Nokia push-button. The best feature phones

The telephone has become a thing that we cannot do without in our time. Everyone has at least one mobile phone. Despite the popularity of smartphones, there are still many fans of push-button phones. And here are the new products for 2016-2017 that you should pay attention to.

Nokia push-button phones

Nokia 230 Dual Sim

New push-button phone from Nokia in a metal case. Made in traditional Nokia style. Large body with a 2.8-inch screen (65.54 thousand colors). One of the main advantages is 2 SIM cards that work alternately. The phone has two built-in cameras (rear and front) and an LED flash. Both cameras are 2 megapixels. Internal memory – 16 MB, it is possible to use a memory card up to 32 GB.

According to the manufacturer, the battery is designed for 23 hours of talk time, 52 hours in music mode, and a standby time of 528 hours. In practice, the phone does not withstand standby mode for more than four days. There may be problems with the Internet; the phone does not support 3G. The mobile phone is massive, which is why girls have problems with ergonomics when using this model.

Another one of the Nokia phones in the series, which includes the new 2016 models with the ability to use two SIM cards. Among others, the model stands out due to its powerful battery – it can last more than 7 days. The phone is lightweight and travel-friendly. 2.4 inch color screen, soft keyboard. Social networks and the Opera browser are provided separately for convenient quick access. Built-in flashlight.

The disadvantages of the model are visible almost immediately, starting from the screen: inaccurate color reproduction, the screen changes it at the viewing angle. Despite the fairly comfortable keyboard, there is a hard-to-use middle joystick. The proprietary speaker and camera are not of the best quality. The phone is not able to display missed calls - to do this you will have to go to the menu, find the call log there and study its contents. It connects to the PC only in storage or charging mode, and then only with a memory card inserted. This model does not support speed dialing. And you will have to pay an additional amount for games. The locking system has been changed to a “hang up-menu” combination. You can only add one number to a contact; additional numbers are not supported.

Compact push-button mobile phone, has 2 SIM cards and a loud speaker. The buttons are covered with rubberized material. The model does an excellent job of maintaining communication. It has a clear screen (16.78 million colors), which displays a large and easy-to-read font and displays the date and time. Additionally, a flashlight and another hearing speaker are built-in.

The disadvantages of this mobile phone include:

The battery holds a charge for only four days, compared to the stated 21 days;
The body is coated with a glossy finish that makes fingerprints easily visible;
The control joystick is small and inconvenient to operate;
Internet use is difficult, although there are social networking apps;
Java applications are only built-in, third-party ones cannot be installed;
The MP3 player does not have an equalizer;
The lid opens too tightly, there is a chance of breaking the case.

Nokia 3310

3310 is a once iconic phone model, released back in 2000. Not so long ago, at the MWC-2017 exhibition, Nokia presented an updated version of the 3310, which should appeal to both fans of the classics and those who simply need a reliable dialer for every day.

The new product comes in a variety of bright colors, has a 2.4’’ LCD display, a 2 MP camera, a slot for a flash drive and a headphone output, which allows you to use it as an mp3 player. The battery capacity is 1200 mAh, which is enough for 22 hours of talk time, and in standby mode the 3310 will lie on the shelf for about a month. The price of the phone is not the most modest; for 3310 you will have to pay 50 euros.

Nokia 150

Nokia 150, which has no previous merits, costs much less - you can buy the phone for 1.9-2 thousand rubles. And besides a different design and a slightly worse camera (0.3 versus 2 MP), it offers its owner essentially the same thing. On board the 150th model there is a 2.4’’ screen, a hybrid card slot (flash drives up to 32 GB are supported), a flashlight, radio, 3.5 headphone output and Bluetooth, allowing you to connect a wireless headset.

Autonomy is provided by a 1020 mAh battery, which lasts for 31 days in standby mode. Among the shortcomings of the Nokia 150, we can only note the classic Nokia 4-way control button, which does not seem convenient to everyone.

Samsung push-button phones new 2016-2017

Samsung B350E

A push-button mobile phone has a rougher and more brutal design compared to its predecessors. These phones are new for 2016 and give the impression of being a rational device. The buttons are soft and large enough, made of rubberized material. The back cover has a matte relief. Has 2 SIM cards. Built-in flashlight. Manufacturers have installed a large number of applications, which allows you to use the mobile phone as a very slow smartphone without a touch panel.

