Of the two recently announced Nokia Asha devices, the Asha 308 captured my fancy, why... it has something to do with light, the Golden Light, one of its color variant. :) Not to take aside of course its brilliant specs and features but really, I got huge attraction on something golden on a mobilephone like that of the Nokia E72 Topaz Brown before.
Anyways, the phone will definitely bring great joy to people who cant afford expensive smartphones, the phone will only cost about $99 before tax and subsidies, thats about PhP4,500 in the local currency, but they can already experience somewhat identical features to that expensive ones with the phone being considered a full pledge smartphone itself by IDC.
The smartphones key features includes:
•Fun to use – swipe to explore the three homescreens: one for apps, one for your favourite shortcuts, and one for your most used app, such as the dialler

The phone will be available in Q4 of 2012 so better start saving money for it, as I will. Yes, I'm getting one to replace my Nokia Asha 200 as a reloader device.
