Nokia C6 Promo Sale: 60% off on November 13

Listen to article

Not to be out-done, Nokia Philippines also has their own 60% off one-day promo for the new Nokia C6. Guess when? It’s November 13, 2010 at 1 to 3PM. See poster below.

On November 13, 2010 at 1pm to 3pm, participating stores will sell the Nokia C6 at 60% off. That’s from an SRP of Php15,100 down to just Php6,490.

Stores include Nokia Stores in SM Megamall, SM North EDSA, SM Cebu and Gaisano Davo City.

This is obviously a targeted response to the LG Optimus One 50% Promo Sale.

Update: The 60% discount of Php15,100 is actually Php6,040, not the Php6,490 that’s shown on the poster (it’s 57.02% discount). I clarified this with Nokia PR and they said that DTI was the one who approved it and it’s possible that a 12% VAT was applied after the 60% discount. If that’s the case though, it should have been Php6,040 + 12% VAT which is Php6,764.80.

My guess is that Nokia wanted to match the sale price of LG Optimus One at Php6,490. The applied discount on the C6 was actually 57.02% but it would not look good from a marketing perspective so they just rounded it off to 60%.

Since I have no real intention of using the LG as a primary device, considering it’s lack of Flash among other things, I’d rather get this for its resaleability.

I think I’ll get one instead of the Optimus One as my secondary unit. Android na rin kasi Primary ko (SGS).

And besides, I don’t think the resistive screen is a dealbreaker here as it does have a full qwerty keyboard and a d-pad. So one has the option of not using the screen at all. Hehe.

I’ll get this over the LG Optimus if it’s the C6-01. Sadly, based on the pictures, it’s C6-00 :( Panira yung resistive touch screen.

These are for those who can’t get the optimus one (limited units) and still has 6,500 in their pocket… Kind of a smart move… hahaha
