  • It is a Smartphone and supports almost all Smartphone apps.
  • Battery backup of the mobile is also quite good and also has a inbuilt PowerSaving mode which increases the Battery backup.
  • Its has a Standby option using which you can customize mobile desktop with your required shortcuts.
  • It also has a new Animated Main Menu different from the normal Nokia phone menu.
  • The feature of the mobile which I like the most is its 3G, I have used it for around 1 year and had a great experience with 3G.
  • It has quick predefined shortcuts for switching between Silent and General profile (by pressing #) and also have Bluetooth switching on/off shortcut (by pressing *) this is the one more feature of this mobile I liked the most.
  • If you are thinking of buying a Smartphone and you don't want a "Touch Screen" mobile then its the best mobile for you.

  • The main drawback of this mobile is that it does not hav WiFI (WLan) and it supports only single sim.
  • While using Smartphone apps like Whatsapp, Wechat, Line, etc. reduces the battery level at a huge rate.
  • Bootup time a bit more than normal phone. May be its because of the Smartphone feature but I will consider it as a Drawback.
  • If your inBox contains more than 2K messages it will start showing the Notification on top of mobile desktop.
