The best Nokia feature phones. The best models of push-button phones from Nokia Nokia touch and push-button phones

Today it is difficult to imagine life without a smartphone - without all the functionality that it includes. But just some 15–20 years ago, push-button “gadgets” ruled the world. Nowadays, they have almost completely lost their former popularity and have given way to touchscreen phones, but there is still a small number of adherents of good push-button phones - people who do not want to switch to using touchscreen smartphones. It is for such “conservatives” that this rating of push-button phones 2017. This list will help guide people who are choosing a simple dialer, but at the same time practical and reliable.

10. BRAVIS F242 Dialog

Opens the Top 10 best push-button phones of 2017 – BRAVIS F242 Dialog. This model is not distinguished by anything out of the ordinary, but there is nothing to criticize it for either. The battery life is average - the performance is far from the leaders, but you obviously won’t have to complain. It is worth noting a good bright screen with large elements (numbers, icons, fonts). There are two slots for SIM cards. The phone turned out to be pretty good for the money. In addition, BRAVIS F242 Dialog pleases with its simplicity, but at the same time it has the necessary functionality (alarm clock, flashlight, stopwatch, calculator and other functions that are so often useful in life).

9. BQ Mobile BQ-2411 Swift L

The next model in our rating of push-button phones 2017 is the BQ Mobile BQ-2411 Swift L. To be honest, this is the golden mean. There are no catchy “pros” in it, but there are no pressing “cons” either. Therefore, it’s just worth listing its characteristics and noting that it doesn’t have all sorts of “tricks”. Now, as for this phone model: two slots for SIM cards, “average” battery and screen, “standard” memory (with the ability to increase it with a memory card), Bluetooth, several colors. As has already been said, this is the most average phone: neither give nor take. And that’s why it’s in demand - practical and without problems.

8.Fly FF282

A pretty good option among phones with mechanical buttons is the Fly FF282. This model has a characteristic screen size of 2.8 inches, which is larger than the “standard” for push-button mobile phones (2.4 inches). A comfortable keyboard and pleasant appearance coupled with the small thickness of the Fly FF282 have a positive effect on its ease of use. Equipped with Bluetooth, FM radio, 3.5 mm audio jack. Overall, the phone is good, but the overall picture is spoiled by its own memory, which is virtually non-existent, and a mediocre camera, the presence of which is more likely to be a “for show” fad.

7. SENSEIT L208

SENSEIT L208 will be an excellent choice for those who need to stay constantly in touch - the large battery capacity allows you to keep the phone charged for up to fifty hours of talk time (!). Has two slots for SIM cards. Pros: Bluetooth 3.0, USB, support for multiple audio formats, FM radio. Among the shortcomings, it is worth noting the lack of a camera, Internet access and a small amount of internal memory (which, on the other hand, is compensated by the ability to increase the built-in memory to 32 GB). Among other things, this phone is famous for its high build quality.

6.AGM M1

Among the majority of good push-button phones, the AGM M1 stands out. First of all, its protection from mechanical damage and exposure to aggressive environments attracts attention. Its body is made of metal and rubber, which allows it to withstand all the “hardships” of using the phone even in extreme conditions. But at the same time, this makes it bulkier and heavier than other phones. We are also pleased with the wide functionality of the device and the large capacity of its battery. And, interestingly, the main camera of the AGM M1 is waterproof.

5.Micromax X940

The top five feature phones of 2017 include the Micromax X940. This phone is designed in a minimal style, which is a fashion trend these days. In addition, the Micromax X940 looks much more stylish than many phones with a mechanical keyboard. In addition to the attractive appearance, it is worth noting the nimble shell, large high-quality screen and pleasant operation of the device as a whole. Also, the battery capacity is clearly pleasing - 3000 mAh. This phone even had a place for GPRS and Bluetooth Audio. The downside is that the camera is absolutely useless. But in general, the Micromax X940 is quite good, and also at an affordable price.

4. Nokia 216 Dual Sim

A pretty good option for those for whom the phone is important only as a means of communication is the Nokia 216 Dual Sim. This model is available in three colors (blue, blue, black) and has two slots for SIM cards. Nokia 216 Dual Sim is a classic feature phone that holds a charge for a long time, has good speakers, a bright flashlight and display. In addition, the ratio of cost and quality aspects of this device is more than excellent. The disadvantages of this model include limited functionality. But in general, the Nokia 216 Dual Sim is very reliable, and the price-quality ratio is also pleasantly pleasing.

