Nokia 515 Feature Phone Announced

Nokia has just announced the 515 - a feature phone that goes directly after many high-end smartphones in terms of build quality and the design. Its body is carved out of a single piece of sandblasted and anodized aluminum, the screen is made out of gently-curved and polarized Gorilla Glass 2 and the keyboard is built from hardened polycarbonate resin.

The Nokia 515 sports a 2.4" QVGA display, and has a 5 MP camera with voice-activated self photos, there's a microSD card slot with support for up to 32GB cards.

Although its available in single-SIM there's also a dual-SIM option while the battery is taunted to last a whopping 38 days of stand-by with a single SIM inside.

The Nokia 515 will begin shipping late this 2013 starting with Germany, Russia, Switzerland and Poland. Its price tag will be around €115/$149 before taxes and subsidies.
