5 Reasons to Buy the Nokia Astound Symbian Smartphone
Why the Nokia Astound Smartphone from T-Mobile is a Great Deal
The Nokia Astound is a stylish and affordable budget phone available on the T-Mobile network, but although the Nokia Astound is a low-priced smartphone it is packed with lots of great features that will surely leave you "astounded".
Price
Let's face it; the best part about owning a budget smartphone is saving more than a few bucks on a smartphone. At only $49.99, T-Mobile has made buying the Nokia Astound a no-brainer and with the great features that's packed in this low priced phone, $49.99 is a steal. There are lots of other smartphones that don't do half of what the Nokia Astound offers, but cost more than twice the Nokia Astound's price.
Sleek and Slim Design
One of the first things that you're bound to notice about the Nokia Astound Symbian smartphone is its unique, slim, and lightweight design. The Nokia Astound features a minimalistic and aesthetically appealing white and black design and sport several function buttons and a vibrant touchscreen. Although the Nokia Astound is a budget smartphone its design makes it look like a smartphone that cost you way more than it did.
HD Photo and Video Recording
Budget cell phones and smartphones usually have low-end 2 and 3 megapixel (and sometimes even lower), but not the Nokia Astound. This $49.99 Symbian smartphone is equipped to take high quality still photos and capture HD videos with an inbuilt 8 megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash, a front-facing VGA camera, and the ability to capture 720p HD quality video. In addition to providing excellent video and image capturing, the Nokia Astound also features a photo editor, allows Geotagging, has auto orientation filters, and makes managing your images and videos easy with an inbuilt photo manager.
Great Battery Life
No matter how great a smartphone is, the fun will only last as long as the phone's battery can hold up. The Nokia Astound features a 1200 mAh battery that allows up to 9 hours of talk time, 6.5 hours of video playback, 54 hours of music playback time, and 555 hours of standby time.
Excellent Hardware
Not only does the Nokia Astound feature an excellent 1200 mAh battery, but it also boasts a 680 MHz ARM 11 processor, 256 MB of RAM, 8 GB of storage (expandable to 40 GB), an 8 GB camera, and dedicated gaming graphics. While lots of other smartphones on the market are capable of trumping the Nokia Astound's hardware specs, for only $49.99, the Nokia Astound can't be beat.
