Nokia unveils 5 new phones: a 41 megapixel camera phone, a cheaper Windows phone and 3 new phones in the Asha series.

Nokia has just come forth at MWC with a slew of announcements, one of them being the announcement of Nokia 808 PureView camera phone.

Nokia gave few details of the specs, but said that it would run a 1.3 GHz single-core processor along with 512 MB of RAM. The 808 PureView will also sport 16GB of on-board memory that is expandable using a microSD card.

The winning feature of the phone happens to be a 41-megapixel sensor that has been developed after years of research. Nokia says they managed to do so using an interpolation technique that packs 5 pixels into 1.

The availability of the 808 PureView in India is not yet known.

Nokia also unveiled the rumored cheaper Windows phone, the Lumia 610. It runs on Windows Phone 7.5, is powered by Snapdragon S1 processor, has 256MB of RAM and 8GB storage. The Lumia 610 has a microUSB port, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1, a 5MP camera and GPS. The display of the Lumia 610 is a 3.7-inch WVGA TFT LCD; it is 12mm thin and weighs a mere 131.5 grams. The device is seamlessly integrated with Xbox Live.

The Lumia 610 comes in four colors - white, cyan, magenta and black. It is expected to be released in Q2 at approximately Rs. 13,000.

The Asha Series has also been expanded with three new phones. The 202 and 203 feature number keypads and resistive touch-screens. The only difference between the two is that the 203 comes with dual-SIM support. The 302 is a full-QWERTY device, said to be the first non-smartphone with Mail for Exchange support. All three phones run on the Series 40 platform.

While the 202 and 203 are expected to be priced around Rs. 4000, the 302 is expected to be around the Rs. 6500 mark. All 3 phones are expected to be available in March.
