Product description:

• The Nokia C1-00 is a well designed and well laid-out set and is worth every penny that you invest in buying it. The keypad makes it a sweet deal for the message lovers. Messaging on the go is absolute fun with the Nokia C1-01. The set is a decent looking one. Some awesome shades do make the C1-01 look awesomely funky though. The available features like the Opera-Mini browser, Calendar, Clock, Advanced calculator, Expense manager, World clock, Converter and Organiser make the Nokia C1-01 a very sweet deal. But don’t be fooled by all these options. The set is an average performer and is particularly good at almost nothing in particular to boast of. The keypad is made up of hard plastic keys, which makes messaging a great pleasure. The Nokia C1-01 looks much tougher and does have a tough build. I give it an eight just because of the extensive 32GB external memory support and internet connectivity option at a very low and reasonable cost. But the audio output quality is just basic level and is absolutely no pleasure.

Plus Points:
• Great looks.
• Live Radio recording
• Awesome external memory support of 32GB.
• Good User Interface.
• Good and durable keypad which is ideal for messaging.
• Internet connectivity.

Minus Points:
• It is true that the features of the Nokia C1-01 are really great. But all the features including the camera are basic ones and do not give you a real punch as in the high end phones.
• You can expect the Nokia C1 -01 to be a set which has a little bit of everything. It’s just a jack of all trades and master of none. You may buy this one if you want Internet connectivity and multimedia service at a very low cost.
• Browsing is definitely no pleasure with such a small screen. This minus point can however be overcome by connecting the Nokia C1-01 to the PC for browsing purposes.
