Nokia C02 silently debuts with Android 12 (Go edition) and entry-level specs

Ahead of MWC Barcelona, HMD announced a new entry-level device dubbed Nokia C02. The phone features a modest spec sheet and some interesting features like a removable battery, IP52 rating and a headphone jack.

Nokia C02 features a 5.45-inch LCD with FWVGA+ resolution an 18:9 aspect ratio. There’s a 2 MP front facing camera and a single 5 MP rear shooter on the back which sits above the LED flash. The phone features a polycarbonate frame and back with a nano-texture that pops off to reveal the replaceable 3,000 mAh battery as well as the dual SIM slots and microSD card slot. The C02 charges over the dated microUSB connector at up to 5W speeds.

The chipset department is handled by an unnamed quad-core SoC with a clock speed of 1.4GHz. It is joined by 2GB RAM and 32GB eMMC 5.1 storage. The software side is covered by Android 12 (Go edition) and you get two years of security updates.
