Nokia’s Asha devices have been recently deemed as smartphones, although they are powered by the Series 40 platform, mainly courtesy of the wide range of applications they have to offer to users.

One of these apps is coming from Nokia itself in the form of Nokia Nearby, aimed at providing users with a new way to discover things around them.

With Asha phones highly popular in emerging markets, it comes as no surprise that the company has decided to advertise the application on an Asha 308 smartphone in India, just as can be seen in the video embedded above.

“Introducing the Nokia Nearby app on the Nokia Asha 308. Bringing to you a whole new way to discover new places and things to do in your city. Now look for restaurants, cinemas and even police stations within seconds using the Nokia Nearby app on the Nokia Asha 308 dual-SIM smartphone,” Nokia notes.
