Why you can trust TechRadar
With a camera that's capable of shooting stills at just 2MP and that lacks a flash, you can't really expect a great deal by way of capability on the Nokia Asha 201.
And indeed there are limited features, although at least you can get to the features via a single menu accessed using the left softkey.
CLOSE UP: Fairly close in, on a bright day, this photo looks fine on the handset, though it might not pass muster as your main desktop image.
NIGHT: At night the camera really struggles, with little ability to cope with low light conditions.
MOVING: You don't want to shoot a moving subject since there just isn't the shutter speed to cope with it. Fortunately Tiddles held fairly still for us.
NEGATIVE:You can have a bit of fun with negative shooting mode.
Video
Video shooting on the Nokia Asha 201 is limited to a mere 176 x 144 pixels and 10 frames per second, so you really can't expect much of anything at all. Our sample videos show this quite amply.
