Nokia's Lumia 610 is the most affordable device in the Windows Phone OS running Lumia range, but can it lure users away from Android?
PROS
Good-looking design; equally eye-catching mobile platform look and feel; onboard Microsoft Office hub; capable snapper; added camera functionality via Camera Extras and Creative Suite apps; Mix Radio and Nokia Drive apps work very well; and SkyDrive cloud
CONS
A bit pricey; not as snappy as Lumia kin; not all the Windows Phone OS apps work with this device; VGA video recording instead of HD-Ready; and can't be updated to WP8.
VERDICT
A great all round device for those whose budgets don't stretch beyond the R3 500 mark. Offers the perfect blend of good looks and spec bang for users looking for something different to Android.
