KUWAIT: Nokia is set to save its customers up to 90 percent on mobile data costs with the Nokia Asha 311 from its affordable Asha Touch range. The new Asha 311 takes full advantage of the Nokia Browser 2.0, a major recent update which uses Nokia's cloud technology to reduce data consumption by up to 90%, meaning that consumers can enjoy faster and cheaper internet access.

Lower priced, the beautifully crafted Nokia Asha 311 takes the full touch experience of a mobile device to a completely new price point, boasting a fast and fluid 3.5G capacitive touch screen device, powered by a 1 GHz processor to provide a great internet experience.

"The launch of the Nokia Asha 311 is testament to our accelerated commitment to connecting the next billion consumers to the Internet. Designed to provide an incredibly rich smartphone-like experience, the Nokia Asha 311 enables consumers to be connected on-the go and also be set free from excessive data consumption costs," said Vithesh Reddy, General Manager, Nokia Lower Gulf.

Great for fast, affordable mobile Internet and gaming entertainment, Web sites load up to three times faster in comparison to devices without cloud-accelerated browsing, making it simple for users to find and select from more than 10,000 web apps available for download. They deliver a richer and more interactive consumer experience whilst using less data than a stand-alone Internet connected app.

Consumers can easily stay connected with friends and family at the touch of a button as well as share files and links across their social networks. Furthermore, the Nokia Browser's Download Manager feature helps consumers to manage external content easily, saving music, video or pictures on a memory card, while surfing the Internet.

As well as providing a great, social online experience, the Nokia Asha 311 has been created with entertainment in mind. All users will receive an exclusive gift of 40 EA games to download for free* and keep forever. These games range across action, arcade and sports, and include titles such as Tetris, Bejeweled, Need for Speed: The Run and Fifa 2012.

The Nokia Asha 311 is a colourful, compact touch screen device that comes with all the features you'd expect for a fun and easy mobile experience. It boasts a bright and colourful, scratch resistant capacitive glass screen with polarization filters ensuring users get the best experience from the unique and visually entertaining user interface. The Nokia Asha 311 also features a 3.2MP camera and pre-installed Nokia Maps, in addition to the 15 level pre-bundled version of Angry Birds.

The pre-loaded social client makes accessing Facebook, Twitter and many other global social networks simple while Nokia Browser makes using mobile Internet fast and affordable. It also includes the most popular messaging services.
