Design
Today I am with the Nokia C21 plus. We are going to talk about the box containing some of the features and whether should you buy this phone or not. Now talking about the device, it comes with a very used display with a 6.5-inch HD plus display. It also has a 3.5 mm porton the top for putting your headphones on the bottom. You are getting a noise cancellation mic micro USB charging port and it comes with a very huge battery. Which is a 5050 mAh battery. If you talk about the stem slot. It comes with a dual sim with expandable memory storage. The expandable memory can be up to 256 GB. The power button and the volume rocker keys are on the backside. There is a fingerprint sensor and also a dual camera setup with led flash. There are also speakers at the back end.
11 Go edition
Now coming to the specification, it comes with the 6.5-inch sd plus display with 1600 into 720p pixels. It has a 4GB ram 64 GB storage model which variant we got. It comes with the android 11 go edition.
Cameras
It has a 13 plus 2-megapixel back camera setup in the front. It has a 5-megapixel camera. This is what you are getting if you talk about the other variant. It will be coming with 3GB of ram and 32 GB of internal storage. The model that we got was 4GB of ram and 64GB of internal storage.
Box content
Talk about the box content, we are getting the charger inside the box. There is no back cover. No screen guard is coming with the box and It has the charging adapter 10 watt charging adapter and we are also getting a sim card ejector tool. This is what we are getting inside the box. There is no earphone or headphones in the box. We talk about the device color. It will be coming in two colors dark sand and warm gray. What we got is the dark side and there is also a warm gray color. If we talk about the android version, it is running on the android 11 go edition. There is the dark mode option, you can switch to the dark mode directly. I do prefer dark mode over the normal theme and if you talk about more things. It doesn't have any refresh rate option. If you are stuck with 60 hertz refresh it.
System
If you talk about the system. It is running on the android 11 go edition. This is a lighter version of the edition. You will get two years of security updates from the company. So that is a good thing. If you go to the android version. It is running on android 11.
Fingerprint
There is the fingerprint and the face unlock. I have already done the setup. The fingerprint sensor works very smoothly and it is quick and fast enough to unlock the smartphone. The face unlock is a little bit slower. It needs a proper amount of light to unlock the device but overall the experience is good enough. You are getting the face to unlock and fingerprint sensor and now coming to the other parts talking about the storage. It comes with 64GB of internal storage and 4GB of ram. If you talk about some gesture features, it offers you some. It includes the swipe fingerprint of the notification. Which is useful and the notification center comes down. So this is a very quick and easy method and also there is some more gesture feature including the switch to camera option. If you tap the power button twice. It will switch to the camera directly. Which is an easy function and triggers the camera easily. It can be changed into the rear camera or the front camera currently. I have switched from the front to the rear camera. Now the rear camera will open by default the other features other gestures. What you are getting is from preventing ringing. You can move it to vibrate or mute it if you want. There is also system navigation if you want a gesture feature or you want three-button navigation.

The three buttons are at the bottom but I don't like the three buttons and want to explore more of the device and if you talk about the feature. It also has a mute on pickup. It also gives you time to reject the call you can also do the power off. These are the features that you are getting in the gesture. Now coming to the OS. It is a clean OS you are not getting any bloatware. You talk about network connectivity. It supports 4g but something strange. Everything is a lighter version especially, the google apps. Now coming to the gaming section. You can't expect a high-end graphics game currently. You can't install heavy games due to the shortage of storage. You have very less memory. It comes with 64GB of memory and you can't install those games if you want to play lighter games like subway support temple run or car racing. These games can be easily played if you want to watch content videos. Content consumption then it is also good because the resolution is quite high. It comes with 1600 into 720p pixels processor. What we are getting is a 1.6 gigahertz octa-core processor. It is by Ubisoft model name is sc9863a
The Camera setting
Talking about the camera, It comes with a13 megapixel, the primary sensor at the back, and a 2-megapixel depth camera at the back the front. You are getting a 5-megapixel camera. if you go to the settings and check the settings. It has normal settings. What we usually get includes the shutter sound the grid the location tag even the data storage can be preferred and changed with an expandable memory with that and talking about the HDR. It comes with the HDR. You can turn it on automatically or you can always on and there is a smile detection. You talk about the video resolution, the front camera, and the rear camera both offers full HD 100p and 720p camera. If you take in the good sunlight the pictures come out good and it is an average camera. It is not too good. Now talking about the weight of the device. It weighs around 191 grams which is not too much heavy and it is a wider device.
