The Nokia C01 Plus has a 5.45-inch HD+ (1440 x 720) display with thick bezels at the bottom and top of the screen. The top bezel is home to a 5MP camera and an LED flash.

Covered in blue or purple plastic with a textured finish for a better grip and a splash proof design, the Nokia CO1 Plus has a UNISOC SC9863a chipset under the hood along with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of storage that can be expanded via a MicroSD card slot (128GB max.). There is a 3000mAh removable battery and it charges at 5W via a MicroUSB port. The phone also has a 5MP rear camera along with an LED flash on the back.

HMD Global has added dual nano-SIM slots, an audio jack, Bluetooth 4.2, Wi-Fi, and support for LTE. It ships the device with Android 11 Go and includes a charger and silicone case in the box. The Nokia C01 Plus weighs 157 grams and measures 148 x 71.8 x 9.3 millimeters which makes it heavier and thicker than the Nokia C1 Plus.

The Nokia C01 Plus is priced at ₽6,490 (~$90) and is already available for pre-order in Russia on the Nokia online store.
