MORE FUNCTIONAL THAN BLACKBERRY – YET MUCH MORE AFFORDABLE
Looks really cool, I want one… how much is it?
Hmmm.
A timely response from Nokia. If they can get the price right, they will have the market.
Nokia is a listening company therefore, they will maintain the Leadership.
Am interested keep me updated
This Nokia look is great, i’m looking forward to it’s release into the market, weldone Bros.
War of Brands, i can’t wait to see this phone in the market. I won’t have to pay monthly subscription fee to enjoy BB chat. Ope oh!
Well, Nokia is making enough money from the Nigerian market. This looks more to me like a “Nigerian” solution to blackberry..

Maybe in Nigeria, its an answer to blackberry but not worldwide. The blackberry is used as a business tool in most parts of the world except in Naija where its more of a social thing.
Anyway, well done Nokia… this shows they’ve got their ears close to their customers..
Just Cool. Weldone
I love the pink coloured one. I cant wait to get one. I am a NOKIA user, and have chosen not to get a Blackberry. This NOKIA response will help me remain consistent with my NOKIA – the best in mobile phones, etc technology.
Fantastic.Welldone Nokia. Please keep me updated
Really….this is interesting o!
We can’t wait.
What a response from Nokia.
Really looks cute. Pls keep me posted. Will love to have 1. Welldone Deolu.
Looking forward to having one. And pls how much is it?
When is this coming out. I am missing my Nokia since I was forced to migrate to blackberry. It will not be a bad idea to pick the phone up on this blog lol
Pls before saying solution to blackberry, kindly compare the functions; this phone is no where a match for Blackberry phones.

check for yourself nigerians
@Segun,
The real question is, what do Nigerians do on Blackberry? It’s Nokia’s answer to what they think the Nigerian market needs.. but then… let’s see how it does.
Nawao.let us be productive!
If the price is right, BB will suffer a heavy blow in the Nigeria market share. Just if the price is right.
It has been long awaited….we are waiting o!
Great idea, keep it up
Wow! About time too!
BB till i quensh… Yea i can do Nokia but as a second phone. Nothing beats BB for me and my business. Nokia need more than a C3 to change the game
from what i know, BB is a fone designed for business but here in Naija, most of the people using it are fun seekers.. i wld get one if i could though.. but i think am stil good with this nokia BB that am using already… and am so interested in this Nokia C3.. lets see wat happens.. hope u are good ?
so sorry i have not been in touch.. dont have your numbers anymore.. i hope i will be able to visit the office before i go back to my NYSC in JIGAWA
#GodBlessNigeria
This is cool.NOKIA for live.
@ All,
I hear it’s going for about N20,000
this was long overdue.
Dis is a welcome idea. Thx chairman
This information is coming at the right time.Especially now that we are creating a network of like-minded entrepreneurs that are willing to leverage on the telecom industry by generating continuous cash flow using their cell phone.
An avenue where Nigerians can become a super-dealer with a renown GSM operator at a low start up fee. Want more info, email tomiwa@tomiwamlmcoach.com
@Deolu, Pls keep me posted.I may be ordering for some soon.Pardon me for that short marketing.
BB, C3 ????????? Nokia N97 is it for now.
Hmmm,
Even if all Nijas use BB for is social networking, Nokia C3 isn’t likely to beat it – no matter the price. What it will probably do is provide an alternative for people who can’t afford BB. Remember BB has it’s own messaging system….I didn’t see that in the review for the C3 (means it probably doesn’t have that). Also will the C3 be able to provide business solutions like the enterprise email solution that BB supports? No likely!
If Nijas aren’t already making full use of the BB, it means there is greater market for BB in Nija.
But C3 will give many others an alternative. It won’t rival BB…definitely not in the feature set!
it looks good,and i guess since i am a junkie for phones i am willing to take a chance and believe it is as good as a BB
BB is far better than dis Nokia C3,remeber C3 is ordinary java while BB is simbia wit lots of applications.It has more loads 2 compare it wit C3.So dnt even try 2 compare C3 wit BB
