Nokia C2 Specs, Price, and Best Deals

The Nokia C2 is the successor of the Nokia C1 smartphone that was announced last year in December by HMD Global. Unlike the Nokia C1 that packs 3G, the successor comes preloaded with 4G LTE Network.

Apart from that, the device is designed for everyone not just for those purchasing their first smartphone. The phone brings some upgrades on the hood. Let’s check them out.

Design and Display

In terms of body design, it still maintains the same pattern as the Nokia C1. There is nothing spectacular on the body. It has a smooth panel that houses the camera, an LED flash, and the branded logo. This is to say, there is still no fingerprint scanner on the phone.

The Nokia C2 has body dimensions of 154.8 x 75.6 x 8.9 mm and the weight just 161 grams. Overall, it’s built with a combination of glass and plastic. You will find the dedicated Google Assistant button on the left side.

On the front, the bezels are still there both on the top and bottom of the screen. However, it offers a bigger screen size of 5.7-inch which has a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, 18:9 ratio and 282 PPI density.

Camera

The company ships the affordable android phone with a single rear camera of 5MP f/2.2 positioned in the middle of the panel alongside an LED flash.

Just like it’s predecessor, it also comes with a front camera of 5MP that is also paired with an LED flash for low background photos.

Hardware and Software

The budget device from HMD has a Unisoc processor which is not specified. However, the SOC comes with a Quad-core processor running at a speed of 1.4 GHz.

It has average inbuilt storage of 16GB coupled with 1GB RAM. You can still expand the memory using a dedicated micro SD card slot up to 64GB. It runs on Android 9 Pie (Go Edition) not really Android 10 (Go Edition). Hopefully, an update will be made available soon.
