MANILA, Philippines - Nowadays, owning a mobile phone is already a necessity rather than a luxury. While they are mainly used as a communication tool, mobile phones have also become a source of entertainment and a preferred way of connecting to the Internet.
However, even in the Philippines, a nation generally regarded as tech-savvy, not everyone gets to enjoy such privileges. This is mostly because smartphones that contain all these features are oftentimes beyond the means of most Filipinos.
Not anymore. Nokia has found an affordable way to help keep Filipinos connected as it introduces the Asha Touch family — Nokia Asha 305, Asha 306, and Asha 311, all offering unique features that promise several ways of entertainment.
“The new Nokia Asha range will bring the most popular smartphone features within the reach of many. We believe that it is not only important to make the phones affordable, but you also have to be able to really make the most of the features they have,” said Saulo Passos, Nokia’s communication director for mobile phones
“It’s part of our global commitment to connect the next billion to the Internet. These are some of the compelling reasons why we came up with the Nokia Asha Touch family, and we hope that just like other Nokia devices, these smartphones will also become fundamental in our consumers’ daily lives,” Passos added.
True enough, the Nokia Asha Touch range of smartphones is packed with qualities that will surely give users their money’s worth. Through their design as well as their exciting features, you will discover that these phones let you explore endless possibilities.

They feature a bright, colorful and intuitive touch screen that allows users to experience fun and adventure right at their fingertips. These phones are also available in colors that match your personality or your lifestyle.
But more important than a smartphone’s exterior are its features that tell you what it’s really capable of. The Nokia Asha 305, Asha 306 and Asha 311 all have a visually entertaining user interface that’s fun to use.
They also come with Nokia’s exclusive offer where you can download 40 EA games for free. This includes all-time favorite titles like Tetris, Bejeweled, Need for Speed and The Run. And if you are done with these games, there are also around 35,000 other apps waiting to be explored.
