Posted by Mobile Handsets on | November 26, 2011 | No Comments
Nokia 5250 is a cool phone with a very reasonable price. It won’t be wrong to say that it is one of the low cost Smartphone in the pricing ladder. A Symbian base platform with some basic features makes this a bottom placed Symbian Smartphone. The low price has been kept so definitely the ranges of features are going to be Spartan.
Now the question is who can afford the loss of a load of features for some bucks is what the challenge for this Smartphone is. There are also few other mobile and Smartphones that are going around for low cost but still Nokia 5250 is the least bidder by far.
Some of the key features of this mobile are Quad-band, GSM and EDGE support.
It has VGA, Stereo Bluetooth, 2MP fixed focus camera, micro USB port and micro SD slot for the convenience of users.
RDS and FM radio are the basics that this mobile posses. So you won’t be disappointed by absence of any radio or FM feature. Due to its speakers its performance in loudspeaker mode is quite good. Overall a good quality audio can be expected with this mobile device. Accelerometer and proximity sensor are also available in this handset.
Don’t worry you can access internet and web browser too which supports Flash video.
Of course due to its low price it has some disadvantages too, which can bring the market on the downward side for this Symbian supporting Smartphone.
We were not happy with the screen display and resolution it offered, non-availability of Wi-Fi, and GPS receiver struck once again on negative cord.
No preloaded Office document viewer and no support for files with XviD videos. As the memory space fills the phone tends to become slow and sluggish. There is no USB cable or memory card that comes in the package. Except a few points that a business Smartphone would possess, this does not comes par with them.
What we can say is that the prime focus of launching this Smartphone has definitely not been to compete with the wide range of Smartphone already in the rat race. Being affordable is the main positive point for this one. So being affordable is the main attribute for this mobile phone. This is a great choice for those who do not want to get confused with many features or need fancy features in their phone. All the basic features are embedded in this mobile that will solve the main purpose of any suitable mobile device. So, many people will still pitch in to buy this mobile and will be glad to invest in a cheap Smartphone. As Wi Fi, 3G is missing it losses some major share of buyers here but still bare minimum is covered. You get GSM support that fulfills the basic requirements.
