FAQ
Can I root the Nokia C1?
Yes. After enabling OEM Unlocking and unlocking the bootloader, root is Magisk via patched boot image (fastboot). The unlock notes on this page describe the exact Nokia procedure.
Does the Nokia C1 support custom recovery (TWRP)?
That depends on community support for this exact model — verify a build exists for its codename before flashing anything. TWRP is not required for root: Magisk installs by flashing a patched boot image via fastboot.
Will root the Nokia C1 void my warranty?
Nokia will generally treat a rooted Nokia C1 as outside warranty while it is modified. Restoring full stock firmware before a service visit usually restores normal treatment in practice, and consumer law in some regions (such as the EU) may still cover defects unrelated to root.

It runs Android 9.0 Pie (Go edition). The specifications table on this page lists the full software details.