3. BQ Mobile BQ-3201 Option

The undoubted leader in appearance (so to speak) among push-button phones is the BQ Mobile BQ-3201 Option. The brainchild of the Spanish company BQ clearly stands out by this criterion among others of its kind. Attractive appearance, large screen, fast shell, metal body and even the presence of a TV tuner! Besides all this, the price for BQ Mobile BQ-3201 Option is more than affordable. In general... there’s not much to complain about in this phone model: high-quality build, reasonable price, catchy appearance - the phone turned out to be quite decent.

2. Nokia 3310 (2017)

The once legendary and well-known push-button Nokia 3310 received a second life and a new incarnation in the 2017 restyled version. The advantages of the phone include a thin, comfortable body, a good display (good screen visibility even in bright sunlight), long battery life, a slot for a memory card and a headset included, support for MP3, FM radio, Bluetooth 3.0. Among the shortcomings are a weak camera, a noticeably inflated price, severe restrictions on installing applications, a weak speaker and ease of firmware.

1. Philips Xenium E570

And the palm in the ranking of the best push-button phones of 2017 goes to the Philips Xenium E570. You can describe it long and hard, but perhaps you need to start with the characteristics: 2.8-inch screen, 2 MP camera, Bluetooth 3.0, USB, FM radio, large battery capacity, 2 SIM card slots and quite a lot of functionality other bells and whistles. The only downside is that the catastrophically small amount of its own memory attracts attention, because a memory card is needed like wings on an airplane. Otherwise the phone is very good for its class!

Remember how long ago you got your first phone? This was almost certainly no more than 20 years ago. In those years, telephones were bulky and necessarily push-button. As time passed, smartphones appeared, and traditional phones gradually began to fade into the background. And so we have come to the conclusion that in the last couple of years, smartphones are an order of magnitude ahead of the push-button “oldies” both in sales and in the number of newly developed devices. There are many reasons for this. Smartphones are faster, they have more features, more applications. After all, they make it much nicer and easier to consume content, which is what most people use their phones for.

But there are also people who only need a simple, reliable dialer that will last a couple of days. But finding new devices of this class is extremely difficult. We recommend only proven devices from reliable manufacturers. As usual, they are all collected in our rating.

9 Alcatel 2019G

Best camera
Country: France
Average price: 2190 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5

A push-button phone born in 2019, which is characterized by a powerful camera by mobile phone standards. She has 2 megapixels at her disposal. There are no reviews for this new product yet, so it is unknown how long the 970 mAh battery lasts. Taking into account the 2.4-inch screen and a simple processor, battery life should be at least two days. The manufacturer notes that in order to charge the battery from zero to 100%, it takes three hours.

Memory is limited to 16 MB, and if this is not enough for you, insert a memory card into the slot - up to 32 GB are supported here. The package includes a docking station, so the model will be the best choice for older people who find it difficult to fit a plug into a small connector. In the case of this Alcatel, to charge it is enough to place the phone in the docking station in the form of a stand. The main thing is that the docking station itself is connected to an outlet.

8 INOI 248M

The most beautiful
Country Russia
Average price: 1490 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6

A push-button phone that deserves the title of the most beautiful mobile device of 2019. It has a large 2.4-inch screen and a stylish keyboard. There is even a separate button to turn on the radio. Visually the phone resembles an MP3 player. The metal and plastic body adds visual and tactile value. There is Bluetooth 2.1, one of the most powerful batteries with a capacity of 2050 mAh, and built-in memory of 32 MB.

Reviews say the battery lasts three to four days, and that users were hoping for more. The sound is very loud, and many people choose this model only when they hear what its speaker is capable of. The new product has separate connectors for the charging cable and headphones. This means you can charge your phone and enjoy music at the same time. This is the best beautiful phone for those who care about sound quality and volume.

7 BQ 1806 ART+

Large selection of colors
Country Russia
Average price: 899 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6

An inexpensive mobile phone that has a Bluetooth module. The 800 mAh battery lasts, judging by the reviews of this new product, for two days. The screen is small - 1.77 inches diagonally and with a resolution of 160x128. There is a radio and a 0.1 megapixel camera – just for show. The manufacturer offers a huge range of body colors to choose from - from classic black to elegant sea green.

The phone weighs only 66 g. There is no Internet access, but there is a slot for memory cards. Flash drives up to 32 GB are supported. There is a flashlight. This is an excellent push-button phone for 2019, which has everything you need: support for two SIM cards, small body size, support for polyphonic melodies, 32 MB of RAM. A good option for the elderly and for those who need a second phone exclusively for calls. It is also suitable for children, thanks in large part to the range of bright colors.

