Pros

If you want to interchange SIM cards, you do not have to take off the previously inserted one because Nokia Asha 305 lets you swap between two SIM cards to help you manage data use while keeping the costs down. Also, the Asha 305 brags of a spectacular battery life that is much higher compared to the average battery life for most phones. Although the camera only has 2MP, it features several advanced options like a full screen viewfinder, exposure compensation, color tone modes, white balance modes and more. And of course, for the individual who likes keeping lots of music files and photos on their phone, the Nokia Asha 305 comes with a 2GB microSD memory card.

 

Cons

The small touchscreen can make you feel like everything is so cramped up in a 3-inch wide screen. Compared to the Asha 311 model, it does not have a Wi-Fi connection and relies heavily on packet data connection. Most users claim that the Nokia Asha 305 does not have an impressive display specification with only 133 dpi. And the phone is quite chunky compared to other phone models. At 12.8mm, it is rather thick for bar phones. The camera is also not fit for indoor shooting because it does not have flash or ambient light sensor that lets the phone adjust automatically to screen brightness.

 

Conclusion

Interchanging two SIM cards is much easier and more efficient with the Nokia Asha 305; however, the rundown on this unit is that most people prefer having phones that are Wi-Fi enabled, allowing them to connect to places with Wi-Fi connection.
