It's around 15 days today when I bought a new
Nokia C2-03 after watching the add and some reviews.
I went through the specifications given on the official website. so after 15 days, I find that this is the worst phone I ever had. The reasons are here.
Nokia C2-03
1. The Screen:
Though the screen is 240 x320 resolution. It's worst in class. You can find the difference if you use
Opera mini. Most of the time the text get overlapped.
2. The Touch:
One of the most irritating things about this phone. even china phones are better than this third class phone. and you can experience it if you try to scroll any item.
If you try to scroll it down it will do exactly opposite and vice-versa. some time I feel to break it out. This happens again and again.
3. User Interface:
Icons are like old 1990 phones. No good looks.
The worst touch quality adds more problems to the phone interface.
The message always displays the total number of messages in the inbox instead of Unread messages.
There is no option for instant delete of messages.
No option for message filter.
No option for Call filter.
If you want to save a phone number from the call log, you cant edit it before you save.
If you have a contact with 2 or more phone numbers and you call that, and if you want to call the second number of it, you again have to go to the phone book. No option go to the specific contact from the call log.
4. The Media player.
You cant play any video file large than 5 MB smoothly. it will give you a pause after every few seconds. You cant play .amr file smoothly. it also has the same problem.
5. The inbuilt applications:
Nokia Maps: its worst, you cant use it because of the memory low error.
OVI browser: it's better not to say anything about it. It always gives connection error while the Opera mini works great on the same connection.
Nokia life tools: Its paid. who wthe ill use it if you have a net connection?
Communities: same case. worst interface, nonresponsive, worst interface, connection error, low memory error problems.
email: it also always show error in connection problem.
6. Camera:
Its just OK but have more Blue shade in the photos.
7. Dual SIM manager:
You must have to take the sim out if you want to turn it off. you can't switch off the one sim by keeping it inside. either you have to keep active both or turn off both.
8. Bundled earphones are cheap.
9. THE MEMORY PROBLEM:
It has only 10 MB of memory. so what? read now. That is not a user memory free for use. The same 10 MB memory is used for saving contacts, SMS, internal applications if you install and all those things. after use of few days you have to format it, again and again, get few KB of memory for gettia ng new SMS of saving a new contact or even to start Meda ia player or to take a photo. It will ask you 100 's of time to please free some memory to do anything. and then you can't find anything to delete from phone internal memory.
10. THE PHONE-BOOK:
If you want to save entire phone book to a memory card or send it to other phone via Bluetooth to backup, there is no such option. I don't know what Nokia think.
You cant import the
VCF file from memory card if you have it. you cant backup you phone book in VCF format. you have to use the third class backup utility which will again ask for low memory error.
11. The PC suite or OVI suit:
Same case with this software. You cant import your contacts from PC in any format. There is no such option to import CSV file of VCF contact file. you have to go the Nokia way.
