Still in demand. Now the company has been bought out by the Chinese corporation HMD Global, but they have not stopped producing simple devices, even though these are no longer the same universal, “indestructible” products. Among them, we have selected five interesting models that have something to offer different categories of users.

Unfortunately, most Nokia push-button mobile phones have a number of inconveniences, for example, the inability to add several numbers to one contact and other minor problems.

• screen: 2.4 inches, 320 × 240 pixels;
• number of SIM cards: two;
• dimensions: 51 × 115.6 × 12.8 mm;
• camera: 2 MP;
• : yes (up to 32 GB);
• battery: 1200 mAh;
• other: flashlight, Bluetooth 3.0.

This is a relaunch of the legendary Nokia 3310, released in 2000, also known as the “nut cracker”, “unkillable mobile phone” and “Chuck Norris phone”.

The new device has a more elegant body, made of durable glossy plastic, as well as a 2.4-inch color display. The gadget fits comfortably in your hand, the cover is removable. It is very light and pleasant to the touch; reaching one of the 16 mechanical protruding buttons is not difficult. There is no Wi-Fi in the 3310; only 2G networks are supported. However, there is a familiar set of pre-installed applications, represented by the updated Snake, browser, calendar, FM radio, etc. The phone book supports up to 2000 numbers.

There is one radio module, and the speakers are separate. The multimedia one is installed on the rear panel, and the auditory one is installed above the display. The quality of both is quite tolerable, but worse than that of inexpensive smartphones.

pros

• network reception;
• support for convenient T9 dialing system;
• reliability of the design and resistance to falls;
• convenience;
• autonomy up to a week.

Minuses

• overcharge;
• poor photographic capabilities;
• no wifi.

Nokia 130

• number of SIM cards: two;
• dimensions: 48.4 × 111.5 × 14.2 mm;
• camera: 0.3 MP;
• memory card: yes (up to 32 GB);
• battery: 1020 mAh;
• other: FM radio, flashlight, Bluetooth 3.0.

Nokia 130 is a successful, very cheap successor to the famous Nokia mobile phones. It is suitable for those who need a reliable device with a minimum package of functions. It has a durable polycarbonate frame, but it is lightweight, compact, unpretentious and easily fits in your pocket.

This is an excellent push-button dialer and message dialer. It catches the net well, but the intensity of the vibration response and the volume of the speakers could be better. The keyboard is standard mechanical, presses firmly and pleasantly, and supports input from T9. It also boasts a color display, MP3 and radio support. In actual operation, the charge will last for about five days. The device has a photo module, but it is so bad that it would be better not to have it.

pros

• low cost;
• there is a recording of conversations;
• strong but lightweight body;
• ease of use;
• balanced functionality considering the price.

Minuses

• few pre-installed games;
• The camera in the device is clearly superfluous and increases its price.

Nokia 106 (2018)

• screen: 1.8 inches, 160 × 120 pixels;
• number of SIM cards: one/two;
• dimensions: 49.5 × 111.15 × 14.4 mm;
• no camera;
• memory card: no;
• battery: 800 mAh;
• other: flashlight.

The new Nokia 106 push-button phone is a real “granny phone”, devoid of additional options for which they could ask for an additional payment. It is as simple as possible - the best choice if you need a device solely for communication, and not for listening to music or taking at least some photos. This is the optimal solution as a second “mobile phone”.

The body is polycarbonate, collapsible and durable. It is quite thick, but light. There are no complaints about voice transmission or network reception. The “screen” is small, with a comfortable keyboard underneath it. Nokia 106 is a simplified version of the 130 model; it does not have Bluetooth, cameras, Internet access or a slot for a flash drive. With an 800 mAh battery, the mobile device lasts up to 15 hours of talk time, which is equivalent to three to four days of use at medium intensity.

pros

• lack of unnecessary functions;
• strength and resistance to damage;
• very low price.

Minuses

• speaker is both multimedia and voice;
• I would like the vibration power and volume of the multimedia speaker to be higher.

Nokia 8110 4G

• screen: 2.45 inches, 320 × 240 pixels;
• number of SIM cards: two;
• dimensions: 49.3 × 133.45 × 14.9 mm;
• camera: 2 MP;
• memory card: no;
• battery: 1500 mAh;
• other: flashlight, 4G support, FM radio, Bluetooth 4.1.

