Nokia C3 phone has a laughable scientific calculator and the world can laugh at me.

I was excited when I bought home my new Nokia C3 phone only to discover that
my calculator has a very weak scientific mode calculator built in! (Add a square root function and call a basic calculator a scientific one!)

I browsed the Internet for a more advanced scientific calculator with trig functions but
when I visited the Ovi store, the blasted page at http://store.ovi.com/content/9030?clickSource=publisher+channel told me


Sorry, this item is not available for your country.

For those who have not yet a C3 phone, save your 6K pesos to buy a genuine Iphone or
subscribe to Globe.

I am not enthusiastic anymore about this phone, but I may change my mind if something develops
positively. As I said in our first article, the redeeming value in this phone is its WIFI capability.

Ah, just today I was shocked to see the trig functions in my calc in scientific mode!

The following functions are available:


xy SIN  COS TAN SIN  pi SIN⁻1
COS⁻1 TAN⁻1 LN LOG n!

But where is ex? and the hyperbolic functions? Is it hard to reprogram the calculator to add more functions?

  1. Point to be noted ! I also wondered that why does C3 doesn't have eX in it's scientific calculator. Hope Nokia is working to resolve this problem.

  2. Is this a problem in every Nokia C3 or some tech issue ?
