“The Nokia C-series is all about introducing consumers to quality smartphones. Nokia C21 Plus has been designed to address consumers’ top pain points in the affordable price tier; battery life, storage capacity of the phone and camera quality. This device comes with a long lasting battery and provides a snappy experience on Android 11 (Go edition™) with a 13MP HDR-powered dual camera. I’m proud to be able to introduce our fans to a smartphone that has not only been designed with style and durability in mind, but that has been built to last and tailored to our customers’ needs.”

Huge battery in a slim design

Delivering on battery life while sporting a sleek look and feel, Nokia C21 Plus comes with two different battery sizes, 4000 mAh and 5050 mAh, which deliver either a two- or three-day battery life depending on size, from a single charge – allowing you to stay connected for longer

Robust and rigorously tested

Following a rigorous manufacturing standard² that is known as one of the toughest in the world, you can rest assured the Nokia C21 Plus build quality will stand the test of time. The body is supported by an inner metal chassis and toughened cover glass – IP52-rated for extra protection from dirt, dust and water droplets, so your daily adventures are not interrupted

Renowned security

Smartphones often store people's most private information, as well as act as a hub for entertainment, banking, and vital communication. Being part of the C-series family, Nokia C21 Plus comes with two years of quarterly security updates as standard to keep everything safe.

For added privacy and convenience, fingerprint and AI face unlock technology ensures you can go about your day worry-free.

A clean OS

Nokia C21 Plus comes with Android 11 (Go edition™), a streamlined version of the Android operating system that facilitates snappy download speeds, without sacrificing the signature all-day battery life. Minimal preloads also ensure there is more space for the apps and content you choose, to help you get the most out of your data without compromising on storage.

Capture life’s best bits

The 13MP dual camera with HDR technology captures memorable moments in stunning detail, whilst different modes like Portrait, Panorama and Beautification assist in creating professional-looking photos you can keep forever.

A stunning 6.5” HD+ display ensures that videos and photos can be viewed in all their glory, thanks to the incredible definition and clarity the screen has to offer.
