Nokia C2: Specs and Price in Nigeria. Most Affordable Phone of 2020

Nokia C2

Nokia C2 has been announced and released in 2020. The device is a 4G Android which arrived with many nice features. But when you look at its size, it is a little small compared to its counterparts. Released in the month of April 2020, this is lightweight because the battery is remarkably small. It is however, a cheap smartphone that sells below a hundred dollars. Without fingerprint, and without good quality cameras. This device is a no-brainer. So, what made of broke the Nokia C2? Let’s see.

Nokia C2 Design

On the outside, the Nokia C2 comes with a glass front, plastic back, and plastic frame, just to accommodate the price. Body dimensions are 154.8 x 75.6 x 8.9 mm and it weighs 161 grams. Also, the shape and look of the phone is bar-like. But its colors are cyan and black.

Nokia C2 Display

The display features tell us just how much of an entry-level device Nokia C2 is. The screen resolution is 720 x 1440 pixels. The size of the display is 5.7 inches which is a little small. 71.6 percent of screen to body ratio, 18:9 aspect ratio, and 282 ppi density

Nokia C2 Processor

Nokia C2 runs on the 64-bit Unisoc chipset. The 28nm shows just how much the phone lags behind in nm processing technology. Furthermore, the CPU is Quad-core 1,4 GHz. That works alongside the GPU for graphic displays in the device.

Storage Features

Storage space is very minimal for Nokia at 1 GB RAM paired with 16 GB internal storage. This RAM composition can’t be increased to any other desired level. Although the user must make use of space wisely or even discreetly, the external side storage can be increased somewhat with micro SD card.

Battery Power

Powering the Nokia C2 is a good 2800 mAh Li-Ion battery. This is one reason the device is lightweight. There are no fast charging or wireless charging for the smartphone. However, it may offer good backing because of the scanty features the device came with.

Speaker and Call Quality

The Nokia C2 phone is able to support video player, and you can listen to music through the loudspeakers. The sound is normal and the common Nokia sound. You can feel at ease as you make phone calls. There is also a 3.5mm jack to accommodate headphones or earphones for noise cancellation.

Software Features & Sensors

Nokia C2 comes with an Android 9.0 operating system (OS) on custom user interface. This is best for a phone of this configuration and features. The sensors are an accelerometer, proximity, light, and compass.

Camera, Video, and Image Quality

Oh! Come on, HMD… What to do with the main camera of 5 MP at the rear! No manner of features can make this kind of megapixel fly. Even if there are HDR, panorama, LED flash, portrait mode, beauty mode, burst mode, and more in the primary camera, they just don’t make sense. The selfie camera is a single 5 MP. The apertures are able to produce 720p videos.

The Verdict

Fans are really complaining about how Nokia phones lack the desire to compete with modern phones. Some have said that the phone should have been selling for N15,000 while others claim that Nokia should already leave the smartphone market. We think that the company is only targeting teenagers in some parts of the world, or people who have less experience with making use of Android smartphones. Unless the company is able to back this C2 up with an amazing design soon, fans may have to look elsewhere. The good thing is HMD has branded this as the most affordable device from the company. What a way to start 2020.
