Today we saw the profile images of Nokia Philippine’s social networking sites turn an odd shade of green. But before we get into that (and before Nokia Philippines reveals what that means) it seems Nokia PH has been painting the town a little emerald even weeks before today.
A couple of weeks back when Manila had a close encounter with the Wicked kind, Nokia Philippines decided to drop by the magical land of Oz and hand over these lovely green Nokia Asha 503s to a handful of Philippines’ top thespians and artists. The result was, in a word, Wonderful.
One week before these actors were to watch the musical about the witches of Oz, friends from Nokia provided them with bright green Nokia Asha 503 Dual Sim phones to document their journey for the gala performance-viewing in their Emerald City costumes.
Robbie Zialcita, Cara Barredo, Hans Eckstein, Micah Muñoz, Alessa Zialcita, Naths Everett, Ayam Barredo-Eckstein, Tristan Cheng, Eric Mercado, and Antonio Lane snapped, shared and thoroughly enjoyed their process in preparing for the special event.
On the night of the gala, the actors who have performed with top theater groups including Repertory Philippines, Atlantis Productions, 4th Wall Theater Company, and Trumpets, arrived sporting their costumes with matching green Asha 503s.
BRIMMING WITH FEATURES
The Nokia Asha 503 Dual Sim is packed with useful features, such as Fastlane, which logs what the user has been upto and helps him or her to seamlessly switch between apps. It keeps track of his/her recent apps, games, music, social media notifications and more in a single interface; and the Nokia Xpress Browser, which allows users to browse the web faster while saving on data. Taking photos and sharing them were faster too with Nokia’s amazing UI. They just had to swipe up the lock screen to activate the 5MP camera, and sharing to various social feeds is done with a touch of a button. These features came in very handy as the actors took selfies in front of photowalls set up at the Cultural Center of the Philippines and snapshots with the touring show’s cast members and other famous personalities at the after party.
Line, LinkedIn, WeChat, and other great apps that matter to users are also available on the Nokia Asha 503 Dual Sim, and apparently the Asha 503 comes with a gift of ten free games! Wew. You can dance through life with that!
And, just like its 502 brother, the 503 comes in a really swanky acrylic “crystal” casing making this low-end smartphone stand out from the crowd!
“The Asha experience fired up my love for Nokia. It reminded me how Nokia was always easy to use while supplying me with the hip and happening applications of today,” said Repertory Philippines baby, Cara Barredo.
Micah Muñoz, also known for his role on ABS-CBN’s “Be Careful with my Heart” shared, “had a wicked awesome time with my Asha, it’s handy and trendy; fit for any cool cat out there.”
The Nokia Asha 503 Dual Sim is now available in Nokia Stores and authorized retailers in bright green as well as yellow, bright red, cyan, white and black at an affordable price of Php 5,200.