There are few disadvantages, but they exist. The buttons are located too close to each other, which is why the press may not register correctly. The camera has only 2 megapixels, autofocus and flash are missing. The phone supports Internet only in GPRS format. Despite its good characteristics, the screen transmits information very poorly in the sun. Due to the large number of pre-installed applications, the phone slows down.

Samsung SM-B310E

The new 2016 model is somewhat unusual for the company, as it exceeds the usual dimensions for phones of this brand. Typically, push-button mobile phones from Samsung are smaller in size. Made in a metal case with plastic inserts. The speaker is loud enough. The model already includes the Opera browser and Skype. There is a flashlight. The battery can withstand three days of use with infrequent use, and a day with constant use.

On the downside, the player does not display songs whose titles contain Cyrillic. The sound in the headphones is weak, the headset is not supported by the model at all. The screen is very fragile and scratches easily. Java applications are limited to run. If the RAM is overloaded, the phone will spontaneously restart the system. The screen has a very small viewing angle and does not display information correctly in the sun.

Philips push-button phones new 2016-2017

Philips E181

A convenient push-button new product for 2016 from Philips, which supports 2 SIM cards and a very powerful 3100 mAh battery that can withstand 139 days of standby time and two days of talk time. There is also a camera. You can even use it to charge other phones if you have a cable. Very loud speaker and reliable build.

According to user reviews, the battery can last for a month. The screen is dim and has small font. The cover glass gets scratched quickly. The sound is unclear and blurry at high volumes. The headphones are perceived poorly; the sound in them leaves much to be desired. The buttons are very soft to press, which is uncomfortable when worn without a case. The sound of a call is not muted.

A 2016 phone with two SIM cards, which is designed for easy use by anyone. It doesn't have any technical bells and whistles, but is equipped with a huge keyboard and on-screen fonts. There is a “magnifying glass” function with a five-fold zoom and “speech synthesis”, which sounds the characters being typed. The phone is ideal for older people. There is a charging dock that can be mounted on the wall or simply placed. There is an SOS button on the back panel. Camera available. The battery can hold a charge for up to two months.

Many phone functions require a memory card. The SOS button is located in the wrong place and can be pressed accidentally in a pocket or purse. The phone's memory is quite small and is not enough for most functions. The camera doesn't shoot well in low light.

Philips E570

E570 is the senior model in the Xenium line of long-lasting push-button phones. For 4,000 thousand rubles you can get a dialer that has a standby time of up to 170 days, which can also be used as a power bank to charge other devices. With actual use, the phone lasts about 2-3 weeks.

E570 works with two SIM cards, has a bright 2.8’’ screen, a 2MP camera, a loud speaker, supports radio, plays mp3 and video. In general, it has everything that an average user needs. Among the shortcomings, we note a weak vibration alert; many users also complain about the color design of the menu - white text on a blue background, while the ability to change the theme is not provided.

FLY push-button phones

Fly TS112

The peculiarity of this phone is that it works with three SIM cards. The device also perfectly maintains the network in conditions of a weak signal, which will not allow you to be left without communication in an elevator or passage. The 1400 mAh battery is enough for several days of continuous operation. The 1.30 MP camera is suitable for capturing the necessary information.

Fly FF246

Budget new product from Fly with a 0.3 MP camera. It also supports Bluetooth 2.1 to connect another phone or headset. The 1000 mAh battery will allow you to work in talk mode for 4 hours and standby time for 200 hours.

Feature phones from other manufacturers

LG G360

The clamshell form factor has seemingly sunk into oblivion, but it still has its adherents. And if you are one of them, then the LG G360 should not go unnoticed. This is a stylish and well-assembled clamshell, in a plastic case (available in two colors - red and gray), with a large 3'' screen, a replaceable battery and full support for two SIM cards and a flash drive.

Among the pleasant aspects are a loud speaker, large and comfortable control keys, as well as excellent call quality in any conditions. Cons: mediocre battery life (the battery is only 950 mAh, you will have to charge the phone every 3-4 days), a camera for show, and a somewhat inflated price (from 4.5 thousand rubles).

Micromax X1800 Joy

The X1800 fits the description like no other phone – cheap and cheerful. Looking for any shortcomings in a phone that costs 700 rubles is not a rewarding task, but the X1800 doesn’t have any particular disadvantages; the only serious compromise in favor of lowering the price can be considered the lack of a vibration alert function as such.

