Editorial report

Nokia C32 technical sheet

The Nokia C32 suits anyone looking for a basic phone with a large display; the trade-off is low resolution and performance among the weakest of its time. Its 6.5-inch display has a density of 270 ppi, lower than that of most phones launched around the same time, and its 4 GB of RAM is also less than most offered.

This configuration pairs 4 GB of RAM with 64 GB of storage. The Nokia C32 is also sold in 3 GB / 64 GB and 4 GB / 128 GB versions, and storage is expandable. The display is scratch-resistant. The 50 MP camera resolution is typical for its time, but the camera overall is among the weakest; it also has no optical image stabilization.

The 5000 mAh battery capacity is typical, while 10 W charging is slower than on most phones launched around the same time. Overall, design and display, performance, connectivity, and battery all compare worse than most phones from the same period, and its overall standing is among the weakest. With a NeoScore of 3.6, the Nokia C32 is for people who prioritize basic features and accept its limitations in display, performance, and charging.
