Nokia 3310 3G SIM-Free Feature Phone - Azure Blue

Product Information

Price- this is about as cheap as you can get and still get a well-known brand. I saw a few off brand phones but noticed in the comments people repeatedly complaining that they didn't work in the US. This phone uses a 4G or 5G network which is what most areas require so it works fine. That being said, it's still a cheap phone. If there is any sound around my son when he calls it's difficult for him to hear me or me to hear him. It's also frustrating that there's no easy access volume controls, you have to go through the settings to adjust speaker, ring tone, or app volume.

The phone is just like you remember the candy bar Nokia phones from 20 years ago to be. Not that that is necessarily a good thing in this easy to use smartphone world... but it makes calls and plays 'Snake'.Get more out of your phone with long-lasting battery life and signature sturdiness. Please note this phone has a single SIM slot and uses the operating system Series 30+. I wanted a very basic phone for my 3rd grader so that he could reach me easily but don't want him to have access to the internet (especially social media) yet. I didn't realize how difficult it would be to find a relatively cheap phone that would function purely as a call/text phone. I settled for this Nokia because 1)internet/apps access would at least be difficult, 2)Nokia's are generally known for being sturdy, 3)it's price was decent, and 4)it looked nice. Battery has limited recharge cycles and battery capacity reduces over time. Eventually the battery may need to be replaced. BUT, time passes and the phone and (old full size) SIM card are 2g, which all carriers but T-mobile have sunseted (like 3g phones), and T-mobile is slowly letting die. Service is getting spotty and will eventually go away, even if the phone is still perfectly functional. Mom needs a new phone, but she's tool old to figure out how to use a smartphone (not willing) and the battery on them will die in a day. Need a phone that just makes calls and the battery will last for a week or more plus uses the 4g network that will keep working when 2g goes away and that is this phone. Discover a world of perks that come with 4G, including clearer call quality, seamless sharing, and multiplayer gaming.

Actual speed depends on network and other factors. I looked over other choices and did LOTS of research... be careful since many other cheap phones may not have the T-mobile / USA GSM frequencies (others might only have foreign GSM). Also, some cheaper phones are just 2g phones, so watch out for that. According to internal testing of HMD Global, in live 4G networks a compatible phone has an average data transfer speed of approximately 60 Mbps. In live 5G networks, Nokia XR20 can reach data transfer speeds of up to 1.2 Gbps. the way it looks- the color is a nice saphire blue, my son loves it. The colors on the phone screen are ok- it's a basic pixel kind of phone but I expected that. I do with there were buttons for the volume as well as a button to turn the light/flash on/off. Without those, I don't think it's as functional as it could be. It comes preloaded with some basic old school games- another thing my son loves.sturdiness- not quite as sturdy as the old school Nokia's but not bad. My son has dropped it repeatedly and, in the event the screen has frozen or stopped responding, a hard reset (my removing the battery) has always gotten it working again. It is made of plastic though so I'm sure it can easily get scratched. I bought a screen protector and that has worked so far for the front. Battery life lasts several days despite using the phone (calls and games) for about an hour or two a day. We charge it about once or twice a week and it stays on.

Nokia 5.4 devices are manufactured in India. 1 The 2-day battery testing was conducted using a real-life usage test by HMD Global. The test included active usage of a device for 5 hours per day with a new battery. Usage included e.g. gaming, video streaming, calling, sending sms, browsing and using apps (such as social media, news, navigation and music). The test was conducted with normal device settings in a lit indoor environment. The device was left on standby overnight.