In all other respects, this is an excellent caller for ridiculous money. The phone supports two SIM cards, has a flashlight, Bluetooth, a memory card slot, a loud speaker and a decent battery that can provide up to a week of battery life for moderate private conversations. We definitely recommend purchasing it if you are on a limited budget.

Alcatel 1054E

The Alcatel 1054E is not much more expensive, which can be purchased for 900-1000 rubles. In addition to all the functions described above, it has a vibration alert and a 0.3 MP camera. Users of this model note the loud and high-quality sound of the main and conversational speakers, good signal reception in problem areas, as well as excellent build quality for its price. The downside is a weak battery, which lasts for 4-5 days of operation with infrequent conversations.

teXet TM-513R

Let's not forget about secure phones. One of the most popular SUVs is the TM-513R from domestic electronics manufacturer teXet. The phone was introduced at the end of 2015, but to this day it remains relevant and the brand’s best-selling model. The gadget is certified to the IP67 protection standard, it is not afraid of short-term immersion in water, is completely protected from dust and is resistant to falls thanks to rubberized aluminum inserts that reinforce the phone's body.

Among the advantages of the model are support for two SIM cards, very loud speakers, good autonomy (you will have to charge it on average once a week) and a relatively good camera. The main drawback is the build quality that varies from model to model, which is why some users may end up with defects. Price – from 3.2 thousand rubles.

Mobile phones with buttons are gradually becoming a thing of history, and it can be difficult to find such a product in a store. This is primarily due to the popularization of smartphones and tablet computers. Today there are few adherents of push-button mobile phones left, but they still exist.

It is based on their reasoning that our rating of the best push-button phones in 2019-2020 is presented. It will discuss interesting features and main characteristics of gadgets, which will help you decide on a model with the optimal price-quality ratio.

Samsung SM-B310E

Despite the fact that the Samsung company is known to domestic buyers for its sophisticated smartphones and expensive tablets, budget push-button devices also remain in its model line. In addition to a pair of alternately working SIM cards, the budget device of the SM-B310E series stands out due to its high-quality housing with an original design. The model received a fairly large 2-inch display for push-button devices. To expand the built-in memory of the device, a microSD card with a maximum capacity of up to 16 GB is provided. The autonomy of the lightweight phone is not satisfactory: it can be used for 40 hours while continuously listening to your favorite music tracks.

VERTEX S103

This folding device does not have any special functions from its owners. But at the same time, a folding phone with 2 SIM cards fully copes with providing high-quality communication and has an attractive appearance. On a small 1.77-inch screen, the displayed font looks small, and there is a good 800 mAh battery. But the manufacturer has provided a large clock on the display, which is very convenient. In terms of dimensions, a clamshell phone is more suitable for miniature female hands, and the color schemes of the case are difficult to classify as masculine. Overall, the model is quite attractive and supports MP3 and FM radio. Otherwise, this is a standard dialer, albeit of a folding design.

Micromax X2401

The attractive appearance of a push-button mobile phone, together with a standard set of functions, made this device a universal communication device. The display is medium-sized - 2.4 inches, has a relatively good resolution of 320x240 pixels, which allows you to see the main details captured by its 2 MP camera. If you wish, you can also shoot a short video and transmit it via Bluetooth. The device can only be used for cellular communications, since apart from the GSM standard it does not provide either 3G or Wi-Fi for Internet access. Among the additional functions of the phone, one can only highlight the radio.

Fly TS112

Not every modern device can provide reliable and at the same time inexpensive communication to people who use three cellular operators at once. You can find a good budget phone with three SIM cards only among the offerings of the Chinese electronics market. One such product is the TS112 device from the Fly brand. Due to the fact that it is quite difficult to place three slots for standard SIM cards behind a fairly large 1400 mAh battery, and even a slot for a flash drive, the length of the device in question was 13 centimeters. At the same time, in a cell phone it is possible to set melodies both for each individual SIM card and for all contacts. The talk time of this device is as much as 300 hours; at this price, this is a fairly good push-button phone among its competitors.

BQ BQM-2406 Toledo

This powerful push-button phone is of good quality, made like most similar devices with two SIM cards. A powerful and ergonomic 2750 mAh battery ensures excellent autonomy of the device. In standby mode, the gadget can work as much as 900 hours. The device provides the ability to expand the internal storage of information. This became possible thanks to an additional micro SD slot, which is designed for external drives with a maximum capacity of up to 32 GB. Otherwise, this is a standard device for providing high-quality cellular communications.

