Nokia C2-00 Review

Nokia C2-00 Review. Nokia's first full dual-SIM phone, the Nokia C2-00 is a basic entry-level device aimed primarily at emerging markets. Nokia C2-00 comes with Bluetooth, a microSD slot, a multimedia player, FM radio, VGA resolution camera, a 3.5mm audio connector, and in addition the standard sales package includes a Nokia WH-102 stereo wired headset.

The display is a basic 1.8" 128 x 160 pixel panel, and network support is limited to dual-band GSM with GPRS data only, and the operating system is Series 40 rather than anything fancy.

The clever part with the C2-00 is the dual-SIM capability. Both SIMs are active at the same time, so it really is like having two phones at once as either SIM can receive calls and the user can decide which SIM to use when dialing out.

Nokia C2-00 Perhaps the cleverest thing with the dual-SIM arrangement is that the second SIM is hot-swappable through a slot in the C2, so it can be inserted when the phone is on. The C2-00 also comes with the usual Series 40 applications for personal information management, plus an email client and web browser. The multimedia player can cope with MP3, WMA and AAC formats, which when combined with the memory slot and 3.5mm audio socket will make it a useful music player.

Nokia estimates that the C2 has up to 4 hours talk time and 16.5 days standby time, whether this is in dual-SIM or single-SIM configuration is not very clear. The handset weighs just 74 grams and measures 108 x 45 x 15mm.It is also a nice looking phone, available in gray, black, magenta, blue and white color schemes.
