Nokia C2-03

NOKIA C2-03 REVIEW

Nokia C2-03 was announced in June and available in India from August 2011. Thus is a Dual SIM phone with Dual Standby. It runs on Nokia Series 40 6th Edition OS. Nokia C2-03 is a stylish-curved designed - slide phone loaded with entertainment features to experience the unlimited fun. Nokia C2-03 comes with a new feature - Swappable Dual SIM. The C2-03 is embedded with a 2.6 inches with TFT resistive touchscreen coated over it. The Carbon graphite colour finish of the phone is well complemented by the metallic finish accents at the base, which adds a touch of style to it as well. The glossy band in between the two matte finish layers of the device makes it look good and gives the device an expensive look too. Overall from the colour schemes, the C2-03 looks great be it in graphite black or white and gold. The flush look of the display with minimalistic set of buttons also enhances the appearance of the device. There are only call connect and disconnect buttons on the front that are also embedded right at the display's level to make it neat. It has a big 2.6 inch TFT- LCD display with a VGA">QVGA resolution of 240 x 320 pixels. The display reproduces bright and quite colourful images. However, the display features a resistive touch based input system that surely is good but in this era of capacitive touchscreen, it feels a little bit from the house of Flintstones. Overall, the display is not the sweetest ones around and the low pixel density of just 154 PPI shows when you zoom in to pictures for details. The Keypad of the Nokia C2-03 is great which offers good comfortable typing for the users with its horizontally well spaced out keys and perfect key pitch combination. But, vertically the keys have been a little cramped and thus not suitable for fat fingers. The slide out keypad has a standard 12 key layout with glossy finish given to the keypad as well for good looking. Nokia C2-03 is a dual sim mobile phone that supports two sim simultaneously. The sim card slot is on the left side of the phone with covering. Except the dual sim support the phone is a basic feature phone that offers EDGE connectivity. C2-03 body is made up of plastic with numeric keypad. The phone is touch and type model that shows keypad when you slide up the phone. 2.6 inch QVGA touch screen is of resistive kind and not highly responsive. Its keypad is tiny with small keys and a little bit tough to type the text. The design of the phone is old one with slide, which is outdated. The body of the phone is round corner box type with slide.
