It’s called Nokia Lumia 610 and it’s the most affordable Nokia smartphone among the latest devices presented both at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, which is still ongoing, and at CES 2012, held in January in Las Vegas.

The screen is a 3.7-inch capacitive multitouch LCD with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels and includes accelerometer and proximity sensor functions.
Everything is enclosed in a unibody aluminum casing, making this smartphone quite sleek.
The camera is 5 Megapixels, with an integrated LED flash, autofocus system, face recognition, and a feature that allows geotagging captured images. The same camera also allows for video recording and utilizes dual microphones for good quality audio recordings.
The battery is noteworthy for its durability: it’s a 1300 mAh Li-Ion, which on paper should provide 7 hours of talk time and 550 hours of standby.
Finally, the price of the Nokia Lumia 610 is around 200 euros, making it the first low-cost Windows Phone in Nokia and Windows history.
