Updated: We've taken another look at the Lumia 610, with a new price drop making it much cheaper - but does it make it better than the still-cheaper Nokia Lumia 710 ? The Nokia Lumia 610 has placed itself squarely at the low end of the smartphone market...

The Nokia Lumia 610 is a great addition to the Lumia stable (and to Windows Phone in general), thanks to its incredibly low price tag. While the launch of Windows Phone Tango means that we can expect more budget handsets in the future, for now this is ab...

We loved the Nokia Lumia 800, and praised its less fiscally demanding alternative, the Lumia 710, almost as highly. The Lumia 610 is an entry-level model in Nokia’s Windows Phone 7 range, available for $449 from Vodafone.The first thing that struck me...

The Nokia Lumia 610 is a budget Windows Phone 7.5 handset. Hardware cuts have been made to get the price under £200, but most must-have smartphone features are included. And while lag has increased, it's snappy enough to go head-to-head with similarly-pri...

The Nokia Lumia 610 is based around a 3.7-inch touchscreen display that is bright enough in most lighting conditions to allow you to see what's happening. Available in an array of colours, the design is nicely curved and feels good in the hand. The backplate is plastic and comes off to allow you to slip the microSIM and battery inside, while the front is metal and glass, which adds a rigidity to...
We like the overall design of the Nokia Lumia 610 but we have to admit, the function buttons on the right-hand side feel a little small and fiddly. This was too when testing out the camera, with tapping the screen working out a better solution that struggling to push the button and not move the phone! The Nokia Lumia 610 starts to show its budget roots when you start digging away at the tech spec...

To be honest, we find it a little hard to recommend the Nokia's Lumia 610 at the moment, even for those who are looking for a budget smartphone which will still do more of what higher-end models will. The reason is the price. You can buy the Lumia 610 fo...