Micromax X1800 Joy

In terms of its characteristics, a good push-button phone does not particularly stand out among the mass of similar gadgets. At the same time, users are amazed by its compact size, given that the device supports two SIM cards. But even despite the miniature size of the model, the company’s engineers fit a 1.77-inch screen into it. The device has a notebook for 300 contacts. There was also room in the case for a weak photo module. The most important advantage of the phone is its low cost, as well as MP3 support.

BQ BQM-1406 Vitre

This strong push-button telephone has a stylish futuristic design. It received a good color TFT display, the diagonal size of which was 1.44 inches with a resolution of 176 by 144 pixels. The mobile device does not have the most powerful 600 mAh battery. But it provided FM radio, Bluetooth and Internet access WAP, GPRS, EDGE. Externally, the original device, with support for two SIM cards, was manufactured as a standard dialer. And, despite the presence of additional functions and Internet access, the phone is suitable for people who are accustomed to using it for its intended purpose.

Samsung Metro B350E

The appearance of this inexpensive push-button telephone is standard. The corrugated back cover prevents the device from slipping out of your hands. Among the advantages, it is worth highlighting a fairly large 2.4-inch display with a good resolution of 320 by 240. It is also a push-button phone with a good 2 million pixel camera, which is quite good for this type of device. The manufacturer tried to find the optimal balance in the functionality of the device's phone book. It is designed for a thousand contacts, and the maximum length of entered initials is 20 characters. A feature of a high-quality device is the presence of a powerful 1200 mAh battery and a large number of Java applications.

LG G360

Our rating of push-button mobile devices continues with a stylish folding model from LG. The device was equipped with good internal memory of 20 MB. This is a push-button phone with a large 3-inch screen, which has high brightness and contrast. There is, although not the best 1.3 MP camera, but good enough for a push-button camera. The device will also please you with its high-quality 950 mAh battery. Such capacitive indicators allow you to use the device in continuous talk mode for 13 hours. The price of the gadget is, of course, not as low as that of other best phones in the rating, but nevertheless it is a high-quality brand and its devices “live” for a long time without complaints.

Nokia 222 Dual Sim

The reliable push-button phone has a 2.4 inch screen. He received a relatively good photo module. The camera resolution is 2 megapixels, which will allow you to take mediocre photographs in daylight. The manufacturer has provided an additional slot for external drives, which increases the size of the internal memory to 32 GB. Thanks to this, you can store your favorite music and photos in it. A strong push-button gadget provides stable cellular communication. The phone is very simple and easy to use. And its price-quality ratio allows it to compete with most devices in our rating.

Alcatel One Touch 2007D

Our TOP does not always include modern, expensive smartphones from world-famous brands. Here you can also find cheap phones that are very interesting in their functionality. Although the model in question, despite its cheapness, received a quite decent 2.4-inch TFT display, as well as an excellent 3 million pixel camera. The device has good sound quality and an original design. This is a push-button telephone for the elderly. There are no unnecessary bells and whistles, and it is very simple and reliable to use. And pensioners will especially be pleased with its affordable price.

BQ BQM-2408 Mexico

One of the best push-button phones in our 2017 rating provides sequential communication with four cellular operators thanks to the support of 4 SIM cards. The device is light in weight and has a relatively good 800 mAh battery. The manufacturer positions the gadget as a convenient device that provides high-quality communication while traveling. Although this number of SIM cards is slightly excessive. If you install several SIM cards from the same operator, but with different tariffs, it is quite difficult to figure out what to turn on and when. This inexpensive phone has the ability to access the Internet via WAP, GPRS, EDGE protocols. There is also Bluetooth and USB. Thanks to the USB connector, the phone can be synchronized with a desktop computer.

Philips E560

The push-button phone with 2 SIM cards working alternately has an attractive design and a very high-quality battery. The gadget has a TFT screen, the size of which is 2.4 inches diagonally, and its resolution is 240 by 320 pixels. In addition, the device has an MP3 player, radio, Bluetooth and a slot for external drives up to 32 GB. The model has one of the most powerful batteries for push-button gadgets, the capacity of which is 3100 mAh. A fully charged battery provides 5 days of stable operation even with maximum use of the phone in different modes. The main advantages of this device are: high autonomy, reliability and excellent quality of cellular communications, as well as a good 2 m pixel camera.

