Reviews for the Nokia C32

88% Nokia C32 smartphone review: Decent budget device
Source: Root Nation English EN→zh-CN
The Nokia C32 is indeed a solid smartphone for its price range. It boasts an original design, quality build, acceptable performance, excellent battery life, and an affordable price. While the cameras are not the most advanced, they can’t be labeled as poor. One drawback could be the performance in more demanding games, which may not be as strong as in pricier models. Overall, considering its price, the Nokia C32 is a worthwhile smartphone that deserves attention.

The Nokia C32 has almost everything you really need. As a spare work phone, cloud gaming device, or the first smartphone for a kid or elderly family member, it’s more than enough, and a real sign of how quickly yesterday’s flagship features can trickle down in cost. It may be slow at times, but its only real point of contention is its choice of brittle materials.

60% Nokia C32 review: Out of its depth
Source: Expert Reviews English EN→zh-CN
The Nokia C32 is stuck between a rock and a hard place, with better options at every turn, many of which come from Nokia’s own stable. Those looking for a capable handset priced as low as possible need look no further than the Nokia C21 Plus, while everyone else would be better served by forking out a little extra for the Nokia G22. If the latter’s repairable design doesn’t entice you, the best bet in this price range is the Motorola Moto G13. Performance is superior to the Nokia C32 across the board, the display is more colour-accurate and it refreshes at a faster 90Hz to boot. The Nokia C32 is competent enough, but even at its discounted price you can do better elsewhere.

80% An iPhone 14 user, I tried out the Nokia C32 as a secondary phone: Here’s my experience
Source: The Indian Express English EN→zh-CN
I would be lying if I say I don’t miss the bells and whistles of the iPhone 14 whenever I use the Nokia C32. But as I made it clear in the beginning, I never saw the C32 as a replacement for my iPhone. I was very clear in my mind that the C32 will be a backup phone in case of an emergency. This doesn‘t make me believe less in budget Android smartphones. If I want to rate the Nokia C32 purely from a value point, I think the device appeals for two reasons: it looks good and feels nice in the hand and the massive battery it comes with. But the C32 does come with some trade-offs like lower quality display and a weak processor.

The search Nokia C32search C32 is decent smartphone if you are looking to do very basic tasks on your device but if you are someone who cannot handle the drops in performance or someone who wants to watch a lot of OTT content, then the search C32’s competition is clearly a better offering.

60% Nokia C32 review
Source: Tech Advisor English EN→zh-CN
I can forgive a lot of the Nokia C32’s shortcomings because of its price. When you think of who this phone is aimed at – a first phone, perhaps, or one for people who aren’t glued to their handset all day (they are out there) and want one that’s going to be available for calls, photos and messaging – it begins to make a lot of sense. No point buying an iPhone 14 Pro Max or Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra if that’s all it’s going to be used for. So while the C32 might be slow, underpowered, have no NFC, 5G or the latest Wi-Fi capability, and has a low screen resolution, these things probably don’t matter to the people who are going to buy it. I wouldn’t be surprised if, at £129, it shifts a few units. After all, it’s nicely made, and fulfills most of the functions of a modern smartphone.

Nokia C32 Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News English EN→zh-CN
The Nokia C32 is undoubtedly a great entry-level phone that offers everything a user need to connect to the internet and enjoy some level of media. However, the phone doesn’t provide much when it comes to performance, camera aspect, and display. But there’s no doubt that the clean user interface and long-lasting battery life are the key selling point of this 4G affordable phone. If you are looking for a simple phone for calling, social media usage, and other daily tasks, then you should consider the Nokia C32. But if you can increase your budget a little bit more, we recommend going with the Nokia G22 instead. If you want something value for money in the same price range, then check out the Infinix Note 11 as it delivers decent perks with better camera quality. Finally, decide the best after comparing other alternative options.

Nokia C22 and C32 hands-on review: New budget phones unveiled at MWC 2023
Source: Expert Reviews English EN→zh-CN
The screen is also exactly the same as the C22, but the design is different with a two-tone glass back and expanded colour options: Charcoal, Autumn Green and Beach Pink. The phone is also IP52 rated, with a 5,000mAh battery and a 2MP macro camera. The main camera is a 50MP unit, however, so expect better snaps on the C32. Both the C22 and C32 are pencilled in for a Spring release date. Stay tuned for our full review soon.
