Nokia is good at making simple candybar phones and the C5 is a good example. The handset is made from a combination of plastic and aluminium, which feels pretty light in the hands. Our review unit came in the white version with a metallic silver band that runs along the sides of the device.

Excellent keypad Good set of connectivity features Free real-time navigation with Ovi Maps Good battery life Snappy performance

A few minor design flaws Doesn't support Wi-Fi Camera doesn't have autofocus

The Nokia C5 offers a simple candybar design and good range of features without being too costly. It won't blow you away, but it shouldn't disappoint either.

Although threatened by Apple, Blackberry and Android in the high-end smartphone market, Nokia still has a firm grip on the budget market. The C5 is a simple handset that ticks all the boxes, but is it worth the asking price?

I bought this Nokia because I mainly needed a phone to call only, so not a smart phone. But I was very disappointed. I remember Nokia was a big manufacturer for this kind of phones. Instead I found this extensive phone very buggy. Sometimes the phone crashes and it restart automatically.

Light; cool design

Expensive; poor software; buggy

If you want a t9 button handset then you won't go wrong with a Nokia c5. It's built to old nokia robust build quality and call quality is clear in both directions. Battery life is excellent between 3 and 5 days. If smart phones are not for you then get one of these c5s.

After a big success of Nokia C5 in the market, Nokia company has introduced advance version of C5 phone which is called Nokia C5 5MP . This compact and stylish looking handset has stainless steel cover on its back.
