Nokia C30 and 6310 go official alongside a bunch of true wireless earbuds

2021-11-05

Aside from the XR20, HMD Global has announced another two phones, the 6310 and the C30. The former is, as the name implies, yet another reinterpretation of a classic Nokia phone from years past, while the C30 is an interesting Android smartphone with a big battery and low price.

Nokia C30

The C-series is Nokia"s new entry-level family of devices, and as such you shouldn"t expect record-breaking specs on offer here. In fact, the Nokia C30 is the new "king" of the C-series, with the biggest screen and largest battery capacity at 6.82" and 6,000 mAh, respectively.

The screen has HD+ resolution with a teardrop-shaped notch and a significant bottom bezel that"s big enough to house the Nokia logo. On the rear, there"s a 13 MP main camera with flash as well as a 2 MP depth sensor, while for selfies you get a 5 MP snapper.

The C30 is powered by the Unisoc SC9863A chipset, which has an octa-core Cortex-A55 CPU clocked at up to 1.6 GHz. There will be three RAM/storage combos: 2/32GB, 3/32GB, and 3/64GB. The phone runs Android 11 Go Edition, Google"s trimmed-down OS version for dirt-cheap devices. Speaking of pricing, the Nokia C30 will be available starting at €99.

It has 4G support (no 5G here), and 10W charging. A fingerprint sensor is on the rear, and there"s support for camera-based face unlock too. The device has a 3.5mm headphone jack and a microUSB charging port. It will receive security updates for two years (no mention of any Android version updates though).

Nokia 6310

The new 6310 has a design reminiscent of the original, but with a larger screen and bigger buttons, both things that HMD thinks will aid in usability. The display is a 2.8" curved panel with QVGA resolution.
