  • 46 days standby, 12 hours (2G) talk-time; Dual-SIM 23 days standby

Also included, is a voice controlled assistant for self portraits to compensate for the lack of front facing camera. There"s also plenty of colors to choose from with the phone coming in yellow, cyan, black, magenta and white.

A dual-SIM edition of the phone will be available. Making use of Nokia’s unique Easy Swap technology, you can swap one of the SIMs, through a slot on the side, without having to power the phone off. The phone also remembers the settings for up to five different SIM cards.
