Nokia C5-03 unboxing

The Nokia C5-03 is the latest Symbian S60 5th Edition smartphone which was released in December, 2010. It is a good upgrade for those who uses and likes his/her Nokia 5230 or Nokia X6.

It comes with a nice rounded design and inherited the Lock button from the Nokia X3-02. You have to press it and then push the screen to activate the phone. This method is quicker than the standard lock method.

The Nokia C5-03 is a quite different handset to the original C5, and the first difference is its 3.2-inch touchscreen. The device is also packed with 5MP camera with resolution of 2592х1944 pixels.

The C5-03 looks better in comparison with the Nokia 5800, but he Nokia C5-03 has a slightly smaller and definitely more rounded feel to it. The buttons were changed too and you can find three function keys located on the same slim rocker bar.

The handset supports GPS functionality, and there are also Ovi Maps pre-installed which will help you to use the Nokia C5-03 as a replacement for your stand-alone sat-nav.

The Nokia C5-03 is priced £189 including VAT without any contract.
