Camera
The Nokia 603 comes with a 5MP fixed focus rear camera. There’s no LED flash and no front camera. Also, due to the fact that there’s no autofocus, macro shots are an absolute no go. For outdoor shots, colours are captured pretty well, but again, you will face focussing issues with the handset. Face recognition has been included, though. ![]() Gallery
720p video recording is present and though there’s a little colour banding, the phone captures a good amount of detail. Because it’s a fixed focus, the 603 should be best used for casual shots.

Battery Life
The phone comes with a 1300mAh battery, which under normal usage easily gave us close to one and a half days of usage. In our video calling test, we got 9 hours and 40 minutes with brightness maxed out and no connectivity options (besides calling) enabled. The battery life is pretty impressive.
Worth a buy
Verdict The Nokia 603 is priced at Rs.12,900 (MOP). At this price tag, it’s got a few older handsets like the Galaxy Ace and the Wildfire S to compete with. Naturally, the 603 is more recommended over those two. For Rs.1,500 more, you’ll get the Live with Walkman, which definitely has a better app store, but a poorer display quality and smaller screen size. As you can read in the review itself, we weren’t disappointed with this handset. The only cons included were the lack of an LED flash and a limited App store. If these aren’t a problem for you, then the Nokia 603 is a good buy. |

How We Test
The Tech2 Labs receives many products every single week and each of them is tested with the utmost care and highest level of objectivity. There’s a constant effort to reduce and totally eliminate subjectivity. Each product is tested according to set test processes so the same test scenario is used.

Verdict
The ratings awarded to a product are derived from a number of tests and calculations, keeping certain important factors in mind. These factors consist of features, performance, quality and value for money. In case of software and some other categories, build quality might be replaced with ease of use or ease of installation. Products are compared with other products in a similar price range or product category.
Features
The features component of the score is rated based on the kind of features present on a particular product. Features are a big part of what people look for when they’re buying a new product such as a phone or a camera.
Performance
The performance score is derived from the benchmarks and tests run on the product. In case of the subjective scores, an average of the scores given by the group of reviewers is considered.
Build Quality
The build quality of a product is important so that it doesn’t fall apart after some use. The build quality scores from the way the product is designed and the kind of materials used in the product.
Value
Value for money comes from the fact that a cheap product is able to provide most of the performance of a higher priced product. Once again, value for money is judged by comparing pricing and performance of products in a particular price range or category.
There are many other aspects of the product that are looked at such as the bundled software and accessories. All of these scores are aggregated together to form the final score.
What do the ratings mean?
Ratings are simple - higher the score, the better the product. A brief listing of the features and what they mean are given below.
1 - 3
The product is bad in almost every aspect. We strongly advise against purchasing this product.
4 - 6
An average product that isn't the best you can buy, but isn't the worst either.
7 - 8
Product with this rating is highly recommended because it's priced sensibly, has a good set of features and performs well.
9 - 10
Exceptionally excellent product with features and performance unlike any we've seen in the past. A must-have for everyone!

7.0
We’ve already established that the Lumia 720 is Nokia’s best effort as far as Windows Phone 8 handsets go. This could soon change once the Lumia 925 hits markets, but as it stands now, the Lumia 720 offers the best blend of features and performance, wrapped in a beautiful package that’s quite affordable.
