Review of Nokia C2-00

The dual SIM phone is usually considered to be the domain of hardly-known brands. However, there are some well known manufacturers that have come up with such phones and the devices warrant a look. If you have to make numerous calls on a shoestring budget, there's hardly anything to beat the Nokia C2-00.

On the first look, the phone looks like a mid-range handset from the early 2000s. It, nevertheless, is a modest device and actually makes enough sense and use. The dual SIM and dual standby feature is the undeniable highlight. This means, you can get two active phones in a single device. Better still, your second SIM can be swapped easily via a side mounted slot. This means you can juggle between multiple SIM cards with considerable ease. You can also get a support for large micro SD cards. This means that the C2-00 doubles up as a FM radio or a music player with recording capability (in select variations of the model). Besides, the loudspeaker produces extra-loud sound. There's no doubt that the device is a cheap phone and like all other cheap phones, the camera is as basic as it is supposed to be.

Instead of loading the phone with any fancy disguise, Nokia simply added some features so that this cheap phone is even more helpful.