6 Nobby 230

The most powerful. There is 3G and GPS
Country Russia
Average price: 1880 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

A push-button phone produced in 2019, which compares favorably with its competitors with a large screen and the presence of 3G and GPS modules. It also has the largest amount of internal memory - 512 MB, and RAM - 256 MB. The battery has a capacity of 2000 mAh, but reviews say that the battery life is not record-breaking - it consistently lasts for three days, no more.

There is also an MP3 player and radio. A camera with a resolution of 0.3 megapixels is needed more for show, although some manage to communicate via video with its help. It’s convenient that the manufacturer preinstalled WhatsApp. The phone not only works on the 3G network, but also can distribute the Internet itself. Having GPS is great, but the module doesn't work correctly, so don't rely too much on location determination. This is the best cellular device of 2019 that can be connected to Wi-Fi. If you need an advanced mobile phone, take this one.

5 Fly FF190

Two separate speakers for talking and listening to music
Country: UK
Average price: 740 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

A very budget phone that justifies the price with its simplicity. The manufacturer tried not to skimp on quality, so it turned out to be one of the best mobile dialers. The good things here: the ability to copy contacts to a memory card, a voice recorder with auto-recording of conversations, a radio without headphones, and a speakerphone. There are four games and no internet at all.

There is a large clock on the screen - for many this turned out to be an important advantage. The earpiece, if not the best, is at least very good. The battery is standard, so you can replace the standard one with a battery from Nokia BL-5C. The dialer reads multimedia files, but there is no internal memory - immediately buy a flash drive to store files. A serious drawback is that the pre-installed games are paid (but the first 5 game sessions are free). This is one of the best cheapest new feature phones of 2019.

4 Digma LINX N331 mini

Best price
Country: UK
Average price: 740 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8

Inexpensive new product in the category of push-button phones. The design is reminiscent of the first mobile phones: rounded corners, small oval buttons, compact dimensions. There is no camera or large screen - its diagonal is only 1.77 inches. But there is support for memory cards, Bluetooth and a radio that plays without connecting a headset. The model weighs 71 grams and encourages you to buy yourself with a pleasant number on the price tag.

Reviews speak positively about the convenient shape of the case, the powerful vibration, and the large volume reserve of the ringing speaker. The keyboard is comfortable, despite the small buttons. Disadvantages: dull sound from the earpiece, cheap display on which you can see individual pixels, not the highest performance capabilities of a single-core processor. The manufacturer offers to buy the push-button device in one of two colors: black and dark blue.

3 BQ 2815 Only

Big screen
Country Russia
Average price: 1591 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8

A stylish push-button phone that differs from its counterparts with a large 2.8-inch diagonal screen. The resolution is good for this size – 320x240. There is no camera here, but the manufacturer installed Bluetooth and implemented an MP3 player and radio. The latter works even without headphones - this is a separate plus. The IPS matrix provides excellent viewing angles and decent color reproduction. The battery has a capacity of 1000 mAh and ensures that the cell phone operates for two to three days without electricity.

Disadvantages that the first owners of the new 2019 product mention in reviews: lack of T9 when typing SMS, the ability to save only 100 contacts, the length of the contact name is limited to only 20 characters. They also complain that you cannot set your own melody for SMS, and the available standard ones are annoying with a beeping tone. Despite this, the mobile phone turned out to be, if not the best, then at least worthy of being in our rating.

2 Philips Xenium E125

Bluetooth presence and best operating time
Country: Netherlands
Average price: 1790 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9

A cell phone with a Bluetooth module and a capacious battery, which, due to its high capacity - 2000 mAh - can last a week without an outlet. The battery is removable, and this is another plus in favor of Philips. This push-button device accepts two SIM cards and has a good camera eye – at least it has one. But the resolution of the module is only 0.1 megapixels, which is barely enough to take portraits of people for linking to contacts.

The built-in memory is 32 MB, and this is enough for traditional files of a push-button phone user. The headphone jack is standard – 3.5 mm. Among the shortcomings that users mention in reviews: the lack of Internet and an indicator that the phone is charged. They also complain that the charger cable is too short - it is a meter long. But here one of the most important advantages, which outshines other cellular competitors, is support for memory cards up to 16 GB.

1 Nokia 210

The most popular
Country: Finland
Average price: 2553 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9

New 2019 from Nokia, which topped the rating of the best push-button phones. The model is in high demand, and all this is thanks not only to the logo with the legendary name. It has a 2.4-inch screen, 16 MB of internal memory, and a powerful 1020 mAh battery. There is an MP3 player and radio. In reviews, users mention high-quality assembly, a flashlight and a convenient shape.

