Quite high radiation:

According to the data we gathered, the C5-04 features a radiation level rating of 1.42 w/Kg. Since the maximum allowed SAR rating is 1.60, that is high. Of course, it is under the safety limit, but keep in mind that there are Nokia phones with a smaller SAR rating.

Smaller touch screen:

You better have tiny fingers, since the C5-04's touch screen has a smaller display surface to press on than many other smartphones. According to our calculations, it has a 4.38 square inch-display while

Lower video frames per second rate:

The Nokia C5-04 includes a video recorder but its maximum video recording rate of 15 frames per second (fps) is kind of low. In comparison, cinemas display frames at a rate of 24 frames per second while most TV sets display more than 30 fps.

Pros:

Spectacular talk time:

Nokia says that the Nokia C5-04 provides a talk time of 690 minutes. That's clearly above the average.

At only 100 grams, the Nokia C5-04 weighs less than the latest iPhone.

Weighs less than the iPhone 4S:

Of course, it doesn't offer as many features as the latest iPhone (the "4S"), but since it only weighs 100 grams, it is more lightweight than the iPhone 4S (which weighs in at 140 grams).

Basic camera but decent options:

Though the 2 -megapixel camera is only basic, it at least offer a few advanced control options, such as: Geo-tagging, Image Editor, Self-timer, White Balance, Colour tone (Normal, Sepia, Black & white, Vivid, Negative), Scene (Automatic, Low light mode, Night)

Resistive touch screen is a plus:

We like that the C5-04's 640 x 360 touch screen is a resistive rather than a capacitive one, because various experts (and the Wikipedia page) think resistive models are a better choice than capactive ones.

In-box accessories:

It includes these accessories: Nokia Stereo Headset WH-102, Nokia Connectivity Cable CA-101D. This might prove convenient.

Eco features:

It claims the following green characteristics: Free Of PVC, High Efficiency Charger, Recyclable, Recycled Material, Unplug Charger Reminder, Free of nickel on the product surface, Free of brominated and chlorinated compounds, Free of antimony trioxide, Eco zone, Recyclable packaging. It's up to you but, if green choices matter to you, this could be a plus.
