Nokia Browser helps consumers and operators to significantly cut costs
Nokia 302, like other Asha range of devices, provides a fast and affordable internet experience via Nokia's cloud-accelerated Nokia Browser, which makes internet content easy to discover with its localized and personalized home page design and portal to thousands of web apps. In addition to its speed, the browser compresses data traffic up to 90 percent, meaning cost reductions for consumers and operators, who can have better network utilization. Nokia Browser has been rapidly adopted, with almost four new users around the world activating it every second.

Anil Mahajan, COO, CGC, said," With the launch of the Asha range of devices – Nokia 200, 300, 302 ad 303 - in Qatar, enterprise mobility is well set to accelerate further with a compelling combination of smarter mobile devices packed with innovative services. Moreover, the availability of Mail For Exchange cost effectively will significantly help businesses across the domains achieve the productivity and employee satisfaction benefits that greater mobility affords them.”