Nokia 222 Dual Sim

If you like push-button mobile phones, then this device is created just for you. This is a great option for fans of push-button devices. What pleases me most is the large and colorful 2.4-inch display and a very good 2 MP camera. This device will always allow you to listen to audio tracks or enjoy the sound of your favorite radio wave thanks to the MP3 player and FM radio provided by the manufacturer. You can store your photos and other information on a 32 GB flash card, which is supported by the gadget thanks to the micro SD slot. This is a pretty good device that deserves to occupy the penultimate place in our rating.

Alcatel One Touch 2012D

At a relatively low cost, the clamshell phone has a cool 3 megapixel camera. Naturally, this is far from sufficient for professional photographs, but as a feature phone, this is the best photo module. This is a fairly light device weighing 98 grams with compact dimensions. However, the small folding body of a good phone did not become an obstacle to using a fairly large 2.8-inch screen. The device received an MP3 player and a bluetooth 3.0 module, thanks to which you can connect a wireless headset.

Summing up

Drawing a bold line under the rating of the best push-button phones for 2017, I would like to believe that all lovers of push-button gadgets managed to choose a model that satisfies all the requirements. In our TOP we consider affordable devices that have quite decent characteristics to ensure high-quality communication. We recommend that everyone who decides which push-button phone to buy take a closer look at the presented devices, since our rating contains only proven devices with exclusively positive reviews from their owners.

Despite the popularity of modern touchscreen smartphones, there are still users who prefer push-button phones. Of course, they are mostly elderly people, but there are also those who simply don’t need any bells and whistles, the main thing is that the phone rings. We analyzed the market and selected the best solutions based on their photo capabilities and autonomy. You can see what came out of this in our rating of feature phones with a good camera and battery for 2018-2019.

No. 7 – Philips E560

Price: 3,539 rubles

The inexpensive Philips E560 is one of the loudest phones in the company's range. If you set the volume on your device to maximum, you are guaranteed to hear a call, even if you are on the subway. In general, the sound quality of the model is excellent - there is no dull sound in the conversational speaker, plus there is a noise reduction system, so even when talking on the street, your interlocutor will only hear you.

The main advantage of the model is its autonomy. The 3010 mAh battery lasts for one and a half to two weeks. At the same time, you can easily turn the brightness slider to maximum to comfortably use the screen in the sun. As for the 2-megapixel camera, it will come to your aid if you need to take a photo of a book page or some document; you shouldn’t count on anything more. The Philips E560 has no significant shortcomings, but the joystick spoils the operating experience a little. People with thumbs will press adjacent number buttons.

No. 6 – teXet TM-513R

Price: 3,410 rubles

The teXet TM-513R push-button telephone has a body protected from water and shock. There are no complaints about the build quality - everything is done conscientiously. The model has a very good 2570 mAh battery. This value is enough for the user to have to use the charger no more than once a week. The speaker is also pleasing - the call can be heard even in a noisy place, and when playing melodies you will be surprised by the purity of the sound.

The teXet TM-513R is unlikely to surprise anyone with its photographic capabilities. A 2-megapixel sensor is clearly not enough for those who want to use it to take pictures for their Instagram, but if you have more modest needs, then there will be no complaints about it. More significant drawbacks include the non-standard menu interface, which you will have to get used to at first.

No. 5 – Nokia 3310 Dual Sim

Price: 2,990 rubles

Nokia is one of the few that still pays attention to the segment of inexpensive push-button phones. Its model Nokia 3310 Dual Sim, released in February last year, differs from its competitors in its striking appearance. The design of the mobile phone resembles a Tamagotchi or some kind of toy. Moreover, as you can guess from the name, it supports two SIM cards at once.

The 2.4-inch display, surprisingly, has bright and rich colors, as well as good contrast. Also, the Nokia 3310 Dual Sim has a very good battery, which is quite capable of lasting about 5-7 days with active use of the phone. The camera, in general, is standard, what you would expect in a feature phone. True, it clearly lacks autofocus. There are no serious shortcomings that spoil the impression of the model. If there are only shortcomings in the form of a constant “no SIM” message when you do not use a second SIM card, as well as the inability to link two numbers to one contact.