If you need a good dialer for cellular communications, this is a great option. Compared to its competitors, it loses due to its more expensive price and inconvenient menu. But here there is Internet access, implemented through the pre-installed Opera Mini. There is a camera, but it does not shine with photographic abilities - the basic resolution is only 0.3 megapixels. Despite the obvious shortcomings, this mobile phone deserves a high level of popularity and the most flattering user ratings.

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 case 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.

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.

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.

• 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.

Pros:

• Removable and powerful battery.
• Bright 2.4 inch display.
• Availability of FM radio.
• Phone book for 300 names.

Minuses:

• Contacts in the phone book are recorded with one number per name.
• Camera 0.3 MP.
• The earpiece is not very loud, so the phone is unlikely to be suitable for an elderly person. But it will be an excellent companion on a business trip.

5. BQ BQ-3201 Option

Offered for 1,676 rubles.

Fifth place in the ranking of push-button phones is occupied by a beautiful and stylish device. It is the “golden mean” both in price and in capabilities.

Pros:

• Large and bright 3.2 inch screen.

• Loud and clear sound from 2 speakers.
• There is a slot for memory expansion up to 16 GB.
• Capacious 1750 mAh battery.
• There is a backlit keyboard.
• There is a ban on calls from unknown numbers.

Minuses:

• The camera, although better than in the two previous models in the review, is still weak - 1.3 MP.
• There is no automatic key lock.
• There is no equalizer in the MP3 player.

4. Philips Xenium E331

The average price is 4,040 rubles.

If you miss a simple phone “a la the 90s,” then the Philips Xenium E331 is what you need. He can send SMS and call. It also has a manufacturer-added bonus in the form of an FM radio. You can listen to it without headphones.

Unlike its cheaper competitors, this new push-button cell phone of 2018 has GPRS Internet access. A large and clear font on a 2.4-inch screen and good sound will make the device a valuable gift for an elderly relative.

Pros:

• Excellent two-way audibility.
• Removable 1600 mAh battery.
• There is a slot for a 16 GB memory card.
• Good build.

Minuses:

• Inconvenient menu.
• Camera 0.3 MP.
• The phone turns off if you press the red button for more than 1 second. That is, when the conversation ends, the phone will most likely be turned off.
• High price.

3.Nokia 105

The average cost is 1,120 rubles.

Nokia is returning to the good old feature phones with decent build quality. A prime example is the Nokia 105. It's compact and lightweight, so you'll barely feel it in your pocket. It's a great little phone if you just want to use it for calls and texts, and it has a 1.8-inch color screen and FM radio.

Nokia claims the 105 has a battery backup of 35 days, making it ideal for calls and texts. Buy this phone for your children, and they will not be too distracted by games and the Internet on the way to and from school. And its breakdown or loss will not be the end of the world for a single family, unlike an expensive smartphone.

Pros:

• Works for a long time thanks to the 800 mAh battery.
• Loud speaker.
• Beautiful appearance.
• The buttons are pressed softly.
• Simple menu.
• If it falls on the floor, it is unlikely to break.
• There is a blacklist.

Minuses:

• No Internet access.
• There is no camera.
• There are few characters when typing a contact name.
• You can only assign one contact name to each number.

2. LG G360

You can buy it for 4,369 rubles.

The flip phone from the famous South Korean manufacturer has a large 3-inch screen and has a low battery consumption of 950 mAh. In standby mode, according to the manufacturer, the G360 will last up to 20 days. The model's keys are comfortable, easy to press and backlit.

1.Nokia 3310 3G

Available in stores for 3,490 rubles.

Everyone aboard the nostalgia train! Yes, the legendary Nokia 3310 is back with a new indestructible model and the old “Snake”.

The best push-button cell phone of 2018 is not perfect in the rating, but it is ahead of its competitors in cost and capabilities. It has a large 2.4-inch screen for its size, and the operating time from the 1200 mAh battery is 648 hours in standby mode or 40 hours in music listening mode. The built-in memory of 128 MB can be expanded by 32 GB by installing a MicroSD card.

Pros:

• It is possible to access the Network via GPRS or EDGE.
• The battery is removable.
• There is FM radio.
• There is an MP3 player.
• There is a 2 MP camera.
• You can set your own melody for alarms and calls.

Minuses:

• No Wi-Fi.
• The Micro-SIM slot will make it difficult for some users to switch to the 3310 3G as a backup device.
• You can only assign one phone number to one contact.
• Not very loud sound in the speaker.

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.

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.

Nokia 105 (2017)

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.

Nokia 106 (2019)

#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.

Nokia 130 Dual sim (2017)

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.

Nokia 150 Dual sim

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.

Nokia 216 Dual Sim

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.

Nokia 3310 Dual Sim (2017)

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.

Nokia 230 Dual Sim

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.
