Nokia X1-01 and Nokia C2-00
Nokia will soon launch new Dual SIM Phones, Nokia X1-01 and Nokia C2-00. These phones offer a Dual SIM experience superior to any other models on the market, remembering the settings for up to five different SIM cards and with no compromise on battery life, music features or messaging. Also a ad on Television appears these days saying Launching Soon..!!
Both devices are no-nonsense, inexpensive phones that offer an exceptionally long battery life. Thats up to 43 days standby time and 13 hours talk time on the Nokia X1-01 or 36 hours if you choose to play music solidly. The Nokia C2-00 offers a still-gigantic 19.2 days standby time, with 5.75 hours talk time. Both devices are aimed at developing markets where, often, a steady and reliable power supply isnt yet a reality. The daily top-up that many smartphone users in other regions have become used to isnt always an option in some parts of the world.

The Nokia X1-01 is a music machine, as evidenced by the massive speaker on the back, which can deliver up to 106 phon. A phon (and youre forgiven for not knowing we didnt until we looked it up on Wikipedia) is a unit of perceived loudness. If you have 106 of them in a mobile device, its loud enough to serve as a makeshift home-entertainment system. The speaker has also been specially tuned so that theres little distortion, even when turned up to eleven. The Nokia X1-01 has in fact got the loudest and clearest speaker Nokia has ever produced!
The device offers support for up to 16GB of storage using the SD card slot enough for thousands of songs on board. It offers an FM radio, of course, and also an MP3 music player with dedicated music keys and one-click creation of a favourite playlist. The 3.5mm AV jack can be used to plug the output into headphones or even louder speakers. The Nokia X1-01 also has a flashlight on the top. Thats a useful feature for anyone, but especially so if you cant rely on the power supply or where civic lighting doesnt exist.
In addition to remembering the settings for up to five separate SIM cards, the Nokia X1-01 also lets you give each SIM its own logo, music signature or ringtone.
Nokia C2-00

The Nokia C2-00 offers a number of additional features. The main one is the way the SIM cards are arranged, offering Easy Swap, a feature thats only on offer from Nokia. One SIM card is stored internally, like a traditional phone. The second card is easily accessible through a slot in the side so you dont have to open or even switch the phone off to change SIMs. This is especially useful for people who want to use more than two SIMs, such as if the phone was to be shared between different members of a family, a group of friends or various community members, for example.
While the Nokia X1-01 runs the Series 30 operating system, the Nokia C2-00 runs Series 40, which offers some key advantages in the form of internet access, a web browser and Nokia Messaging for email. The Nokia C2-00 also sports a VGA camera and allows for MMS messaging. Theres support for up to 32GB of storage using an SD card, allowing users to carry thousands of photos, videos and music files.
In selected markets, the two phones will be offered with Ovi Life Tools: bringing news, market prices, entertainment, health advice and education services to people who are likely to find it difficult to get these things in other ways.
The Nokia X1-01 and Nokia C2-00 will cost around Rs. 2200 & Rs. 3000 respectively.
