  • Design:
    The design of Nokia C3 Touch & Type highly resembles with other Nokia C-series devices & highly with Nokia C6-01. However, C3 Touch & Type is extremely light weight & very much comfortable. A stainless steel finish on the whole device gives an elegant look far better than X3 or T&T. The keys are large & comfortable & side by side the design gives the phone a very much bold & stylish look.

    It has a 2.4 inches large screen giving resolution of 240x320 pixels. The screen have is integrated with a very pretty, bright & detailed. Its viewing angles are also acceptable.

    The device’s form looks like a candy bar combined with numeric pad & a touch screen, all cased in a stainless steel wrapping. Right side there is a volume key & a keypad lock button. And on the top of it, there is a micro USB port, a 3.5mm headphone jack and a charging port. It has a 5MP with auto focus with a single LED flash and a loud speaker. microSD card slot is below the battery.

    The S40 web browser is decidedly average, lagging       every time a page is loading and while the inclusion of a touch screen improves the             experience, we still find Opera Mini to provide a better (free) alternative when it comes to zooming in and out of pages lag free. Neither             browser however offers any kind of Flash support, if that's what you're looking for.

    With all the software you'd expect to see on a modern feature-phone such as a basic, yet comprehensive enough MP3 player, calendar and     organizer tools as well as a Facebook and email client, no software on the Nokia C3 Touch and Type will wow you, however, it shouldn’t             disappoint either. This functionality, coupled with the great connectivity and usable hardware on board, makes the Nokia C3 Touch and Type       one of S40's highest offerings.

    PERFORMANCE:                    There isn't really anything major wrong with the                                                                     Nokia C3 Touch and Type on any front and the phone's performance is no exception. When it comes to call quality when on the Nokia C3 Touch and Type, calls are clear, though max volume isn't as high as we would like it to be. On the other end, there were no issues with quality or volume. Coverage is also on the whole good. 
                                                                As for speed, thanks to the relatively simple interface, there is no lag other than in the web browser. The touch screen is responsive and there                                                   is a degree of polish on the Nokia C3 Touch and Type that we only tend to see in Symbian^3 devices, which is refreshing. 


    Conclusion:

    In all, Nokia X3 Touch & Type is one of the most impressive in its range & Nokia C3 Touch & Type as well. Device having smart connectivity options giving nice flexibility & touch screen adds something great to its user interface. Whereas, camera is sufficient for taking casual snaps & not detailed ones. It is one of the greatest option for those who want both, keypad & touch screen. Moreover if the price range is more to you, Nokia X3 can come to you for rescue having very similar features, without steel casing & flash. Or Nokia C5 which is without touch screen.
