Nokia 105 2G Feature Phone with long-lasting battery, 12 hours of talk-time, wireless FM radio, large display, and tactile keyboard, Dual Sim - Charcoal

Perfect for kids. Not internet, good battery good quality good cost durable and not camera! Not tactil screen not easy to use compared with old people's models. In my opinion is not difficult for one 6 year old kid but can be for one 3 or 4 years old.

Very good , excellent little Nokia phone

I bought this smartphone for my 11 year old for going to secondary school on the bus. I wanted him to be able to stay in touch with me in case he got lost or delayed, without all the smartphone features that are so potentially addictive and dangerous for kids. This one seemed perfect and the price point even more so! If it gets lost it's not such an issue (bearing in mind phones and devices are more likely to get lost with absent minded kids). All in all it's a great value brick phone; the turquoise colour is good for not getting lost and being visible in the depths of your back, and it's small and light enough to fit in your bag or pocket without weighing you down (or your kid's already heavy school bag). The interface is fine; most of us probably remember it from our pre-smartphone days. There's the classic game "Snake" to pass the time when bored on the bus, and you can text and so on. Obviously there's no internet but I didn't want that for my child. One small annoyance: there are a few other basic games like Tetris but you have to pay to get the full game, which I thought was a bit of a rip off! This is a bit of an idiot-proof device for anyone who is a technophobe - and easy to learn. All in all good value and a decent option for anyone looking to stay smartphone free for longer - or to purchase a basic phone that won't break easily, won't matter if it gets lost and won't get your child addicted to the internet and apps. Worth it!

I purchased this for my son as an alternative to a smart phone - setup is simple unfortunately signal capability is very poor. I am on the same network as the SIM being used on the phone and I receive full 5 bars indoors and outdoors. However on this device signal was intermittent, with 50% of incoming\outgoing calls failing. We tested it out and about with the other phone as the baseline and the same problem persisted in different geographic locations. I suspect this is something to do with the phone not using more modern network technology. I've reverted to a very locked down smart device for now.

It's so much worse than Nokia phones we had 20 years ago. The usability of the software is poor. * The keyboard is hard to lock (you need to scroll through menus to fins this action) and easy to accidentally unlock. I get calls from my daughter's backpack all the time. * One of the soft buttons is hard wired to turning the radio on (the most useful function, right?). You can't change that. So you have to cram all the other shortcuts you need into the second soft button. * Menu navigation is not intuitive. And it's hard to access – it is very easy to press it sideways, and one of joystick shortcuts will open instead of the menu. * A number of games is preloaded onto the phone, but they are demo versions that require payment after first 3 games. Hey, we always had the snake for free! And there is no means to pay, b.t.w., even if you want to. So they just litter the menu of the phone after the free games are over. * The calls are all right though.

I have several of these phones as backup - work on call phones - and I really can't fault them for the price point and fantastic value for money - and takes two sims at the same time. PLEASE REMEMBER this is NOT a smartphone - and only works on the 2G frequencies - not 3/4/5G. Battery will last DAYS. Great for someone as a backup or who does not want a smartphone - basic calls and texts only - and no touch. Fantastic value.

I often go to the negative reviews for a product, to get an idea of the lay of the land. It doesn't matter if a certain issue is rare - if the wheels fall off a car occasionally, then it speaks to unacceptable quality control. So the negative reviews almost put me off buying this phone - which has been bought as a teen back-up emergency phone, for if her main phone dies - & - if you pull out a charger, it just gets snatched by her friends! I was expecting nasty to go with cheap - but it's absolutely fine. Some are citing issues with the centre navigation button/system - but really you need to press the sides with your nail, not a finger. Trying to press it with your actual finger, you're gonna be on a hiding to nothing. Working great with an EE SIM - but my use-case is emergency calls, & SMS texts.

Bought this phone for my elderly mum as she wanted a basic mobile phone and she’s very happy with it. It’s easy to use and charge lasts a long time

Lovely colour functional and neat, quite small with a werd texture on the back but still very nice. Cool functions.

Not usb-c charging port
