Nokia C21 specs and features
The improved 8MP camera with autofocus technology on the Nokia C21 lets users shoot photos in greater detail. Panorama mode allows users to capture expansive landscapes in a single shot. Additionally, the front-facing 5MP camera with flash is ideal for taking selfies day or night.
It is also equipped with a stunning 6.5-inch IPS LCD display with HD+ (720 x 1600 px) resolution and a 20:9 aspect ratio.
The Nokia C21 runs on a stock Android 11 Go Edition with a 28nm-built Unisoc SC9863A chipset (eight Cortex-A55 cores @ 1.6 GHz and a PowerVR GE8322 GPU) that increases efficiency without sacrificing the phone's signature all-day battery life. It packs a 3,000 mAh battery capacity, supporting 5W charging via micro-USB.
For added security and convenience, the Nokia C21's AI-powered face unlock is now supported by a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. The C-phones include two years of regular security updates, so users can rest assured that the Nokia C21 is actively working in the background to keep their data safe.
Moreover, the device's body is made of durable polycarbonate and is supported by a metal chassis and a toughened cover glass. Over 50 tests, ranging from force measurements to a vigorous tumble, are performed on every Nokia phone to ensure hardware durability, and the Nokia C21 is no exception. As a result, the smartphone embodies the long-lasting, Nordic excellence that users have come to expect from HMD Global, allowing users to retain their device for an extended period of time.
Further, the stunning Finnish aesthetic is functional – the back is microtextured, and the sides are curved to ensure a secure grip in style.
