Price last checked: 7 Apr 2014. Confirm current price before buying.
Basic specs define this one. The Asha 306 runs on just 64 MB of ROM and 32 MB of RAM, so it's built for calls, texts and light apps rather than anything demanding. A 3.0-inch TFT resistive touchscreen at 240 x 400 pixels handles the display duties, and it does support multitouch, which was a nice touch for a phone at this level back in 2012.
The rear camera is a simple 2MP unit with no front-facing camera at all, so this isn't a phone for selfies or video calls. It still covers the basics well: Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, Bluetooth 2.1 with EDR, a microUSB port and a stereo FM radio with RDS. Storage tops out at 32GB via microSD, which helps offset the tiny internal memory.
Battery life should hold up fine for a device like this since a 1110 mAh Li-Ion cell doesn't have much to power beyond calls, texts and some music playback. Nokia Asha 306 price in Malaysia starts from RM285, and it comes in Silver White, Red, Mid Blue and Dark Grey.
