    I am using Asha 206 white mobile for the past three days. Pros: Call quality is good. conference calls are also crystal clear. Weight of the mobile is very less. You don't even feel that it is inside the pocket. After using big android mobiles it is a great relief. Messages are allowed for 20 at a time. we need to create different groups if we want to send for more. Typing messages are soft. we don't feel the pain of typing as we are feeling in LG and SAMSUNG entry level mobiles. Battery is awesome. One line is coming for half day. there are 4 lines. so two days is for sure even if you talk 4 to 5 hours daily with 2 hours of music. Applications in this mobile are surprising. we get so many pre installed application like facebook,viber, e buddy twitter etc. Mails are also quite fast. You can check your mails of various account by configuring the same. Net browsing is also ease. Pages are getting loaded fast. Last but not the least. Look is awesome. You don't have anything else other than key pads,charger and ear phone socket. Beautiful to carry and camera quality is also acceptable. I even taken a photo and uploaded in facebook. It came nicely. Cons: screen is bit small. we feel more after using android. copy paste option is not there. we are not able to set fav song as ringtone directly. we need to go to profile and browse and then we need to assign. I am not able to see more drawbacks for this price of 3600/- Awesome piece and great work from nikia.
