The Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type takes some of the stylings of the Nokia 6700 Classic, so you’ll find a full metal jacket, slim body and a stylish design that just oozes sophistication. However, the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type ups the game by adding a touchscreen display as well as the latest must-have features. Read on to find out the things we love about the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type.
The Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type is part of the consumer focussed C Series of devices, so is aimed at those who want quick access to their social networking apps and friends, as well as the best in call clarity and battery life. On first glance the candybar is reminiscent of the Nokia 670 Classic but the truth is in in the name – Touch and Type, as the 2.4-inch screen is touch-sensitive so you can interact with the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type whichever way you find most appealing.
Nokia X3-02 Touch and Type or Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type – you decide!
The Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type has been in our house since before Christmas and has become the favourite device of my partner, as she likes the size, battery life and all-round functionality it offers. After a chat with her, here are the top five things to love about the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type.
Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type Screen Best of Both Worlds
The Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type manages to mix the best of both worlds by offering a 12-button, four row keypad, so anyone who has grown accustom to firing out texts and messages at super speed can use this. Alternatively, the 2.4-inch screen is touch-sensitive so you can tap right into your favourite apps without having to navigate the buttons. We love this dual-action functionality of the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type that makes life really easy.
Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type Stylish Design
Wow factor, that’s what differentiates the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type from most other devices. The metal jacket, as tough as nails, but slim and stylish, so sleek it slips into any pocket or handbag, is guaranteed to impress when you take it out. This isn’t a big smartphone but an everyday device for those who want a phone as much as a device for staying in touch with family and friends on social network sites.
5-Megapixel Camera on Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type
The Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type comes with a 5-Megapixel, which in and of itself isn’t that out-of-the-ordinary. After all, the Nokia N8 comes with a whopping 12-Megapixel CCD. However, what we love about the camera on the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type is that it’s easy to use and delivers great every day snaps for the casual photo taker.
Wi-Fi on Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type
One of the things that make Nokia a true global brand is that it doesn’t charge a premium for technologies. In fact, Nokia works hard to filter top tech throughout its range. So, you’ll find that Wi-Fi is an integrated feature on the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type while many devices in this price bracket from other vendors will still be offering you merely Bluetooth. Wi-Fi makes it easier to download larger files and to surf the web without impacting on your call tariff – ideal in these cash strapped times.
Lock Button on Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type
Sometimes it’s the small things that appeal and in the case of the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type is the button arrangement that makes this just an easy device to use. The dedicated camera button on the side is pretty much standard these days. However, we really love the Lock button, which is also on the side. Push this and you’ll find you’ve unlocked the device, but only once you’ve pressed the onscreen button. It’s this combination approach that makes it easy to use but also means it won’t fire up the device when tucked away in your pocket.
There we have it, the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type in five things we easily love about his device. We’re sure you’ve got other things you love just as much, so let us know what in the Comments below.
