benny, 05 Aug 2011GSM arena why wasting time on this crap.. please tell us how to update samsung galaxy s2 on 2.... moreIts not true. There are a lots of people in this world who uses their cellphone mainly for voice call & massaging. For those people buying an iphone or a droid is just a waste of money. Different operator offers us different packages. For example in my country (Bangladesh) Grameenphone has the strongest & largest network coverage but also expensive call rates and Airtel offers us the most economical call rates but weak signal strength. So when i stay in the city i use Airtel for both important or casual phonecalls, but when i go outside the city specially countryside i use Grameenphone for only important phonecalls. Which reduced my phonebill about 30% comparing with previous months. Which is very important for a student like me. Moreover i can check & update my facebook account, chat with my yahoo & fb frnds (by mig33), check my mail regularly, enjoying my fav musics on the way(i added a 4GB card) & use this phone as a internet modem with my laptop. Paying only about 70$ without any agreement with any operator, isn't it great? At least it server all my purpose 100%. And i attracted for this phone after reading this article. So this article can't be a waste of time.
Anoop, 05 Aug 2011Just purchased a C2-00. Whenever I make a call normally, the voice can be heard from the earpi... morei to having the same problem is the company having only one speker for both ear pies and loud speaker
To my best of knowledge.Nokia C2.00, is the best among the rest phones ever expirience.fast in browsing,easy to understand,using two sim card & loaded with diffrent kind icon.infact is the best
dis advantage: your speaker will be on automatically once your call is connected. To avoid this you need to use your head phone. If you do not connect your head phone any one can listen your on going conversation.
great blog and great review about this latest mobile phone
why only 1.8 screenz what sup with that?? 2.2 at least
I appreciate the review but it didn't talk about much of nokia's unique take to dual sim - the sim swap. The 2nd slot can accommodate up to 5 sim cards and recognize it separately. You need to be dexterous to be able to change sims - believe me you don't want to change sims in a moving vehicle. Probably Nokia could do something about this in its next incarnation. Other than that, it my phone for now.
is c2 00 available in qatar
How can i see a online video On NOKIA C2-00 mobile.pls rpl me.
no flashlight ftw!
In terms of price-to-feature ratio. the X1-01 beats this phone hands down. X1 own everything in its price range.
at C2-00 price range; it wont keep up. the samsung or LG dual sims offer better features at similar prices
Did this phone REALLY require a review? Its Dual Sim. End of story. A whole review just for this thing? :/
all dual sims phone including china made dual sims are dual sims,dual standby but SINGLE ANTENNA...that explain y when u r making or receiving a call on C2-00,1 of the signal will b missing and it will activate again once ur call is ended
Samsung C3322 is a far better deal...with the same price you'll get 2.2 inch QVGA screen, 2 mp camera, better design with metal front case...yes, metal...at a very cheap price. An answer for people who always say metal is only for high ends handsets.

may be i'm lucky to get the durable 1, i don't change phone much, i only had 2 nokias, 1 SE, 1 china dual sim, 1 nexus s.. the 1st nokia last until now, only the body messed up but easily replaceable, my 2nd nokia (5800) isn't as good as the 1st, already went to repair twice in 3 years.. my china phone works fine till now but it's boring-old phone (boring like c2-00 except much older).. i hope samsung did a great job in nexus s, so far 8 months (since last december) hvn't had any hardware problem..
i just hope that nokia do something extraordinary amazing. Their top phone is not as competitive as the others, their mid range is so-so, their low end losing in feature with china phone.. while different people are having different result with their phone, some having terrible built quality, some having great durability..
that's why nokia lose it's ground on number 1. i remember good old days, their high end is the best, their mid range packs lots of punchs, their low end is a superb good deal..

waiting for it to be fix, now using my old 4 years old china dual sim (never go to repair) and my lovely 6 months old nexus s..
well, at least my 5800 deliver what it promise, excellent music audio quality, that's it...

You better be factual in posting comments. Now your credibility is quashed. N70 was released 2005, not 2000 or 2001. Be factual and accurate, ok?
its best and wise phone
it has cop. multimedia function
really its best..............
saryu, 05 Aug 2011lol. i never usually troll... but GSMarena sure waste their time reviewing this phone... nokia... moreThere's still a lot of people going "OMG, China brand, horror", esp Asian region, for obvious reasons. Plus many have had bad experiences with China brands, in a variety of product line.
Good for you that you take care of your phone well. Mine didnt last one year, so China, Taiwan, Korea or any phone with plastic hardware is out.
People who are unhappy with what the good folks at GSMArena are reviewing should start their own reviewing site and see how well they do.
