Nokia C2 is a 2010 phone. This is another representative of the C family from the Finnish manufacturer, which includes inexpensive, but very functional models. What can the Nokia C2 mobile phone boast of and what do customers say about it? Read on and we will talk about all its pros and cons.
Design
The Nokia C2 phone is available in three colors: black, white and gold. The case is rounded, made of plastic, but does not look cheap. Its dimensions are 11 x 4.7 x 1.5 cm, and weighs 89 g - that is, it is compact, “plump,” but rather lightweight. Therefore, it lies comfortably in any palm and fits even in small pockets.
Nokia C2 has a 2-inch TFT display with a resolution of 240 by 320 pixels and a pixel density of 220. It supports 262 thousand colors and has good viewing angles.
There is a miniUSB connector on the right side, a microSD card slot on the left, a headphone jack on the top, and a microphone on the bottom.
"Stuffing" Nokia C2
The characteristics of the model are pretty standard for 2010-2011.
The phone book can contain up to 2000 contacts. The model has 43 MB of non-volatile memory and 64 MB of RAM.
A media player that plays audio and video files of the most common formats, a radio (headphones are required that play the role of an antenna), which remembers the selected stations, will help you not to get bored while traveling or while working. To enjoy the sound better, you can connect an external speaker with a 3.5 mm jack.
And so that you have enough interesting files to play, the phone works with memory cards up to 16 GB.
Using microUSB or Bluetooth, you can connect to a computer for data transfer, and you can work with the Internet and other services using GPRS, EDGE or 3G.
The 3.2 MP camera takes photos with a resolution of up to 2048 by 1536 pixels, and shoots video as 320 by 240 pixels (15 frames per second). But since it lacks flash and autofocus, a satisfactory result can only be expected in good light.
Interface
Nokia C2 is the representative of Series 40 phones, namely the 6th edition. Many games, applications, and themes have been released for this OS. The pre-installed OperaMini browser, an email client, an application for Facebook, Windows Live and Nokia Messaging, support for Java and Flash Lite 3.0 only expand the capabilities of the user.
Alarm clock, calendar, converter, world clock, timer, as well as Ovi cards from the Finnish brand - this phone has all the necessary tools.
And thanks to the support of Nokia PC Suite, the user can easily transfer and edit contacts, download new cards, manage the contents of the memory card, export SMS and calendar notes, and perform many other useful and necessary operations.
Battery
Nokia C2 has a 1020mA battery. It should provide up to:
- 396 hours (16.5 days) in standby mode when working with 3G or 456 hours (19 days) when working with 2G;
- 8.8 hours of conversation when using 2G or 4.5 hours when using 3G;
- 34 hours of music playback.
Charging takes place using a charger with a 2 mm connector or when connected via microUSB (both cables are included in the package).
Customer reviews
Users note such advantages of the model:
- Nokia C2 is qualitatively assembled, does not leave a feeling of fragility and unreliability, while being affordable;
- the digital keys are noticeably divided and have a convex shape, so they are easily and accurately pressed;
- the phone gives a clear, fairly loud and pleasant sound when listening to music and calls;
- You can quickly change the memory card;
- the battery lasts a long time.
But what disappointed buyers:
- the sound during the conversation is greatly distorted during sudden jumps in volume - laughter or coughing, for example;
- there is no “rocker” button for adjusting the volume and the camera shutter button;
- the browser is quite slow, especially compared to similar models from other manufacturers;
- the quality of the pictures is lame, with a small increase, graininess immediately becomes noticeable, the video normally looks only on the small screen of the device, on the computer it looks very bad.
To summarize
The target audience of Nokia C2 is users who are interested in multimedia entertainment, the ability to communicate on social networks and via e-mail regardless of their location, 3G support and affordable phone price.
However, in fact, it does not show itself best when working with the Internet, but when performing basic functions - calls, SMS. Rare photos and infrequent site browsing - weather, news or checking mail - these are the maximum of its capabilities.
