Nokia C20 Plus

Nokia C20 Plus was unveiled in China by HMD Global, the company that owns the right to manufacture and sell Nokia phones. It’s an improved version of the Nokia C20, which was released in April of this year. In comparison to the previous model, the current offering is an Android Go smartphone with twin cameras, a better battery, and more RAM. Nokia C20 Plus is equipped with an octa-core Unisoc processor with a 1.20Hz clock speed. Here’s all you need to know about it before it enters the Indian smartphone market.

Nokia C20 Plus Price in India 

In China, the lone variant with 3GB RAM and 32GB internal storage has been priced at CNY 699, which translates into Rs 8000. However, there is no news yet for its Indian availability and pricing, which will be updated once it comes to the Indian smartphone market. The colour options include ocean Blue and graphite black colour options. 

The front side of the Nokia C20 Plus has got a waterdrop notch at the top centre, which carries the selfie camera with a face unlock feature for biometric authentication. The rear panel of the Nokia C20 Plus houses a dual-camera setup in a circular module at the top centre including LED flash beside the camera module. It is 9.35mm thick and weighs 204.7 grams, which means it’s a bulky device.

Nokia C20 Plus has a 6.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels and a 20:9 aspect ratio. With a pixel density of 270ppi, the device’s bezel-less display offers stunning graphics. 

Under the hood, the Nokia C20 Plus comes powered by the UNISOC SC 9863A chipset with Mali-G52 MC3 GPU. The smartphone packs with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage, which is further expandable upto 256GB via MicroSD slot. As for the software, the handset runs on the Android 11 GO edition. The connectivity options on the smartphone include 4G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2 GPS, FM radio and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

In terms of cameras, Nokia C20 Plus has an 8MP primary camera and a 2-megapixel secondary depth camera on the back. Autofocus is available on the back camera. It has a 5-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies. The complete camera arrangement includes capabilities like Digital Zoom, LED Flash, HDR mode, Face Detection, ISO Control, and Exposure Compensation. 

There is a large 4950 mAh battery tickling inside, for maintaining the power requirements of the Nokia C20 Plus. The battery is sufficient to last for the full day. For refilling the battery, there is support for 10W charging. At least there should have been 18W fast charging and a USB 2.0 charging port adds more to the miseries. The refilling time is going to be more here. 

When compared with the Nokia C20, the Nokia C20 Plus features only two different specs and those are improved chipset and extra RAM. But considering the overall competition, these two specs don’t make the Nokia C20 Plus compete in the cut-throat market when there are highly attractive smartphones available in the market at the same price point from different brands. So, we don’t recommend this device at all. You may look for something else.
