Loving my Pink Baby: Nokia C3


Pink! Sooo Pink!

Its not everyday that I buy something for vanity's sake. But when I found out the Nokia C3 in hot, hot pink hit Manila's shores, I simply had to get one... especially on their one-day sale last July 31, for only P6,290.00 (originally priced at P7,290.00).

Here's the overview of the features from the Nokia Website

My parents and I went to SM Fairview at 7:00PM. Good thing that the Hot Pink is still available because a friend of mine tried buying at SM North EDSA and was told that it was out of stock already. My Mom wanted the Gold, but it was out of stock at SM Fairview, so she got the Slate Gray instead.

Testing the Facebook

For Facebook and Twitter addicts like me, screen feeds are readily available at the home screen. So if you have a pending request from your friends, or you need to update a status or two, its just as easy as a touch of a button. (But of course, you need to connect to your provider or wi-fi first!)

Now I'm getting to know my new baby. And everytime I use it, I just fall in love some more. I must say that its worth the wait :D And Nokia C3 is beautiful, inside and out. :)

    Hello Can you help me I have recently bought my nokia c3 but is there any way of moving the facebook app to the homescreen instead of having to go through communities and also is there a way of being able to get notified when and if you have new messages from facebook friends/users when back to the home screen while keeping me logged online all the time.

    Please reply.
    Regards,
    Ruthie
