HMD Global has announced the launch of the Nokia C3 in China. The entry-level device is available in for pre-order in China for CNY 699 (EUR 85/US$ 100) and will arrive in Nordic Blue and Sans Gold colours. Sales is scheduled to commence on August 13 and those who pre-order early can get it for a discount price of CNY 669 (EUR 80/US$ 95).
The Nokia C3 has a polycarbonate body build based around a 5.99-inch HD+ display, rear fingerprint scanner, 5MP selfie camera and 8MP rear camera with LED flash. It is powered by an unnamed octa-core processor clocked at 1.6GHz (sources say it is likely the Unisoc SC9863 SoC) and comes pre-loaded with Android 10. There is a customisable X-Press key to reach favourite apps and functions.
