Compare C2-01 Deals

Nokia sells hundreds of millions of mobile handsets each year and the C2-01 lies somewhere between its most basic models and its high-end smart phones such as the Lumia 800.

It runs an operating system developed in-house by Nokia, so you can be sure that it is uncomplicated enough to enable you to find your way through the various functions. Despite its relative simplicity, there are still social-networking apps to give you access to services such as Facebook. In addition, you can head to the Ovi Store to download new programs to try out on your C2-01, so there is the potential for expansion of its capabilities further down the line.

On the outside, Nokia keeps things classy and stylish, with a black body highlighted with silver and chrome detailing. The small two-inch screen has a crisp resolution and is full colour, which is useful when using the web browser or viewing images you have captured using the 3.2-megapixel camera.

The C2-01 offers surprisingly fast 3G connectivity, so although there is no Wi-Fi you can still get online smoothly. Meanwhile, Bluetooth is built in to help you connect peripherals such as wireless headphones as well as giving you the option to share files over a short distance with other phone-owning friends.

It is worth investing in a Nokia C2-01 deal if you want a mobile which deals with modern functionality in an unfussy manner. While it does not quite deserve the smart-phone label, it is still a lot more capable than most bargain-basement handsets.