Conceptual from a design point of view, the device is a reincarnation of the legendary Nokia 8110 4G 2018 from the 1999 film “The Matrix”. The device received a noticeable curvature along the entire length of the polycarbonate body, for which it was nicknamed “banana”. There is also a protective panel on the front that smoothly slides down to cover the keyboard.

The phone is controlled by the Kai OS operating system (perhaps the best solution for cellular devices), and supports GPS, Wi-Fi and applications. The firmware is evolving, so developers must correct bugs and inconveniences over time. Good synchronization of the phone book is available (several numbers in one contact), 4 GB of built-in and 512 MB of RAM. There are no complaints about the sound from the speakers. The body is glossy, scratches easily, and sometimes there may be gaps between the panels. This is not the most reliable device on the list, but it is worth buying for its excellent and unique appearance.

pros

• extravagant design;
• good matrix;
• support for the necessary wireless communication modules;
• the ability to use your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot;
• speakers.

Minuses

• may spontaneously open in a pocket;
• unnecessary 2 MP camera;
• there are operating system flaws;
• presence of uninstallable software;
• cheap plastic on the front;
• autonomy no more than three days.

Nokia 216

Minuses

• difficulty synchronizing with a computer;
• many unnecessary applications;
• plastic is scratched;
• poor photographic capabilities;
• For some people the buttons may not be very convenient.

The history of mobile communications began with push-button phones. They were in great demand for one and a half to two decades. And only in the late 2000s they began to be replaced by smartphones with touch screens. But the “button” has not completely disappeared yet. There are a large number of people in the world who do not want to switch to touch controls. It is for them that today’s rating was created, which includes the best phones with.

It is important!

In our material we will talk about simple mobile phones that operate using proprietary firmware. In a separate selection you can get acquainted with. They are equipped with a QWERTY keyboard and use Android as the operating system. As for phones, you can only install Java applications on them, and T9 mode is used for entering text. Also on our website you can read about where this topic is discussed in a little more detail. We cannot help but note the fact that in our selection we will talk about a wide variety of mobile phones. We have mentioned both the cheapest devices, usually used as spares, and more expensive models with slightly wider functionality. We have not forgotten the topic of being able to withstand even the most severe operating conditions.

Fly FF190

• Display: 1.77 inches, 160 × 128 pixels
• Battery capacity: 1000 mAh
• Weight: 71 g

Price: from 570 rubles.

One of the cheapest phones on the market has a lot of unnecessary bells and whistles and the only real plus. This model is a typical budget mobile phone, which is designed to simply make calls. However, for its money, the FF190 offers buyers a 0.1 MP camera with video and photo recording (it’s unnecessary to talk about quality with this resolution), Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP support (improved audio transmission), playback of not only music, but also videos in 3GP, MP4, AVI.

All these features, with the possible exception of improved sound via Bluetooth, are clearly unnecessary. There is hardly a person who wants to shoot something with a virtually useless camera or watch a video on a 1.7-inch screen. On the plus side, for its price, the model has excellent autonomy and has a flashlight.

Advantages:

Flaws:

• There is a lot of unnecessary filling that made the model “heavier” - 71 grams, this is not a lot, but compared to devices of similar price and size there is a difference.

BQ 2442 One L+

• Display: 2.4 inches, 320 × 240 pixels
• Battery capacity: 600 mAh
• Weight: 75 g

Price: from 640 rubles.

After its return to the market, the company began making not only interesting smartphones, but also controversial push-button phones. Ambiguous because there are many models, they are practically no different from each other or from competitors, but what is most unpleasant is that they are expensive. Of course, the price is affected by the name of the company and, in fairness, the quality of Nokia is the best of all that, in principle, can be bought in Russia among push-button devices. Nevertheless, from time to time there are curious specimens in the mobile phones of the Finnish company.

The 8110 4G model, as the name implies, received not just Internet support, but even at 4G speed. It may seem that why is this necessary, because the filling is probably sad, everything will slow down. But no, the brand’s engineers understood what they were doing and installed a fairly serious chipset by the standards of push-button phones - Qualcomm MSM8905 with 2 cores of 1.1 MHz. It was supplemented with 512 MB of RAM, which is quite good compared to the traditional 32 MB of all other representatives of the rating, and gave the buyer a 4 GB drive.

