The last days of spring have delighted buyers with the release of a brand new Nokia C5 Endi. The fact that the company has changed its traditions by assigning a new name to the smartphone immediately catches the eye. Strangely, this is the name of another model that was released about 10 years ago. The original Nokia C5 phone is a candy bar with a metal casing and a classic numeric keypad. Its operating system is called Symbian S60. Among other things, the 3.2-megapixel camera stands out, which is very small by modern standards. However, the device was able to connect to 3G networks. Although the general functionality cannot be called a technological breakthrough, nevertheless the model was popular and had its own charisma, and the cost was quite affordable.

So, a descendant of the original is also distinguished by a relatively low price. And it has a certain charm. It is immediately noticeable that the manufacturer focuses not only on the advanced characteristics of its developments, but also follows the "Finnish northern design". Particularly noteworthy is the rear of the case, which distinguishes the unit from others. To be more precise, the unusual design of the main camera block attracts the eye. At the same time, the color of the coating is well chosen.
But, as they say, nothing is perfect. This was expressed quite clearly in the model, since the front side has a rather repulsive appearance. The chin is simply incredibly huge, which significantly spoils the overall perception.Moreover, given the fact that most manufacturers have been experimenting with bezelless smartphones for a long time. Moreover, if you try to figure out why the developers made such a decision, then nothing will be found. There is a feeling that this is completely unconditioned and done out of a sudden whim. Whatever it was, but a huge audience expressed their negative opinion on this matter. This nuance is likely to significantly reduce the popularity of the phone among consumers.
The sizes can be attributed to the average. Men with large palms can easily use the device with just one hand. But for women who cannot boast of such a luxury, this promises to be a problem in some way. The weight of the device is 200 g, which is quite a lot. Therefore, using the device with one hand will not work for a long time. she gets tired quickly enough.
Objectively assessing the overall ease of use of the novelty, one cannot fail to note some difficulties due to the large dimensions or weight data, but in the presence of other, more weighty characteristics that differ in efficiency, this drawback is covered. Thus, purchasing a model can be called a smart decision.
But the display keeps up with the times. Its diagonal is 6.52 inches. There is an HD + resolution and a teardrop notch for the front. Photos and game content will look great on this screen. It will not be a problem to use it to work with business documents. The dimensions allow, the graphics are kept at a decent level, and the brightness can be adjusted as desired. Everything is displayed clearly and clearly. In this regard, the novelty can even compete with a number of more expensive developments of third-party brands.
The announced pictures made it clear that the fingerprint sensor will be located on the back of the case. The solution is standard, so no one will be surprised. Judging by the general characteristics and the manufacturer's statements, its operation will be fast and smooth. So, recognition will take no more than a couple of seconds. Of course, this scanner cannot be compared with the flagship speed, but for a budget option it is very good. In addition, no matter who may say anything, placing the scanner at the back is the most optimal solution. Although most companies have chosen more sophisticated design methods, they are not always justified. Simplicity and efficiency are also observed here. So, looking ahead, it should be said that the model is a strict apparatus without frills, so you won't have to overpay.
The "filling" is the MediaTek Helio P22 processor. As for the memory, it is presented in one version - 3/64 GB. RAM of 3 GB is enough for everyday use for simple tasks. It is difficult to imagine a situation where this value will not be enough. Therefore, the manufacturer did not disappoint here.
But the data storage of the device let down a little. So, if 64 GB is enough for photos and videos, then there may not be enough space for games. However, if used appropriately, this value is sufficient. Therefore, this parameter cannot be attributed to full-fledged disadvantages. The model supports SD cards. So, increasing the amount of memory will not be a problem. Accordingly, worries about lack of space can be dropped.
The battery is standard for similar models - 4000 mAh. The model's battery is ready to withstand fairly long tests. For this price segment, the 4000 mAh figure is a pleasant surprise. Thus, you can enjoy watching videos, playing games, or simply checking social networks for a long time.
The charging process will not take long. It would be more accurate to say that this figure corresponds to the price. Accordingly, you cannot call it amazing, but standard or familiar - quite.
The camera has a resolution of 13 megapixels, there is an additional wide-angle module. This figure cannot be called high, nevertheless the photos and videos are of good quality. Of course, this option is not even worth considering for professional photography, but in most cases this will be enough.
The 8MP front camera isn't particularly impressive either. Nevertheless, this indicator is average for this price category, so there is no need to complain. For a single selfie this figure will be enough, however with a group photo, problems are likely to arise.
Summarizing, it should be said that for those who aim at high-quality photo / video shooting, a smartphone will not work. Therefore, before buying, you should immediately determine the tasks that will be assigned to the product.
According to preliminary information, the device will appear on store shelves on June 5. Many people think that the phone is a kind of continuation of Nokia 3.2. It also positioned itself as a universal budget gadget with a large screen and a sufficiently capacious battery.
Objectively evaluating the presented model, it should be said that it is worthy of users' attention. The low price and attractive characteristics, according to preliminary estimates, will make it one of the most popular among state employees. Even in spite of the incredibly large chin, the novelty has already stocked up with a large number of fans who are eagerly awaiting its appearance on the shelves. Therefore, the purchase of this product will be a reasonable decision for those who are not aimed at interacting with the device at a professional level.
