This review is from: Nokia C2-01 Sim Free Mobile Phone 3G – Black (Electronics)
Aesthetics : the phone is actually quite elegant looking except for the cheap-looking plastic back cover. It has a nice solid feel to it and, weight to size that confers quality build. The buttons feel solid, though a little small – if you have big fingers and text a lot, you will not like this phone. The screen though small is excellent; Real jpg pictures show up in great detail and small text is crisp. The phone’s speakerphone works well – it is loud and clear at both ends. The radio is a little disappointing but usable when used with good headphones. Those supplied are rubbish. The camera is almost a waste of time in medium to low light conditions. The 3.2Mp means nothing really. The video fairs a little better. It has voice recognition which almost every time. I use voice recognition with a bluetooth speakerphone (avantalk BTCK-10) which will no doubt save me a few points on my licence.
The operating system is s40 which I find excellent for a non touchscreen device. It presents a multitude of options for you for the various functions you will need at any one time. You can even copy and paste. View texts in conversation mode, do CC BCC messages. I’ve used the internet with opera mini. Opera does a great job but the screen is too small to be a serious surfing tool – emergency use only, same for email. At least they are there and thanks to s40 easy to set up.
Conclusion: If you are looking for a simple elegant phone with bluetooth and a good speaker phone that is easy to use then this is a good choice. Please note there are many more functions to it that I have not listed here.

I really like this phone. I am a bit biased as I do like Nokias in general, but the spec on this phone is just right for me and it does everything I want it to do. The Camera is really clear for a phone and I have bought a data cable so that I can keep the photos on my PC. The media player is good too. I like the menus and the buttons are easy to use. I like the conversation view for texting which I did not have on my old phone.
