Editorial report
Nokia C12 2 GB / 64 GB / International technical sheet
The Nokia C12 suits buyers looking for a basic Android phone who value a low weight; its main trade-offs are its battery and camera. This version pairs 2 GB of RAM with 64 GB of storage, and the phone is also sold with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB. Its 64 GB storage is less than most phones of its time offer.
The 6.3-inch IPS LCD display has a 720 × 1600 px resolution and reaches 400 nits. That peak brightness is among the weakest of phones launched around the same time, while its 278 ppi density is typical. At 177.4 g, the C12 is lighter than most phones of its time. The display also has scratch resistance.
Its 8 MP camera resolution is among the lowest of its time, and the f/2.2 aperture is also among the weakest. The 3000 mAh battery and 5 W charging are among the weakest figures of its generation. On the practical side, storage is expandable, and the phone has dual Nano-SIM slots, a 3.5 mm audio jack, and Android 12. The Nokia C12 has an overall NeoScore of 2.9: it is a basic choice for buyers who prioritize a lightweight phone and essential features, and accept modest battery and camera specifications.
