Nokia C2, Another Dual GSM Phone

Although it sits higher up in the C-series, the Nokia C2 still has a low price point, making it the perfect device for developing nations. To find out more about the Nokia C2, join us after the break…
As with the new Nokia C1, the Nokia C2 features dual SIM functionality, meaning you won’t need to have more than one mobile phone. Instead, you’ll be able to send and receive texts and calls from both your home and work numbers, with everything appearing in one location.
Even more impressive, while one SIM card is located under the battery in the standard place, the other SIM card is hot swappable, so you’ll be able to take it out of the Nokia C2 when on the move, and even swap it for another SIM card without having to turn off the handset or take out the battery.
The Nokia C2 will initially go on sale in Kenya, and Nokia has done as much as possible to make the device perfect for the developing world. Despite the low price point – the Nokia C2 is expected to cost just 45 Euros (plus taxes) when it goes on sale – there are loads of applications pre-installed to make the handset as useful as possible.
The Nokia C2 will support Nokia’s Ovi Life service, offering healthcare, agriculture and entertainment advice, and it provides Ovi Mail – bringing email to the mass market in developing worlds.
Nokia has yet to release other specs for the Nokia C2, but in the meantime check out our photo gallery below.

Nokia C1, The First Dual GSM Phone from Nokia

The Nokia C1 is an entry-level device aimed at those on a tight budget. More importantly, it comes with full double SIM functionality – the first ever Nokia handset to do so. Read on to find out what else the Nokia C1 has to offer.
The Nokia C1 has been announced as the first dual-SIM Nokia of its kind and with a starting price of just 30 Euros, this could well be one of the cheapest phones ever
Nokia users have been asking for years when they will be able to get their hands on such a device and now they’ll be able to do so (well, later in the year when it ships). A double SIM device like the Nokia C1 has two SIM card slots but in order to keep costs down, the cards can’t be used at the same time. If you’re looking for a dual-SIM option then check out the Nokia C2.
To switch between SIM cards the user just needs to hold down a key, thereby allowing you to use whichever SIM offers you the best tariff rates in that region.
Following Nokia’s new numbering convention, the Nokia C1 is very much an entry-level phone and comes running the Series 30 OS. The phone itself is a neat little candybar phone with a rounded body that weighs just 73g.
Nokia hasn’t released a full tech spec list for the Nokia C1 but as you’ll see from the images below, it does come with a torch built-in, which will come in handy. The Nokia C1 is set to ship in the third quarter of 2010 in blue, red, light grey and green.
