A while ago, I complained about Nokia Asha series being >5 K INR makes no sense (http://tovganesh.blogspot.in/2012/04/why-nokia-asha-priced-above-5k-inr.html). I am now happy to see Nokia release Asha 305 (http://nokia.indiatimes.com/nokia/touch-screen/nokia-asha-305-black-/10011/p_B10811), with just the right price point and just the right features. This is the first full touch phone in the S40 series to be released in Indian market, and I am expecting it to do well, provided it gives substantially superior performance in comparison to budget Android phones. Specs wise it seems great, and I plan to review this device when I get hold of one of these (anyone wanting to lend me a review unit is welcome!).
In the mean time I keep supporting Nokia, and hope that they can come out of the tough times (as well as the Jolla venture). Just last month I convinced two of my colleagues to buy Nokia: one Nokia Asha 200, the other Nokia Lumia 710, and I too got a very basic and lovely Nokia 1280 for my parents (actually I too might use this for some of my travels, when I can't carry my Lumia 800 around).
Update: Well a youtube user DrTechn0logy has already done a pretty indept review of the phone and you can watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aduq2DwQlH0&feature=plcp