The surprises don't end there. The phone has Wi-Fi 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.1. As a cherry on the cake, there is a 2 MP camera. Naturally, in 2019 this sounds funny, but again, it’s a push-button phone. Most representatives of the segment do not have this either. Do not forget that the model is a slider, that is, the buttons are hidden behind a retractable cover. There are two colors - yellow and black. The phone supports 2 SIM. It comes with headphones, which is a nice touch. The battery lasts for a couple of days of operation.

This device was created for those buyers who, for certain reasons, need a push-button device, but at the same time want to not only make calls, but take pictures of something and go online.

Advantages:

• Wi-Fi and 4G support.
• Interesting body design in bright designs.
• Great display.
• Powerful hardware for its segment.
• Not a bad camera by the standards of feature phones.
• 4 GB of internal memory.

Flaws:

• — the smartphone operating system used is quite crude and there are a lot of lags; the problem can be fixed with updates.

Philips Xenium E181

• Display:
• Memory size: 32 MB
• Battery capacity: 3100 mAh
• Weight: 123 g

Price: from 3,390 rub.

Another phone from China Electronics Corporation with . If we consider new push-button phones, the Xenium E181 certainly stands out. While other devices last only one or two days, like modern smartphones, the CEC product lasts four to five days. And if you leave it alone, without using it at all, the charge will run out only after five months! Interestingly, a method of transferring energy to other gadgets is implemented here. It turns out that this model can even be used as a portable battery. And here everything is in order with the characteristics. The device received FM radio and two slots for SIM cards. The device has little built-in memory, but no one will stop you from uploading songs to. On top of that, a mobile phone doesn’t even cost record-breaking amounts of money!

Advantages

• Very capacious battery.
• Not a bad display.
• Not very heavy.
• Two slots for SIM cards.
• Possibility of installing a microSD card.

Flaws

• Very slow Internet.
• There is very little built-in memory.
• Terrible camera.
• The functionality could be wider.

LG G360

• Display: 3 inches, TFT, 240 x 320 pixels
• Memory size: 20 MB
• Battery capacity: 950 mAh
• Weight: 133 g

Price: from 4,000 rub.

This one is very beautiful, albeit very simple to make. It offers basic functionality - it doesn't even have access to the World Wide Web. On one part of the device there is a fairly large screen. However, its resolution is far from ideal - pixelation immediately catches the eye. Against this background, the lack of MP3 support would not be surprising. But it is here, songs must be loaded onto a memory card (cards up to 16 GB are supported). The mobile phone has a 1.3 megapixel camera. By 2017 standards, this is ridiculous. But push-button mobile phones rarely get a better module. But the manufacturer could install a more capacious battery - the battery available here is enough for one or two days of battery life.

Advantages

• Two slots for SIM cards.
• MicroSD memory card supported.
• Availability of FM radio.
• Loud speaker.
• Relatively light weight.

Flaws

• Very high cost.
• No internet access.
• Bad camera.
• Low display resolution.

Removed from selection

Nokia 130

• Display: 1.8 inches, 128 × 160 pixels
• Battery capacity: 1020 mAh
• Weight: 68 g

Price: from 1,890 rub.

The simplest mobile phone from Nokia. It differs from its competitors in its minimal weight - the “tube” is not felt at all in your pocket. The mobile phone has very modest dimensions. However, this did not stop the manufacturer from additionally creating a dual-SIM version of the phone. There is also a slot for a microSD card. The user cannot do without a memory card, since there is critically little free space for MP3 music and pictures.

The screen installed here displays 65 thousand colors - this is a typical indicator for a simple mobile phone. Surprisingly, the creators have introduced Bluetooth 3.0 support into this device, which allows you to comfortably use a wireless headset. There is also an FM radio. The capacious battery provides up to 13 hours of battery life in talk mode, which can be called a very good indicator. But there is no Internet access here. This means that you will not be able to install additional Java applications or games.

Advantages

• Easy to learn;
• The speakerphone works well;
• MP3 format supported;
• Minimum weight;
• Low cost;
• Capacious contact book;
• A simple stereo headset included;
• Long-lasting operation on a single charge;
• There is a dual-SIM option;
• Bluetooth 3.0 supported.

Flaws

• Your memory is very small;
• You cannot install Java applications;
• Tiny screen;
• The quiet voice of the interlocutor.