Nokia 3310 Dual Sim

No. 4 – Philips Xenium E570

Price: 4,505 rubles

Philips Xenium E570 will appeal to those who need a mobile phone with a good battery. A battery with a capacity of 3610 mAh lasts for an average of one and a half to two weeks of use. If you use the phone extremely rarely, the value can increase up to a month. Also, I would like to note the metal lid. Thanks to it, the Philips Xenium E570 will be able to survive several encounters with asphalt.

The speaker volume will be enough even to hear a call on a busy street. A camera with a 2 MP sensor resolution can produce good results in the presence of sufficient lighting; in its absence there will be a mess of pixels and noise. The model turned out to be really successful, but still not ideal. The disadvantages include a strange interface that does not fit modern standards, as well as rather weak vibration.

Philips Xenium E570

No. 3 – SENSEIT P300

Price: 5,360 rubles

SENSEIT P300 intelligently implements protection against water, dust and shock. Due to this, your mobile phone will serve you for many years. All this time, it will delight you with excellent autonomy, which is provided by a 2500 mAh battery. On average, it will need to be charged once every 10-14 days.

I would also like to note the 2.4-inch screen with a resolution of 400 by 360 pixels. The image on it is surprisingly bright and juicy. Plus, the font used in the interface is large, so older people will not have problems recognizing the text. A 2-megapixel camera is quite enough to capture some important object. The disadvantages of the model include crooked design and unstable firmware.

No. 2 – Nokia 8110 4G

Price: 4,990 rubles

Nokia 8110 4G, made in a slider form factor, resembles a banana in its appearance. This is especially noticeable when the phone is extended. In addition to the non-standard design, the device offers its owner support for 4G networks, as well as a decent level of autonomy. On average, it can last 4-5 days on a single charge.

I would especially like to mention the speaker. Both when talking and listening to music, it produces clear sound; in this parameter, the Nokia 8110 4G can easily compete with modern smartphones. The 2-megapixel camera with LED flash is enough for document photos. On the street you can achieve something with the right lighting, but if you decide to shoot at night, you will be unpleasantly surprised by the detail of the photo. The disadvantages of the device include an uncomfortable keyboard, although only those with large fingers will encounter this.

#1 – BlackBerry KEY2

Price: 38,500 rubles

BlackBerry KEY2 is a true flagship in the world of feature phones. It has an elegant and stylish business design, so the gadget will look most harmonious in the hands of a businessman. The build quality is at a premium level - the design is reliable, nothing creaks or plays.

The smartphone turned out to be quite good in terms of autonomy. The 3500 mAh battery lasts for two to two and a half days of operation. This is despite the fact that there is a 4.5-inch display with a resolution of 1620 by 1080 pixels, which produces a bright picture with natural color reproduction and a powerful Snapdragon 660 processor, which is fast in both games and regular applications.

The photographic capabilities of the BlackBerry KEY2 are represented by a dual main camera of 12+12 MP and an 8-megapixel front camera. Both modules are implemented well, but in our opinion, the rear camera turned out especially well. It has a macro mode, as well as autofocus, and in general, photos are obtained with the correct color balance and a decent level of sharpness. Serious disadvantages include the price. Still, even taking into account the fact that this is a good camera, the cost seems overpriced. Less significant disadvantages include the lack of NFC, support for 5 GHz Wi-Fi and the operation of two SIM cards simultaneously.

Push-button cell phones gave way to smartphones in popularity in Russia 3 years ago (in 2014), and in recent years sales of push-button phones have been constantly declining. However, it is too early to discount them. In 2016, in Russia, according to J'son & Partners Consulting, 10.8 million push-button phones were sold, this amounted to 29% of the total sales of mobile phones (for comparison: 26 smartphones were sold on the Russian market in 2016, 4 million pieces). For the most part, push-button telephone models are used by older people. There are also young people who specifically buy push-button cell phones so as not to waste time on social networks, games and other delights of smartphones, and to use the phone only for its intended purpose - to make and receive calls. Parents who care that their child does not sit on a smartphone during classes and after them, but is engaged in studying, also buy push-button mobile phones for their children. Finally, a push-button phone can become a temporary phone for calls if the smartphone has to be taken to a service center for repairs or during a trip when there is no way to charge the smartphone, and a push-button phone, as a rule, holds a charge longer than the average smartphone. The main advantage of push-button phones is their low price, accessible to everyone. The average price of a push-button telephone in Russia is 1.7 thousand rubles, while the average price of a smartphone is 7 times more - 12.1 thousand rubles.

