Good for someone who wants a phone for a few games but not full fledged smartphone.

Conclusion Page needs correction. The Samsung Galaxy Y has a 3.0 inch screen not a 2.6" one..
Correct this as this can be somewhat confusing for some users..
And i don't like the rating. I mean it should be below 5 cuz it packs a decent hardware from today's standard and still does not have multitasking and other important things

It isn't a smartphone, and hence lacks most capabilities for true multitasking. Keep in mind the iPhone doesn't even offer true multitasking, so by your logic it should automatically lose 5 points for that.

It's the Galaxy Y Pro listed as an alternative, which has a 2.6-incher :-)

The ratings are supposedly based on similar types of phone - feature phones don't have multi-tasking or quad core processors so no marks knocked off. Also how many feature phones have fast 3g and wifi ... not many. Probably only one or two with wifi. Few even have touchscreens. So this is quite special. You probably are looking at the wrong kind of phone if you think this deserves a low score.

You mentioned two Android phones as worthwhile options. Keep in mind many carriers require a data plan for Androids, whereas Series 40s can get away without the requirement, and/or get a feature phone data plan. Significant cost savings, especially in the target markets

Keyboard looks almost identical to the nokia E63,E71,E72 etc range - these certainly are judged to be good keyboards. Is this one really so much worse?

Nokia Asha 303 is the latest phone with all luxury features at an affordable rate. Asha 303 is available across the Indian sub continent in all stores and online retail websites. Asha 303 is also packed with Nokia Messenger to chat or share files live and exclusively free any where and anytime.
The whatsapp is a inbuilt feature in the Nokia Asha 303 that gives direct free access to connect and share anything with all your contacts available in your phone. Nokia is the first mobile maker to give such a great feature. No need to install Skype, FB chat, G-chat or any other networking app in your phone, whatsapp fills all your requirements.
Asha 303 is also a good phone for Internet browsing, the innovative S40 OS can download multiple pages at once for lightning speed webpage browsing and one touch or push for direct downloads.
The first day of launch of Asha 303 in the Indian market, made people restless of having a messenger phone that saves upto 90% of their cost.

It's the best of all "Ashas", Touch screen is also better than Asha 300.

Asha 303 is basically a touch and type phone that gives access to over 3 million apps and 2 million games.
Basically the whats app features saves 90% of the money, with which we can do share live anytime anything with all our contact lists.
I can download unlimited data at a very faster 2g speed. i actually use a Nokia Asha 303 and Nokia has recently signed an agreement with Vodafone India to provide assured speed with attractive data plans to all the asha 303 users in India.
so iam very happy paying just a couple of money for high speed and unlimited data plans. Thanks to Nokia Asha 303

Nokia Asha 303 is the best touch and type phone that I have used to date, my previous phone was a Nokia X3 and that was frankly dissapointing. It is affordable, simple to use with a friendly user interface. I was looking for a phone that wasn't to complicated to use, I am not really into playing tons of games or downloading lots of apps I like to use a phone for basic phone calls and texts, don't be put off by that it will download apps and games galore if you want it to and is preloaded with lots of goodies anyway, it is aimed at a younger market and I am nearly sixty so if you are older like me you don't have to be a technical whizz Kid to use it beleive me. I use facebook for family and friends and with wifi connectivity its fast and furious with connection and I get updateds with BTFON for free with no extra data charges to the touch screen. You can connect it to other dvices and I use it along with my my desktop and laptop via nokia suite,that's great as it will also update the software on your phone and you can get faster downloads that way if you want them. It has a radio and a camera and takes video's as well, the camera isn't what I would call brilliant but if you just want to be able to take the odd family snap or of friends and pets etc when out and about then it's perfectaly ok for that and the pictures are acceptable and can be uploaded to facebook etc, if you are wanting the perfect picture of a beatuiful sunset or something with much more detail then you will need the use of another camera, the radio is fine with headphones if you are on a train journey and so are the games if you like them. The keyboard is easy to use and navigate, just a liitle on the small side for seeing what is displayed there but my eyesight is not so good these days so ithe fault really lies with me so don't let that put you off. It has bluetooth as well and I thouroughly reccomend this phone to all age groups. I have had a lot of phones since mobiles started and I know that Nokia perhaps is a little tired as the market goes, but in general and I have had other makes I find there phones the most reliable and I would sincerely give this a 9/10 it the camera was of a higher spec then 10/10