Where can I buy:, GranPlus, and some online stores

Nokia 3310 (2017)

• Display: 2.4 inches, 240 × 320 pixels
• Memory size: 16 MB
• Battery capacity: 1200 mAh
• Weight: 79.6 g

Price: from 3,990 rub.

The reincarnation of Nokia 3310 is a very controversial mobile phone. In fact, the device became popular only because of its name. Yes, this is a very thin mobile phone, and the information on its screen is easy to read even on a bright sunny day. But otherwise its use raises big questions. There is a camera here, but its two-megapixel resolution does not evoke any joyful feelings. In theory, you can install additional Java applications here, but their list is very limited. But what upsets consumers most is the cost. A device with such functionality should cost half as much!

Of course, the device also has positive qualities. For example, Bluetooth 3.0 will provide connection to a wireless headset. A capacious battery should provide several days of operation on a single charge. Well, the memory card slot will help you download a huge amount of MP3 music. There is also an FM radio here.

Advantages

• Very small thickness;
• Not a bad LCD display;
• Support MP3 and FM radio;
• Built-in Bluetooth 3.0 technology;
• Long work on one charge;
• The kit includes a headset;
• You can insert a memory card.

Flaws

• Worthless camera;
• Terribly high cost;
• The ability to install applications is very limited;
• Quiet speaker;
• Strongly simplified firmware.

MAXVI C11

• Display: 2.4 inches, TFT, 240 × 320 pixels
• Memory size: 32 MB
• Battery capacity: 800 mAh
• Weight: 80 g

Price: from 1,070 rub.

This dual-SIM mobile phone exists in at least three versions. One is painted green, the other is orange, the third is cherry. They are no longer different from each other. MAXVI C11 is one of those mobile phones that for some reason has a built-in camera. It has a resolution of 1.3 megapixels, which is only acceptable if you are creating a photo for a contact book. Interestingly, the phone has access to the global web, but only through a 2G signal. There is also a built-in slot for a memory card onto which you can put your favorite MP3 songs.

Overall, the MAXVI C11 is a very good phone, which costs less than one and a half thousand rubles. For that kind of money, it is forgiven for the low battery capacity, the minimum amount of internal memory, and other shortcomings. But having a flashlight is a plus for him!

Advantages

• The set includes headphones;
• You can use a memory card;
• Built-in flashlight;
• Bright colors of the case;
• MP3 format supported;
• You can listen to FM radio;
• Very low cost.

Flaws

• Your memory is very small;
• Minimum firmware functionality;
• No T9 typing support;
• It is impossible to connect a headset (headphones only);
• A USB cable may not be included in the package.

Micromax X2400

• Display: 2.4 inches, TFT, 240 x 320 pixels
• Memory size: 75 Kb
• Battery capacity: 2800 mAh
• Weight: 89 g

Price: 1990 rub.

This is a very lightweight mobile phone from an Indian manufacturer. We can say that this device is completely devoid of permanent memory. But in reality this is not a problem, since there is support for memory cards up to . The main feature of the device can be considered its attractive design and ease of use. Buyers note that the phone book is best organized here. Otherwise, you shouldn’t expect anything special from such a cheap device. The camera here is very simple, there is not much point in using it. There is not even Wi-Fi here, so you can forget about accessing the global web. You can only be glad that the X2400 does not lack a Bluetooth module, so no one will forbid you to use a wireless headset. It is also worth noting the very capacious battery, which provides three to four days of battery life.

Advantages

• Minimum weight;
• Capacious battery;
• Not a bad screen;
• Two SIM card slots;
• There is a slot for a memory card;
• There is FM radio;
• Bluetooth 3.0 support.

Flaws

• Terrible camera;
• No 3G or Wi-Fi support;
• Minimum amount of your memory.

Samsung Metro B350E

• Display: 2.4 inches, TFT, 240 x 320 pixels
• Memory size: 32 MB
• Battery capacity: 1200 mAh
• Weight: 89 g

Price: 3990 rub.

Contrary to what many people think, the South Korean company still produces push-button mobile phones in addition to smartphones. Often they don't stand out as anything special. These are simply very light devices used for making calls. The Samsung Metro B350E is exactly such a device. Of the wireless modules, only Bluetooth 2.1 is present here, providing communication with the headset. You can forget about accessing the Internet, since there is not even 3G support here. But the mobile phone turned out to be very cheap! Oddly enough, the South Koreans did not skimp on the camera. Its resolution was 2 megapixels. This is quite enough for photographing bus schedules or something similar. You can even take a photo of a friend to place his image in the phone book.

