'Smart' entry-level handsets

MANILA, Philippines - Nokia’s new C2-02, Nokia C2-03 and Nokia C2-06 all offer browsing, maps and messaging capabilities — plus choices of touch screen or keypad interfaces as well as dual or single SIM options.

The C2-03 comes with Nokia’s unique dual SIM capabilities. These include features that allow the user to personalize up to five SIM cards with a dedicated look and feel, and an Easy Swap option that lets users change SIM cards in seconds without having to turn off the phone or remove the battery.

The Nokia C2-02 is a single SIM version with a similar feature set, as well as push messaging options and a broad range of IM providers included, while the Nokia C2-06 comes in a range of fresh colors with a clean, smooth finish.

The phones all ship with new Nokia Maps for Series 40, where local maps and places of interest are pre-installed on the phone. This lets users view maps and plan routes when the phone is on offline mode, thus saving on the costs of downloading maps over the mobile network.

All three phones also deliver a great Internet browsing experience through the data compression technology of the Nokia Browser, which keeps the cost of surfing low and speeds up page downloads — benefiting both consumers and operators.

The browser loads with a localized start page, giving the user instant access to the most relevant content, and is tabbed to give easy access to favorite or previously viewed information.

The three phones, which are expected to roll out this quarter, also pack a stereo FM radio, media player and memory support that can be expanded to a whopping 32GB, letting users store thousands of photos, videos and songs.
