Nokia plans to introduce elements of its most expensive
Lumia phones in its lower priced smartphones in the Asha range and
bring down prices of the Windows phones, said the chief executive of
the Finnish phone maker.
The company on Friday launched its newest Lumia phone 1020 for the US
market. But the company is still some time away from bringing the
phone to India, where it possibly sees more potential for cheaper
phones than this one. The US launch price of the 1020, which has been
positioned more as an incredible camera coupled with the existing
smartphone, roughly translates to Rs 42,000. Apple's iPhone 5 is
available at Rs 45,000.
The Nokia Lumia 920 is available in India at about Rs 32,000 while the
Asha phones range between Rs 3,000 and Rs 6,000. A key differentiator
between the two phones is the operating system, Asha uses Symbian that
formed the basis of the early Nokia phones in the 2000s, while the
Lumia uses Microsoft developed Windows 8.