Advantages

• There is FM radio;
• Memory cards up to 16 GB are supported;
• Minimum weight;
• Relatively good display;
• Two slots for SIM cards.

Flaws

• Weak battery;
• No internet access;
• Quite a high cost.

BQ BQM-2408 Mexico

• Display: 2.4 inches, TFT 240 x 320 pixels
• Memory size: 32 MB
• Battery capacity: 800 mAh
• Weight: 78 g

Price: 1890 rub.

This is one of the lightest mobile phones currently on the market. If you want to get your hands on a device that you barely feel in your hand, then the BQ BQM-2408 Mexico is the best choice. But at the same time, you will have to pay for the fact that the mobile phone will require recharging almost every day. Another important feature is the ability to install four SIM cards here. This allows you to use the services of all major Russian telecom operators! Otherwise, the characteristics of the device are somewhat sad. In particular, there is a camera here, but its resolution does not exceed 0.3 megapixels - it’s surprising that such modules are still produced. It is proposed to access the Internet via EDGE, and this indicates a low data transfer speed.

Advantages

• Minimum weight;
• Relatively good screen;
• Memory cards up to 32 GB are supported;
• There is FM radio;
• Four slots for SIM cards.

Flaws

• The amount of built-in memory is not very large;
• Minimum battery life;
• There is no T9 typing mode;
• The phone book is poorly implemented.

BQ BQM-2000 Baden - Baden

• Display: 2 inches, TFT, 176 x 220 pixels
• Memory size: 32 MB
• Battery capacity: 800 mAh
• Weight: 84 g

Price: 2690 rub.

People should like this folding phone the most. This is evidenced at least by the presence of a red SOS button on the case. The device also sounds very loud - it’s quite difficult not to hear the call. The phone also speaks about its purpose by the lack of Internet access. If you want to upload some pictures to the BQ BQM-2000 Baden - Baden, you will have to use a computer. Additionally, the mobile phone has a couple of customizable buttons at its disposal. There is also an auxiliary display. But it only shows the date, time, battery level and signal reception level. If you want to see the name of the caller, you will have to open the phone - only an icon indicating an incoming call is displayed on the auxiliary screen.

Advantages

• Clamshell form factor;
• Two screens;
• Several additional keys;
• There is a slot for a memory card;
• Availability of SOS button;
• Minimum weight.

Flaws

• One SIM card slot;
• Very poor functionality;
• The external screen does not show the subscriber number.

RugGear RG128 Mariner

• Display: 2.2 inches, TFT, 176 x 220 pixels
• Memory size: 65 KB
• Battery capacity: 1400 mAh
• Weight: 127 g

Price: 4490 rub.

If you are interested in rugged devices, be sure to look for the RG128 Mariner at your nearest store. This is not a smartphone, so the specs won't impress you. It uses a 2.2-inch screen with a very modest resolution, and the amount of memory makes you immediately stock up on a microSD card. But all this fades into the background when you see the delivery package. There is a wired headset here, which literally saves you in some situations. There will also be two batteries in the box. One is 1400 mAh - it is heavier, the other is 650 mAh - with it the mobile phone stays afloat when it gets into water. In theory, this phone should be able to withstand a variety of abuses. But the low cost makes itself felt. Some elements here are still very vulnerable. For example, the creators did not cover the screen with Gorilla Glass, and therefore soon enough you will find scratches on it. Well, as for the technical characteristics, they are typical for a budget push-button phone.

Advantages

• Protection from water, dust and shock;
• Quite light weight;
• Presence of FM radio;
• Bright colors;
• Two SIM card slots;
• Availability of a slot for a memory card;
• Two batteries included.

Flaws

• Slow Internet connection;
• Minimum screen resolution;
• Terrible camera;
• There is practically no personal memory.

It would seem that in the age of smartphones that can do everything, a push-button telephone is archaic. However, there are cases when a push-button telephone with a powerful battery will be indispensable. For example, if you need an emergency phone that you can only use when leaving home. Or if you need to choose a phone for your child so that he always stays in touch with you. Or if you're just looking for a cheap phone that you can take on work trips, festivals and parties without worrying about losing it.

