The Nokia C01 Plus was subtly announced — and we kinda get why Nokia didn’t make a lot of fuss releasing this thing.
It looks like the Nokia C01 Plus has the term “Plus” slightly misused. For starters, it doesn’t precede/succeed a vanilla C01 model, nor it has an enormous screen or battery.

In fact, it has a compact 5.45-inch HD+ screen, with the old 18:9 aspect ratio that has a thick top bezel — no notch or punch-hole. There’s a 5-megapixel camera in there — the same sensor found at the back.
Under the hood, it’s powered by a Unisoc SC9863A processor with eight Cortex-A55 efficiency cores. It has a small 3,000mAh battery (like the screen) and lacks a fingerprint scanner. On the upside, it does have a face unlock feature. It also runs on a clean and efficient Android 11 Go Edition operating system.

The Nokia C01 Plus is now up for pre-order in Russia for a price of RUB6,490 (around Php4,300).
