Inside the C6
Under the chassis, the
Nokia C6 can be considered a midrange mobile phone which has parts that can be matched up to the older

A 3.2 inch TFT touch screen is packed in with the C6. It is able to display up to a whopping 16 million colors at a 640 x 360 pixel resolution. It can even handle a widescreen HD display (16:9 aspect ratio). To allow for auto rotation of the display’s orientation, it has an accelerometer sensor included. There is even a proximity sensor so you can utilize the automatic shut off feature.
There is support for 2G GSM (at 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 frequencies) as well as 3G HSDPA (at 850, 900, 1900 and 2100 frequencies). There is also a provision for EDGE, GPRS and Wi-Fi at 802.11 b/g.