10. BlackBerry Q10

Cost - 19,900 rubles.

This device is BlackBerry's flagship phone with a keypad. It also has touch controls, but looks exactly like a traditional BlackBerry phone.

The Q10 is relatively small and squat, giving a feeling of power rather than elegance. And this makes sense, since your BlackBerry will most likely be a reliable workhorse. It has a 3.1-inch touchscreen and inside the phone is a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor with a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor and 2 GB of RAM. You get 16GB of flash storage, plus the option to add another 32GB with a MicroSD card.

Pros:

• Capacious and at the same time removable battery of 2100 mAh.
• Great sound.
• High quality build. It is not recommended to drop it, but if you do drop it, then most likely nothing will be done to the phone.
• There is NFC, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0.
• Both 3G and 4G LTE are supported.
• Both the 8-megapixel rear and 5-megapixel front cameras take good pictures. Of course, you can't compare with them. However, the BlackBerry Q10 is a high-quality feature phone with a good camera.

Minuses:

• Small app store. The problem is solved by installing the Android Market.
• In 4G mode, the phone gets very hot and can discharge in a few hours.

9. Nokia 8110 4G

The average price is 5,500 rubles (sales start in May).

“Banana” is the first thing that comes to mind when you look at the 2018 Nokia feature phone. A lot is already known about the new product, which has not yet gone on sale in Russian stores. It comes in black and yellow, and its design plays not only on the nostalgia of the Nokia 8110, but also on the feelings of Matrix fans. After all, it was this Nokia flip phone that Morpheus sent Neo for communication in the first part of the film.

The KaiOS operating system is simple and accessible, even a child can understand it. Applications are currently limited to Facebook, Snake and a few games. But in the future their number will increase.

The battery is removable and very long-lasting for such a phone - 1500 mAh. The phone screen has a diagonal of 2.45 inches and a resolution of 320x240. Inside the device there is a dual-core Qualcomm MSM8905 chip, 1100 MHz, 4 GB of internal memory and 512 MB of RAM.

Pros:

• Stunning curved slider design.
• It is possible to connect 3G and 4G. This means that, unlike the Nokia 3310, the 8110 4G will work almost everywhere.
• Removable battery providing up to 25 days of battery life.
• There are Wi-Fi 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.1 interfaces.

Minuses:

• Only one rear camera 2 MP.
• No memory card slot.

8. teXet TM-401

Can be purchased for 1,350 rubles.

An ideal clamshell device for a gift for an elderly person or a junior high school student. It does not have options such as Wi-Fi and Internet access. But there is an 800 mAh battery, a bright 2.4-inch screen and even a slot for a memory card up to 8 GB.

Pros:

• Ergonomic design.
• Large convenient buttons.
• There is FM radio.
• It is possible to use 2 SIM cards.
• Loud noise.

Minuses:

• There is no camera, even the poorest one.
• The battery takes a long time to charge.
• If you do not read the incoming SMS message, the screen will light up and thereby “eat” the battery.

7.Micromax X940

Costs, on average, 1,690 rubles.

Pleasant to the touch, functional and at the same time inexpensive push-button telephone. It can last more than 2.5 weeks in standby mode and is a good choice if the phone needs to remember a lot of contacts and loud sound so as not to miss an incoming call.

Micromax X940 has a bright 2.8-inch screen, is equipped with a MediaTek MT6261 processor, and 32 MB of internal and RAM.

Pros:

• Excellent 3000 mAh removable battery.
• The speaker is loud. Very loud, which will be appreciated by older and hard of hearing people.
• Phone book for 300 numbers.
• The display shows a large clock.
• The buttons are comfortable and large.
• There is an FM radio, but it doesn't work without headphones.
• You can connect this phone to other devices to charge them or as an external storage device.
• There is a slot for memory expansion.

Minuses:

• In the phone book, you can only record one contact per number.
• There is a camera, but with a resolution of 0.3 MP, which means you can’t expect clear and bright pictures from it.
• You cannot set your own ringtones for SMS.

6. Fly FF249

Can be purchased for 1,790 rubles.

This is a great feature phone for those who don't like flip phones. It even has a very basic MP3 player, but we don't recommend trying to use it given its primitive nature. Focus on the fact that this device is extremely easy to use, and the battery will last a very, very long time.

