Last month, Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia made official the first handset in its Asha lineup to sport a dedicated WhatsApp button, namely the Nokia Asha 210, and the device is now available for purchase in India.

The handset can now be seen on this page on Saholic’s website, featuring a price tag of Rs 3,999 ($71.62 / €55.75) attached to it. However, Nokia is not selling the phone as of yet.

The mobile phone packs a QWERTY keyboard and a 2.4-inch QVGA (320×240 pixels) display, and should prove a great option for those looking for an affordable messaging device.

Asha 210 also sports a 2-megapixel camera, 64MB of internal memory, microSD memory card slot, dual-SIM capabilities, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, FM Radio, and a 1200mAh battery.

The Series 40 device comes with preloaded apps such as WhatsApp, Nokia Xpress browser, Facebook Messenger, Twitter, and more.
