Nokia Lumia 610

Nokia Lumia 610 price in Malaysia starts from RM261, putting it firmly in entry-level territory. Under the hood is an 800 MHz Snapdragon chipset paired with just 256 MB of RAM, enough for Windows Phone 7.5 Mango's lighter interface but not much multitasking. Storage is fixed at 8 GB with no card slot, so you're working with what you get out of the box.

The 3.7-inch TFT screen runs at 480 x 800 pixels, modest by today's standards but typical for its era. On the back sits a 5 MP camera with autofocus and LED flash, capable of basic stills and VGA video; there's no front camera for selfies or video calls.

A 1300 mAh battery keeps things running, matched to a phone that weighs just over 131 grams and measures 12 mm thick. It supports Wi-Fi, GPS and HSDPA data, and comes in White, Cyan, Magenta and Black.
