Here's what I want in a phone:
– Ability to place calls
– Ability to text
– Whatsapp
– Google Maps
– The ability to remove all other applications from the phone, including the browser.
If I can do that, then great. I'm a college student. I have an iPhone 3GS that is slowly dying with a 14 EUR (~18 USD) p/m plan. If I can just buy this thing cheap, then I'll stick to the dataplan I already have.
What OS does this phone use? I couldn't find that information.

- daliusd 13y agoAsha phone might work for you. Google maps not included but it has Nokia maps that are quite good - still no option for offline, it downloads map when you need it, as well navigation option is very poor in Asha. I don't see why not simply buy cheap Android phone (e.g. Prestigio). Experience will be better and price the same. While I'm not sure about charging: I guess cheap Android will need to be charged daily and Asha might last from 3 to 7 days.
- maxerickson 13y agoIt's possible to push maps from a PC to at least some S40 phones: http://conversations.nokia.com/2012/03/13/using-nokia-maps-for-series-40/ http://conversations.nokia.com/2012/03/13/using-nokia-maps-f... I doubt they disabled it for this one.
- daliusd 13y agoMaybe that will be useful for others but overall maps experience on asha is not very good.
- claudius 13y agoI would be surprised if Nokia maps didn’t allow offline navigation. It does on my N9 and did on the E63 (Series 60), and I found it generally much more usable than anything Google has come up with.
- daliusd 13y agoNot on Asha. I had two for investigation of market. N9 is great phone :)
