Nokia Lumia 710 and Asha 201 come to Vodafone

Vodafone UK has announced the Nokia Lumia 710 and the Nokia Asha 201 are available on its network.

The Lumia 710 is Nokia's budget Windows Phone. Compared with the Lumia 800, it's feels like the less expensive device - which it is - but it does come with a fast processor, Windows Phone Mango, Nokia apps including Nokia's Drive SatNav and interchangeable back covers for a splash of colour.

In our Lumia 710 review we said: 'The Nokia Lumia 710 is a solid device at a decent price with a great operating system - what more could you want?'

Prices start at £20.50-a-month if you want the phone free. For your money you get 100 minutes, 500 texts and 250MB of data. Vodafone also offers unlimited data for the first three months of your 24 month contract.

The Nokia Asha 201, which Vodafone has exclusivity on the white version, is a very budget-friendly mobile. The handset costs £45, and for your money you get a 2.4-inch display, Qwerty keyboard and connectivity with social networks.

Vodafone also mentioned a new reward system for prepay customers.

When you top-up a minimum of £5, you get a voucher code that can be used to give you an instant reward like extra minutes, or you can save them up and go for something more impressive like an iPhone.

We've been informed a grey version of the Asha 201 is on the way, if the white version proves to, erm, white.
