Nokia C32 Unveiled
The Nokia C32 is the first C-series phone to pack a 50MP camera, and it’s also built to a high-for-the-class standard with glass on both the front and back. The C32 and C22 are IP52 rated for dust and water spray protection.
On the front, both the Nokia C32 and C22 have a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD with slightly curved 2.5D glass. Another shared trait is the 5,000mAh battery with 10W charging and the claim of up to three days of endurance. Nokia says the battery life is helped by AI-powered battery-saving management.
The Nokia C32 has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, a 50MP main camera with Night Mode, Portrait Mode and Auto HDR, as well as a 2MP dedicated macro. On the front, there’s an 8MP selfie shooter that supports face unlock even with a mask.
The Nokia C32 is powered by a Unisoc SC9863A SoC with 3GB or 4GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB storage. The latter can be expanded via microSD cards.
The Nokia C32 runs Android 13 and Nokia has pledged two years of quarterly security updates.
