Comparisons Featuring Nokia Lumia 510

Short Review

  • The Nokia Lumia 510 features a compact design with dimensions of 120.7 x 64.9 x 11.5 mm and a weight of 129 grams, making it easy to handle.
  • Its 4.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7227A Snapdragon S1 chipset, paired with an 800 MHz Cortex-A5 CPU and Adreno 200 GPU, alongside 4GB of storage and 256MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The rear camera is a 5 MP unit with autofocus, capable of recording video at 480p, while there is no front-facing camera.
  • The 1300 mAh battery provides basic power support but lacks fast charging and wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Microsoft Windows Phone 7.8, the software experience is straightforward but may feel dated compared to newer platforms.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device is available in multiple colors, including white, cyan, black, red, and yellow.
  • Overall, the Lumia 510 is a basic smartphone with essential features, suitable for users with minimal demands.
  • Its build quality and design reflect Nokia's traditional approach to durability and usability.