The phone's specifications are quite modest: a single-core MediaTek MT6261 chip, 8 GB of flash memory expandable by another 8 GB. And 32 MB of memory for programs. The pride of the Fly FF249 is its 4000 mAh battery. Because of this, it is quite thick, but it fits comfortably in the hand.

• Availability of FM radio.
• Phone book for 300 names.

Minuses:

Summing up

If you choose between the push-button phones listed in our review, then for an elderly relative we would choose:

• teXet TM-401;
• LG G360;
• Philips Xenium E331;
• Micromax X940.

A suitable gift for a son or daughter would be:

• Fly FF249;
• Nokia 3310 3G;
• Nokia 105;
• BQ BQ-3201 Option.

On a work trip, I would take a BlackBerry Q10 or Nokia 3310 3G.

But for the sake of the soul and nostalgia, we would only buy the Nokia 8110 4G. However, it is also excellent for everyday tasks such as calls and SMS.

Conclusion

People have developed a love for push-button phones over decades, and it’s quite difficult to get out of the habit of this type of device. This is especially true for older people, who generally find it difficult to get used to something new. For some categories of people, push-button phones are simply more convenient than touch phones. What is more important to them is ease of use, practicality of the device and its low cost with excellent communication quality. And if, to these significant advantages, greater autonomy is added, this device will be simply ideal for such people. I hope that with this rating we have helped you choose the best push-button phone of 2017-2018.

Nokia mobile phones became one of the first devices available to Russians. Over time, the market evolved, and the brand failed to adapt to changing trends. This led to a decline in its popularity among buyers. However, the current situation did not suit HMD Global and as a result the company decided to revive the Nokia brand. Partly, she succeeded - in three years, the brand’s assortment has been replenished with many interesting devices, including push-button ones. In order to show you the most successful of them, we have prepared a rating that contains the best Nokia push-button phones.

#10 – Nokia 105 (2017)

Price: 1,242 rubles

Nokia 105 (2017) is a compact device that is guaranteed to appeal to everyone who is looking for a regular dialer. The dimensions of the solution are 49.5×112×14.4 mm, weight – 73 grams. Due to this, it is very convenient to use and also to carry in your pants pocket.

The model can also boast of the quality of mobile communication reception - users in the reviews note that the signal is available not only in the city, but also outside it.

The model has a bright flashlight in its arsenal, which is guaranteed to save you in moments of a sudden power outage. The only drawback of the solution is the lack of backlighting of the navigation key.

#9 – Nokia 106 (2019)

Price: 1,267 rubles

Our rating of the best Nokia feature phones continues with a model called Nokia 106 (2019). The list of its advantages should definitely include separate keys, which allow even those with large fingers to operate the device comfortably.

The phone is also not bad in terms of autonomy - a week of working away from a power outlet in call and SMS mode will not be a problem for the 800 mAh battery.

Unlike many cheap phones, the 106th model is equipped with a uniform keyboard backlight, as well as a T9 dictionary, which makes typing SMS much easier. Many people will also like the alarm clock, which goes off even when the phone is turned off. The disadvantages include a quiet speaker.

#8 – Nokia 130

Price: 1,900 rubles

Nokia 130 is a popular model, which in red color looks much more interesting than most representatives of the push-button segment. It also has another advantage - a loud speaker with which you will hear an incoming call, even while on a busy street.

The model is equipped with a mini-jack, using which you can listen to FM radio. If you prefer your own playlists, you can download them to a microSD flash drive with a capacity of up to 32 GB. Fortunately, there is a slot for it.

The Nokia 130 is also supported by the fact that it can work with two SIM cards at the same time. It has been repeatedly noted in reviews that the modules work properly in both slots and the amount of signal loss is minimal. The disadvantages include an absolutely useless camera.

No. 7 – Nokia 210

Price: 2,362 rubles

The 2.4-inch display of the Nokia 210 has a good amount of brightness and fairly wide viewing angles, which is a real rarity among devices of this class.

Another feature of the model is the ability to link two numbers to a contact. It is noteworthy that you can use the Nokia 210 even in the dark - this is facilitated by the bright and uniform backlighting of the keyboard.

The model's additional equipment is quite good - in addition to a flashlight, the user is offered the ability to write 20 notes of 100 characters each, a stopwatch, a timer, and an alarm clock. Let's note the generosity of the developer - the owner receives headphones along with the phone. The disadvantages include the dampness of the interface.

