Nokia has announced two new budget phones, dubbed Nokia 220 and Nokia Asha 230, at the Mobile World Congress (MWC 2014) in Barcelona.

The Finnish giant has announced that the Nokia 220 feature phone will be available in select markets at 29 euros (excluding taxes or operator subsidies), which translates to roughly Rs. 2,500, while the Nokia Asha 230 has been priced at 45 euros (Rs. 3,900 approximately).

Notably, both the Nokia 220 and Nokia Asha 230 have been launched in two variants: single SIM and dual-SIM. It's worth pointing out that the Finnish giant has now listed the Nokia 220 Dual SIM and Nokia Asha 230 Dual SIM on its India official site.

The company notes that the Nokia 220 has been built on the success of the Nokia 110 budget phone. The Nokia 220 features a 2.4-inch QVGA LCD display. It sports a 2-megapixel rear camera and also supports expandable storage up to 32GB microSD card. Connectivity options on the phone include Micro-USB and Bluetooth.
