Nokia has a new budget smartphone!
Like many of its C-series variants, the C12 looks no different at all with the Nordic-style design that comes with Dark Cyan, Charcoal, and Light Mint colorways. The back cover also has a textured finish which Nokia says is made for a better grip.
It uses a 6.3-inch LCD screen with HD+ 1600 x 720 resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, and comes with 2D toughened glass for protection.
Inside, it uses a 1.6GHz UNISOC SC9836A octa-core processor with IMG8322 GPU and is paired with 2GB RAM, 64GB eMMC 5.1 storage, and is expandable via microSD.
The handset is equipped with a removable 3,000mAh capacity and charges using a 5W power adaptor and a micro USB.
On the camera side, the C12 uses a single 8MP rear sensor with LED flash while the front-facing shooter has 5MP.