No. 6 – Nokia 130 Dual sim (2017)

Price: 1,860 rubles

If you are looking for an inexpensive but high-quality dialer, pay attention to the Nokia 130 Dual sim (2017). The model has a very clear earpiece that accurately conveys the speech of the interlocutor.

The microphone deserves only praise, thanks to which you will definitely not be asked again during a conversation. The model also has T9, which makes it easier for the user to type messages.

The main feature of the device, according to the developers, is the ability to work with two SIM cards simultaneously. This is no coincidence - the 130 copes with this task perfectly well - you are guaranteed high-quality communication and no interruptions. The disadvantages include the unpleasant limitation on the number of characters in the contact name.

No. 5 – Nokia 150 Dual sim

Price: 2,590 rubles

Nokia 150 Dual Sim has rubberized separate buttons. Pressing them requires some effort and is accompanied by a tactile response. This reduces the chance that you will enter the wrong number by mistake when dialing a number.

The solution is also worth praising for its autonomy - a 1020 mAh battery can easily live for a week in autonomous mode. Many people will also like the convenient clock that is displayed on the screen. Interestingly, they are shown even when the display is locked.

The 150th model is also equipped with a convenient black list, which will be useful to anyone who is tired of receiving advertising SMS or waking up to calls from various call centers. But the lack of screen brightness adjustment and the 13-character limit for a contact name are frustrating.

No. 4 – Nokia 216 Dual Sim

Price: 2,990 rubles

Our rating of the best Nokia feature phones continues with a model called Nokia 216 Dual Sim. It boasts very rich functionality: a voice recorder, an organizer, an alarm clock, a flashlight, a stopwatch, a timer - you will find all this in the phone's arsenal.

Another point that I would like to note is that the 1020 mAh battery can last about a week on a single charge.

If you are tired of modern shovels, then you will definitely like this model. The thing is that due to its compact dimensions (50.2x118x13.5 mm), the phone fits into any pocket without any problems. The weaknesses of the solution include the fact that it does not allow the user to set their own ringtone.

No. 3 – Nokia 3310 Dual Sim (2017)

Price: 3,310 rubles

The main advantage of Nokia 3310 is its design. The phone is designed in such a style that it looks more like a Tamagotchi or some other toy than a mobile device.

This will definitely appeal to those who are tired of boring push-button phones. But the presence of a separate conversational speaker will be appreciated by everyone without exception. Moreover, it clearly and efficiently conveys the speech of the interlocutor.

Continuing the list of advantages of the model, we will mention a full-fledged T9, which allows the owner to add his own words to the dictionary, as well as a bright flashlight. But many users did not like the organization of the menu, which they noted in their reviews.

No. 2 – Nokia 230 Dual Sim

Price: 4,240 rubles

One of the most significant advantages of the Nokia 230 Dual Sim over its competitors is its 2.8-inch screen. The thing is that it is quite bright, and the information on it is visible due to the large font.

There are no complaints about the model and the build quality - the design does not crack or creak when pressed. I am pleased with the volume reserve of the speaker. Thanks to it, you will definitely not miss an incoming call.

Many users will also be pleased with its autonomy - if you pick up the phone only for calls and SMS, then the 1200 mAh battery will last you for 8-10 days. The model has two disadvantages. The first is the high price relative to other push-button phones. The second is ugly software, which received a barrage of criticism from users.

No. 1 – Nokia 8110 4G

Price: 4,590 rubles

The best push-button phone in the Finnish brand's lineup is the Nokia 8110 4G. This is one of the latest innovations from the company, which was popularly nicknamed “banana” for its design.

The phone is made in a slider format, which will appeal to those who still feel nostalgic for old models of a similar form factor. But the ability of the phone to operate at 4G frequencies will be appreciated by everyone without exception, because thanks to this, users are guaranteed high quality communication and voice transmission.

An interesting point is that due to the device’s 4G support, it can be used as a Wi-Fi router. Also worth mentioning is the ability to import contacts into your phone from a Google account.

Despite the fact that the Nokia 8110 4G is an extremely profitable solution in terms of price and quality ratio, the device has several significant disadvantages. The first is the dampness of the software, the second is that the phone slows down even in the menu. Third, when the bottom part is pulled out, random key presses occur.
