Display
The Sagem MY C5-3 features a CSTN display with a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels, capable of showing 65k colors. While this might not compare to modern smartphone displays, it was sufficient for the phone's primary functions, such as viewing contacts and reading messages. The external black-and-white display, with a resolution of 96 x 64 pixels, provides additional utility by displaying time and call notifications even when the handset is closed.
