Please check the photos before buying The listing is for phone a, charger case and battery only ((other accessories not included )) Review: First I do like the Phone - I am reviewing my original review here; First I do like the Phone. It is new and looks and feels good in the hand. My one problem with it is that the phone was advertised and had a written description, plus a photo of it, showing a QWERTY keypad. The one I received had an AZERTY keypad. Maybe not a deal breaker for some, but when I contacted the seller I was told that they just sold the phones and that the keypad was not their concern. Surely this is false and misleading advertising. Also the phone was originally locked to Orange which would lead me to believe that the phone was flashed to unlock it, hence the AZERTY keypad. I would have given it 5 stars, but I have subtracted one for the misleading description, one for the wrong keypad, and one for the unhelpful attitude of this seller. If the attitude of the seller changes I will update this review....ANOTHER UPDATE>>Using this phone now for almost six years now, i have grown used to the keyboard long ago and have to say it is the best phone i have ever owned, and was a great buy. Great signal, battery life and call quality. Now it has finally started to miss calls sometimes but after almost 6 years use i cant complain. An update to this review; The seller has since contacted me, and is trying to get me a C3 Mobile phone with the QWERTY keypad, and I will give him the benefit of the doubt in the meantime, and am adding another star while I am waiting. Review: Acceptable as a text & call phone | incompatible with Mac OS - The phone is solid and still looks nice and shiny after 18 months. The battery life is excellent and doesn't seem to have declined. The battery tops itself up fairly quickly too. The keyboard is comfortable and easy to use - much better than standard mobile keys. Won't sync with Mac OS. Nokia didn't develop cross-platform software and, AFAIK their software will only work with Windows (not sure about Linux). Nokia used to rely on Apple's iSync, which used to work but is now incompatible with Mac OS. Nokia's Discussion forums are full of questions about this but Nokia have left things stagnating and merely recommend using iSync (which is fine if you use Snow Leopard, or older). Bluetooth is a similar story. It used to connect to my iMac but now won't saying 'Service not supported by other device'. USB connection/flash removal only works on my iMac as a Mass Storage. This is the only way that I can transfer photos + music. Contacts & text messages won't sync. The photo quality is quite poor. I've taken some passable pictures on sunny days but in anything less than good conditions people look like they've been caught on a CCTV camera. So with these incompatibilities with Mac OS, it's impossible to sync contacts, text messages, etc. The Wifi won't connect to my wireless router and claims that my security key is wrong. (It's not). The display is quite blocky but easy enough to read. All in all, I have a basic phone (call and text) with a nice keyboard and a good battery. ## Features - Get live Facebook and Twitter on your home screen - Fast and reliable internet connection - Conversational SMS - Full QWERTY keypad - Stylish ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00453MDCQ | | Battery Description | Lithium Ion | | Best Sellers Rank | 183,515 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 6,906 in SIM-Free & Unlocked Mobile Phones | | Brand | Nokia | | Brand Name | Nokia | | CPU model | Snapdragon | | Camera Description | Rear | | Cellular Technology | 2G | | Colour | Grey | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 67 Reviews | | Digital Zoom | 4 x | | Display Type | LCD | | Form Factor | Bar | | Frame Rate | 15 fps | | GPS Geotagging Functionality | False | | Human Interface Types | Keyboard, Keypad | | Item Dimensions | 5.8 x 1.4 x 11.5 centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.12 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Nokia | | Maximum Display Resolution | 320 x 240 | | Memory Storage Capacity | 512 MB | | Memory storage capacity | 512 MB | | Model Year | 2010 | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB, Wi-Fi | | Operating System | Windows | | Operating system | Windows | | Optical Sensor Resolution | 5 MP | | Processor Series | Snapdragon | | Product Features | camera, e-mail, keyboard, mp3_ringtones, radio, usb, wap, wifi | | Rear Facing Camera Photo Sensor Resolution | 2 MP | | Resolution | 1280 x 720 | | SIM Card Slot Count | Single SIM | | Screen Size | 2.4 Inches | | Screen size | 2.4 Inches | | Sim Card Size | Standard | | Specific Uses For Product | Casual Photography, Social Media, Messaging, Web Browsing | | Video Capture Resolution | SD | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Wireless Network Technology | GSM | | Wireless Provider | Go Mobile | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nokia - **CPU model:** Snapdragon - **Cellular technology:** 2G - **Connectivity technology:** USB, Wi-Fi - **Memory storage capacity:** 512 MB - **Model name:** C3 - **Operating system:** Windows - **Resolution:** 1280 x 720 - **Screen size:** 2.4 Inches - **Wireless carrier:** Go Mobile ## Images ![C3-00 Sim Free Mobile Phone - Dark Grey - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81U7iKRcHJL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have tmobile sim will it work in the nokia c3 sim free mobile phone regards al** A: I have a Nokia C3 00 which works on the Virgin which uses T Mobile/Orange/EE network.

Tried an LG smart phone but it didn't like to sense my finger swipes and also packed up a week outside it's guarantee. Always had a Nokia dumb-phone prior to the LG so went back to Nokia (C3-00 this time. my Wiafe has the forerunner the Asha 201. It's lasted very well indeed so I decided to get the almost indentical replacement). Always found Nokia battery life to be excellent, and the C3-00 seems to follow the trend. Also speaker-phone volume is good (can hear it ok in a noisy environment). Nice compact size and the querty keypad is good to use. However, beware when handling as it is very smooth with rounded corners, so can easily slip thro' one's fingers. Wanted to get a flip-case for it but unable to locate one on the internet and had to settle for a pouch, which doesn't solve the issue of dropping it when using it out and about. If I marmalized this new phone, I don't think I'd find a better replacement, although there is a similar style Blackberry available (I prefer the Nokia querty pad layout, but personal taste obviously). ## Frequently Bought Together - Nokia C3-00 Sim Free Mobile Phone - Dark Grey - 3 in 1 Nano SIM Card Adapter, SIM Card Adapter Kit, Sim Adapter Set Sim Card Adapter with SIM Ejector Pin Compatible with Mobile Phone - 4 in 1 Nano SIM Adapter (Nano SIM to Micro SIM Card+ Micro SIM to Standard Card + Nano SIM to Standard Card) + Free Universal SIM Card Removal Clip for All Smartphones or Tablets --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/66713446-c3-00-sim-free-mobile-phone-dark-grey](https://www.desertcart.us/products/66713446-c3-00-sim-free-mobile-phone-dark-grey) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
