The Nokia Asha 302 is currently available in the UK. The first operator to stock it is Three of UK. The Nokia Asha 302 is among the three new Nokia Asha-branded S40 feature phones announced a week ago in Barcelona during Mobile World Congress 2012. It was leaked once before that, and it's a cheap QWERTY candybar for that masses.

It's quite cool how the Asha 302 took this short amount of time to go from announcement to availability. Service Provider Three offers it both on Pay Monthly plans as well as Pay as you go if you'd rather not agree to long-term contracts.

On contract, the Nokia Asha 302 could be yours free of charge starting at £15 each month. For that amount of cash you'll get 300 minutes, 5,000 texts, and 250 MB of information each month. In the exact opposite side with the spectrum sits Three's The main one Plan, that provides you 2,000 minutes, 5,000 Three-to-Three minutes, 5,000 texts, in addition to All-you-can-eat data for £30 per month. There are some other options though, make sure you check them out too prior to you making up your mind.

On Pay as you go, the Nokia Asha 302 costs just £89.99, meaning that unless you need a new contract, you're probably better off paying much upfront while not having to shell out money every month (no matter how little). But it's your decision after all. To obtain your Asha 302 now, head on over to Three.

The Nokia Asha 302 includes a 2.4-inch 240×320 display, single GHz processor, a 3.15 MP camera with video recording support, 256 MB of ROM, 128 MB of RAM, microSD card slot, 14.4 Mbps HSDPA, 5.76 Mbps HSUPA, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, plus a 1,320 mAh battery.

I guess you still remember how AT&T held exclusivity for iPhone sales in the US for many years - up until the Verizon iPhone 4 was finally launched last year. Well, the same thing has been going on in China.

When the iPhone first arrived over there, the exclusive carrier has been China Unicom. That's the second biggest carrier, as China Mobile (who's No.1) uses TD-SCDMA for 3G, a Chinese tech which hasn't so far been used anywhere else in the world and which Apple has been reluctant to include into its iPhones. So that left Apple with the choice of selling an EDGE device to China Mobile customers or going with China Unicom, which uses the WCDMA 3G that's also found pretty much everywhere across the globe.

But the Verizon (and then Sprint) iPhone launches meant that Apple now gonna make a CDMA iPhone. And China Telecom has a CDMA mobile network in China. So, Guys, starting today, for the first time there's some competition in China for the iPhone. China Telecom has started selling the iPhone 4S today, almost two months after China Unicom did the same thing. Although it's the smallest of the ‘big three' Chinese carriers, China Telecom will surely benefit immensely from the new partnership with Apple.
