be this quarter

I heard and read somewhere that it is going to be release in this month, June 2013.
So far today, 20th, the model could not be found at Superbuy.my

I am thinking to get this or Nokia 301 as my secondary phone.

Link

allrite good to know

hope it comin to malaysia fast

well is this phone still on symbian??

Yes, Symbian.

Finally, the phone is listed and available for sale at Superbuy.my @RM239.
Available in Blue, Black and Yellow.
However, no further discount, no free gift and no free shipping.
Also, have to wait 3-5 working days to ship out. Hence, no ready stock on hand.

While, Nokia Centre at Bintang Mall, Miri, Sarawak will receive by tomorrow. They are not sure about the available color yet.

I am so eager to buy now but I will wait for a couple of days.

EDIT: Asha 210 Malaysia Edition comes with dedicated Facebook button, not WhatsApp button (Which I am hoping for). Avaxx Facebook confirmed this.

EDIT 3PM: Superbuy.my provide further discount to RM229 (RRP: RM239).
Probably compensate for shipping cost?

EDIT 5PM: Ready Stock is available, indicated Delivery within 48 Working Hours

Yeah, you could be right. Only two of us. Well, what to do.
Almost everyone is "into" smartphone nowadays.

I am not sure whether the dedicated button could be changed from the Menu/Setting, but I am hoping it could.

EDIT: Just find out from AVAXX FB that the dedicated button could not be changed. It is hardwired. Refer to http://goo.gl/xlgFu, for detail.

Good to know that there are still merchant supporting Nokia Feature Phone!
Keep those us. Good luck.

any idea whether wechat is compatible with this phone ?

No idea. Does symbian have wechat?

Anyone owns one by now? any review?

although its lower-end model.

Wechat is available for the S40, which is also a symbian OS I presume, not sure what are the chances to install to this phone thou. Would like to get some feedback before getting one

already in the market? Was waiting for tis phone for so long...

Yes. Price round RM239.

So any comment with the phones?

Planning to buy either 210 or 501 as my second phone. But each time go to nokia, no demo set to test.

the screen glare, the keypad is hard, the wifi sometimes dont really works, dont charge off from power bank, no wee chat, no line, not really compatible with opera mini.. nokia xpress aint really cut it.. opera mini still rules...
overall.. a budget phone.. dont expect much, call is clear, sms ok, whatsapp works well, facebook ..ok ok.. the shortcut key is jus dedicated for facebook cant altered it...

sunway pyramid got demo set. overall good, from the back looks like lumia series. but the keypad is funny texture, unlike asha 302. screen and camera is basic. asha 501 better yo

Can you tether on this phone?

can but on edge speed... not worth it..

Thanks.
I forgot... it's a 2.5G phone...

the curve also got demo.

+low price
+its a nokia

-keypad is sticky texture, and is very stiff to press.
-screen is a bit washout
-lag a bit

just want to know this phone whatsapp able to display new chat if the screen is off??

How the what apps feature anyone using this ? Plan to get it as spare Phone

Guess gonna go for asha 501

i might go for asha210 rather than 501 though

asha501 is running a new platform, hence no simplified chinese input yet (nokia claimed that its not sold in china / hk market), still awaiting the update.

i jus contacted nokia a few times to check on the availability of whatsapp on 501, they said its jus out (though they promised july)

asha210 might b a safer choice jus as a pure 2nd phone with minimal smart features. but its a solid 2nd phone to have.

the qwerty keypad is not tat bad. for a budget phone. jus the texture a bit weird (rubberish + plastic) feel.
at this price. with dual sim + wifi. its a good enuf 2nd phone i'd say

planning to buy this phone as well. this will be my phone until i found a new one that can really replace my lost lumia 920.

i have bought it yesterday, cyan color, rm239. actually was gonna go with the yellow one, but the one at the shop, its facebook & camera buttons was a bit slanted so i chose cyan instead. the os is ok, going back to classic symbian. so far the only problem i have is with the wifi performance, the antenna is pretty weak, although i sit a few meters away from the modem, the connection would sometimes lost. but i guess it's inevitable for a low end phone.

it is the screen on the low end phone that turn me off unfortunately :*(

I'm wanna buy the Nokia Asha 210 with WHATSAPP button on it. Single sim, NOT dual sim.

Is it available?

Online it says it's priced at RM 230, please message me if you're selling it.

I assume it has warranty and the usual stuff it comes with like the charger.

Thanks.

i am wondering how did asha ended up in symbian thread?

asha is not using symbian os.

for local market, only the facebook button is available. IINM, whatsapp button is exclusively to india market and around that region, i guess.

thanks for bringing this up.. before this i thought the s in s40 stands for symbian, turns out it stands for series 40. while symbian is s60v?..

anyone interested on it?　ｉ　ｗａｎｎａ　ｌｅｔ　ｇｏ　ｒｍ１２５

A great phone

is this thread die ?
