The Nokia C22 64GB is Nokia's 2023 smartphone featuring a 6.5 inches, 102.0 cm2 (~81.6% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Unisoc SC9863A (28 nm) chipset. It comes with a 5000 mAh battery. At AED 299 in the UAE and ₹7,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Nokia C22 64GB excels with its 5000mAh battery delivering multi-day use on light tasks, a 6.5-inch IPS LCD with 720x1600 resolution offering decent visibility outdoors, and Android 13 Go Edition ensuring smooth operation on the Unisoc SC9863A chipset. It targets users needing a backup phone for calls, WhatsApp, and basic browsing—especially seniors, students with limited data budgets, or rural users with unreliable charging access. Its weakness is the 8MP main camera, which struggles in low light and produces soft, noisy images, making it unfit for any photography beyond casual snaps. In UAE at AED 299, it’s competitive because no other 5000mAh LTE phone under AED 350 offers Android 13 Go. In India at ₹7999, it’s overpriced—real alternatives like the Redmi 12C offer better cameras and faster charging at similar cost. Skip if you need NFC, 5G, or decent low-light photos.