From reviews:

"Nokia's design is all right - especially now, when every second person has a black rectangle, only the logo on the back cover is different for everyone. After this handset, my smartphone seemed uncomfortable, cold, empty and heavy. I look at Nokia and just get a kick out of it lies in the hand, in the car, on the table. Light as a feather, fits in a lighter pocket in jeans. Definitely + for appearance and tactile sensations.

Excellent call quality!

Unexpectedly simple. I was trying to figure out how to turn on airplane mode at night, but it turned out that you just need to turn off the phone, SHOCK! It turns on/off in about 5 seconds. In the morning the alarm clock rang with the phone turned off - I had already forgotten these simple joys.

What else? Compared to the old 3310 there is a flashlight, calendar, radio and a standard charging connector

According to the instructions, a new battery needs to be completely discharged, then charged for 12/24 hours and completely discharged again. And so 3-5 times, then the battery will last longer. It took me 2 weeks after charging before the phone started reporting that the battery was low - naturally at the most inconvenient moment, but the phone continued to work! I called and was surprised. On the 3rd day, I decided to “help” him, turned on the flashlight and forgot about the phone for 3.5 hours, but it continued to work, then I also turned on the radio through the speakerphone - it worked for another 2 hours."

7th place.

Nokia 150 Dual sim

The average price is 2,580 rubles. A cell phone from the beginning of 2017 received 21% of fives in Yandex Market and 56% of recommendations for purchase.

Technical characteristics: 2.4-inch 320x240 screen, 0.3 MP camera, dual SIM support, MP3 support. Slot for memory card up to 32 GB. The battery life in talk mode is 22 hours.

From reviews:

"Lightweight, compact, holds a charge for a long time. T9 works perfectly. Although the flashlight is not very bright, the power button is designed very conveniently and in two combinations. No Internet (for me this is a plus). Excellent sound in the microphone, the interlocutor can be heard clearly and me hear clearly.

In general, the rating for this phone among other rubbish is 5, and the rating regarding what Nokia should do, and even for that kind of money, is 3, so I give it an average 4. I bought it for my mother - for her this is generally an ideal option - nothing extra. I wanted the same one as a dialer, but now I don’t even know without bluetooth and some other functions. The unpleasant thing is that among the rubbish that they sell now, there’s not even anything to choose from, even Samsung has stopped making normal ones. Of all the push-button devices, Nokia is the only one that I liked the conversational speakers."

6th place.

LEXAND A4 Big

From reviews: "The phone itself is convenient and light. In addition, the plus is that the battery lasts quite a long time. Another advantage, in my opinion, is the size of the screen and the keyboard; for such a device there is a fairly large display and keys, which looks advantageous. In addition, the call is loud , in a noisy place you can hear quite a bit."

From reviews:

“When you don’t have a smartphone at hand, and you’re somewhere outside the city or somewhere at a resort, for example, it wouldn’t be such a shame to lose it in any case - it can go online, even if somehow through Opera with 2G , but still, with normal ears, it’s good to listen to music and take a picture of something.

And the main thing is that you won’t be afraid that the battery will run out like on a smartphone! I recommend it if you decide to buy."

From reviews:

"The weight is optimal. Not a toy or a brick in your pocket.

The display is bright and clear. Contrasting colors. Enhancing the richness of flowers. The color scheme of the display style is strict without frills.

Battery capacity 1200 mAh. If it works as advertised, it's great for a phone with 1 SIM card.

Loud call signal. Distinct. If the environment is noisy, put an earphone in your left ear, everything can be solved. The music is delicious. I checked how the radio plays, with good headphones - great.

The price is normal. Moans about the price from those who don't remember. And Nokia has always been 2-2.5 times more expensive than its counterparts from China. This is the “good - above average” product segment. European quality and the price is right. By the way, the device is not from China. Collected in Vietnam. Inside, under the battery, it says Finland.

The menu is simple, I looked through it and studied it in 5 minutes.

The font is easy to read and easy on the eyes. SMS messages come in windows with white text on a discreet orange background.

In standby mode, simply pressing the button on the right, on a locked phone, gives a clear large inscription “screen time” and a small battery in the upper right corner - “charge level”. I'm in awe, such a strict classic. Nothing extra".
