Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type

Nokia's C3-01 Touch & Type has a clumsy name, but it's a darn useful cell phone. It's a standard candy bar style handset with a numeric keypad, except that it also has a large (for its size) touch screen. At just $179 - inexpensive for an unlocked device - the Nokia C3-01 offers plenty of power for world travelers, or anyone who wants a svelte device that works with AT&T, T-Mobile, or prepaid SIM cards. That makes it our new Editors' Choice for unlocked cell phones. The Nokia C3-01 Touch & Type looks and feels classy. It measures 4.4 by 1.9 by 0.4 inches (HWD) and weighs 3.5 ounces. The aluminum housing and tapered battery cover make the C3-01 comfortable to hold for long periods. My test model was silver; a charcoal gray version is also available. The 2.4-inch, plastic resistive touch screen sports 240-by-320-pixel resolution. Unlike the larger Nokia C6 ($249, 2.5 stars), the C3's screen was accurate and responsive to my touches. The numeric keypad features large but heavily recessed keys. Dialing numbers felt a bit stiff, but I got used to it quickly. The Nokia C3-01 is a quad-band EDGE (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) and quad-band HSDPA 10.2 (850/900/1900/2100) device with 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi.

Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type review

If you were a fan of Nokia's top-notch basic handsets during the 90s, you'll be pleased to see it launch the C3-01 Touch and Type. While it looks like a standard candybar device, it actually has a touch-screen instead of your average screen. And this results in one of the most efficient handsets we're seen from the Finnish phone maker in some time. Nokia has done well with the hardware. The phone is lightweight but manages not to seem cheap. It's slim, with an aluminium chassis and good-sized keys, along with that capacitive display. There is no D-pad of course, which helps the minimalist design – instead navigation comes courtesy of the 2.4in display. The combination of keypad and touch-screen works well together – it makes sense to select icons on the display with a finger and then use hard keys for calls and texts. All the standard functions work well and you'll find you only need to make the minimum number of clicks to call and text. It's nice to see a 3.5mm audio jack on a basic handset, but if you want to store music you'll need to buy yourself a microSD card, as the onboard memory is a measly 30MB. You can add up to 32GB more with a microSD card, and the slot has been well placed so that you don't have to take out the battery to swap cards.

Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type review

The Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type is a candybar handset with a small screen and a simple numeric keypad. Like its near-namesake the BlackBerry-alike C3-00, the C3-01 Touch and Type is designed to be a low cost, easy to use messaging fan's handset. It will set you back £150 SIM free, so it isn't exactly going to break the bank, but for that kind of expense you do want a bit more than a pocket-money toy. In many ways, it's reminiscent of the Nokia 6700 Classic, which we thought was, well, a classic handset from Nokia. No touchscreen there, but it had the sane metallic candybar design and screamed premium.As its name suggests, the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type brings touchscreen sensitivity to this most basic of handset formats. If you want simple messaging, a little Facebook and Twitter action and a handset that neither weighs you down nor requires a degree in User-Interface-Onomics to get to grips with, then the Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type sounds on paper as though it could be your best pal.But that ain't necessarily so, as we'll see later. First, though, let's look at the physical design, which is really good.
