Nokia’s budget offering, the C2 has officially made its way to the market of Nepal starting today, all thanks to Teletalk Pvt. Ltd. — Nokia’s official distributor in Nepal.
While the phone brings the same aesthetic over its predecessor C1, it does have slight improvements, mainly in its display. The Nokia C2 has a larger 5.7-inch HD+ display with a resolution of 1440 x 720 pixels, which is an upgrade over C1’s 480 x 960 pixels.
Under the hood, the device gets a Unisoc (28nm) quad-core chipset alongside 1GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage, which should be enough considering it runs on Android Go (9.0 Pie) edition.
Optics wise, there’s not much change. It still has the single 5MP camera at the rear but with a slightly larger aperture of f/2.2, while for selfies you get a similar 5MP camera the front.
