Nokia C3 – Cheap QWERTY phone at Price of Rs.5500 with Wi-Fi

on April 13, 2010 – 3:49 pm104 Comments

Nokia seems to have a launched a fully loaded phone – the Nokia C3 , at a very affordable price.  It’s the world’s first QWERTY phone based on the S40 platform. Till now S40 phones had only T9 keypads which were not comfortable to type a lot. The C3  brings messaging and social networking to the masses. It comes with Nokia Messaging tailored for Series 40 meaning that you can open an email account without having to logon to a PC if you are those parts of the world where PCs don’t exist.

The phone comes with OVI Chat and Conversational SMS Chat. And guess what  the phone has Wi-Fi capability , 2 Megapixel Camera and 2.4 inch display, 8 GB microSD card support

The Nokia C3 is the first device to bring a full QWERTY keyboard to the world’s most popular mobile phone platform – Series 40 – and is the first in the range to enable access to social networks directly on the homescreen. People can view, comment, update their status and share pictures to their favorite social networks such as Facebook and Twitter.

Nokia C3 Price and Availability

The phone is expected to cost just Rs.5500 approx and such a price would make this phone a great value for money device. The C3 is expected to go on sale in Q2 2010 and will be available in various colors including Golden white, slate grey and hot pink.

  • eljo

    the first requirement of a phone is having a good platform rather than QWERTY keyboard or Wi-Fi. s40 is a worst mobile platform wich do not support multitasking. it looks very cheap as its price.
    Nokia is now competing with china mobiles. hooooooooooooooo!

  • Ritesh

    These days lots of Qwerty Keypad phone available in the Market.
    the reason behind the low price tag is that, these phones are based on Java Platform(Java is freeware).
    these are not very supportive in case of installing external Software.. which is possible in Symbian based phone.
    Also you will not able to run Online Videos, coz these phones don’t have RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol).
