The invasion of the affordable smartphone from Nokia continues with the introduction of Nokia Lumia 610 NFC to the market. The vendor states that this is definitely the first Windows Phone-based phone that comes packed with Near Field Communication (NFC) feature. In this following post you’ll find out the specifications overview of Nokia Lumia 610 NFC for your own personal noticing.
In terms of design, Nokia Lumia 610 NFC comes as the typical touchscreen bar phone with the dimension of 119 mm in height, 62 mm in width, 12 mm in depth and the bodyweight of about 135 grams. With this sizing, the phone has the same dimension as Lumia 710, but it is apparently bulkier than Lumia 800. The screen measures 3.7 inches with 480x800 pixels, 56K colors and 252 dots per inch of the pixel density. This is actually the exact same display specs as owned by the HTC One V except for the color depth. The display supports for multi-touch and it also has been furnished with Corning Gorilla Glass.
Towards the general performance, Nokia Lumia 610 NFC comes equipped with the below average processor namely the 800 MHz combined with the 256 MB of RAM and Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango). Having this hardware specs, the phone will be rather sluggish when performing multi-task or heavy apps and 3D games. For storing files, users have to be satisfied with the 8 GB of internal storage without the existence of microSD card slot for the memory expansion.
Since it is a low-priced phone, the camera only boasts 5 MP with no front-facing for video calls. This mediocre camera can capture image with up to 2592Ñ…1944 pixels of image resolution along with autofocus, single-LED flash and face detection features. There will be also the HD camcorder functionality using the 720p quality (@30fps) and continuous auto-focus feature.
The standard battery of Li-ion 1300 mAh (BP-3L) has been bundled with this phone that will provide the stand-by time of nearly 670 hour (2G) and 720 hours (3G). Also, it will deliver talk-time of up to 10.5 hours (2G) or about 9.5 hours (3G). For the music playback, you will get up to 35 hours (continuously). This battery pack can be considered as the decent spec since it has the enough battery capacity to power up its small display and low hardware specs.
In the aspect of internet and connectivity features, the phone runs on GPRS and EDGE Class 10, HSDPA (7.2 Mbps), HSUPA (5.76 Mbps) and Wi-Fi mobile hotspot capability. For the local connection, there are Bluetooth 2.1 and microUSB 2.0 port available along with the computer sync and OTA sync functionalities. The web browser has supported the HTML and HTML5 webpage for a better web viewing.
Based on the specs above, it can be drawn to a conclusion that Nokia Lumia 610 NFC comes with the same specs as the original model. The pros of this phone are the high pixel density and the latest platform version. However, the phone lacks microSD card slot and secondary camera. Also, the processor and RAM specs are considered to be inadequate to back up its operating system. [IS]
