Nokia C3 or Indian-made Chinese Handsets?

Though the specs can’t be compared to Chinese Redmi 9A or Realme C11, the Nokia C3 is a decent one. The UNISOC SC9863A chipset is definitely new to the Indian customers but it offers a similar performance provided by Qualcomm Snapdragon 429 SoC.

If you don’t bother about Qualcomm or UNISOC, then Nokia C3 definitely performs. Above all, you can’t go wrong with the brand Nokia and its 1-year replacement guarantee
