Nokia 105 – Affordable Entry level phone priced at Rs 1,249

Nokia has launched its most affordable handset, following its announcement at Mobile World Congress 2013. With the tag line “Good Looking, Long Lasting”, Nokia 105 certainly has features needed for an entry level handset.  The phone has a display size of 3.68 cm and a talk time of 12.5 hours.  Sporting 35 hours standby time, it has durable dust and splash-proof Alphanumeric keypad. The phone comes with five alarm settings, a built-in flashlight, FM radio and up to two games.  It is available in cyan or black.

T S Sridhar, Regional General Manager (South), Nokia India, said the handset marks the end of black and white screen era in the domestic phone market.

“The very human and fresh design of Nokia 105 makes it distinct in this price range, and utterly modern despite a traditional form factor. Our most affordable device with some of the best category features, is the ideal handset for first time buyers to enjoy the benefits and experiences of mobility,” Sridhar said.
