The C20 comes featuring a 6.5″ HD+ V-notch display, with a 5MP front camera, but with flash. The rear camera is also 5MP and has its own flash for night photos or torchlight use. The SoC of choice is Unisoc SC9863a with 8 cores clocked at up to 1.6GHz. The devices does come with 1GB or 2GB of RAM, and 16GB or 32GB of internal storage expandable with MicroSD card. It is important to mention that both C-series phone run Android 11 GO Edition and will receive two years of quarterly security updates.
For autonomy, Nokia Mobile packed a removable 3000mAh battery in the C20, with 5W charging speed. The phone comes with Bluetooth 4.2, WiFi 4, and doesn’t feature NFC. A 3.5mm headphone jack is present, but instead of USB Type C, the C20 uses the legacy microUSB port. The sales package should include a charger, and case and headset depending on the market.
Just as the X10 and G10 are similar to the X20 and G20, so is the Nokia C10 similar to the C20. The SoC is downgraded to SC7331e, with a quad-core CPU clocked at 1.3GHz. Rest of the specs and the packaging details appear to be the same. One more difference is Nokia Mobile pointing out 2D Panda Glass on the C10’s screen.
Nokia C10 supports 2G and 3G, so there is no 4G for the C10, according to the datasheets, but “LTE” is mentioned for the C20, so if you are in a country that might soon decommission 3G networks, the C20 is more future-proof.
Nokia C20 should hit the market during this month in Sand and Dark Blue color options at a global average price of 89 euro (105 USD, 7860 INR). The C10 will come in June in Light Purple and Gray options at a starting global average price of 75 euro (89USD, 6620INR).
