Nokia235 4G Feature Phone with Bluetooth, MP3 Player, 2MP Camera, Snake and Long Battery Life - Purple

fast service and good phones

This is not a £58 phone, more like a £15 phone. The text on screen is ridiculously large. I wanted to replace my 6303i classic which has a stainless steel outer but this is all plastic and feels like cheap plastic at that. Granted it is 4g and my 6303i is only 2g but I'll stick with it till something better crops up.

Exactly what I wanted, making calls, texting and taking the odd photo. Nice clear display, buttons easy to operate.Nothing fancy, I couldn’t have wanted a better phone.

2024- Got this to replace my Nokia C1. Dont want a smart phone only text and talk. Ideal for that. It has a nice sized screen and buttons. The T9 works fairly well. But compaired to what I would regard as genuine Nokia phone it isnt anywhere near as good for menus and funtion. Its pretty limited.Its texting works by a drop down list that you scroll through which you can add to. You dont have a dedicated sent or recieved text scren, just a conversation one. However compaired to other HMD nokia's its the better one so far. The battery lasts about a week. It has a low battery alarm and a 80% charge funtion.2025- having used this phone for few month now my review stands. However what I have found is that sometimes when texting, you dont get the characters you press whether its dodgy buttons or badT9 dictionary I dont know. The battery still seems to be lasting.

OMG!Is this a fake?Yes, I knew that I'm signing up for a dumb phone, but the keytones on this phone is broken!Even when I set it on zero, the buttons make a horrendously loud noise! Gonna have to return....

I wanted to get this phone to stop myself doomscrolling and spending too much time on social media.The phone looks really nice, it’s plastic so it’s nice and light, and is a very sleek and small form.Typing with T9 is very intuitive and a hit of nostalgia, muscle memory kicked in immediately. It’s a no frills device but as just a phone for texts and messaging, it’s excellent. The sound on it is also decent for this type of phone but I usually keep in on silent anyway.I still have my smartphone and just use it on the side sparingly, the only difference now is that it’s not constantly in my hand and keeping me connected to everything.For how much time this phone has given me back, I’d say it was well worth the £60.

I got this mainly in order to be able to set ringtones for specific contacts, i.e. to set the ringtone to a silent clip and then only enable ringing for priority contacts. It does that, and battery life isn't too bad. Using 4G unavoidably drains battery more than 2/3G. Call sound quality seems better than on original Nokia models.Unfortunately locking the keypad doesn't fully lock it, meaning it can be doing things whilst in a pocket such as enabling the flashlight (which will quickly drain battery) or pressing numbers. For some ludicrous reason it also seems to have hardcoded surveys that can't be disabled, and which kick in regardless of whether the phone is connected to (or has ever been connected to) the internet. It's only done the survey thing once so far, but it's still unacceptable for something like that to interrupt during an emergency. Basically HMD are trading off the Nokia brand and nostalgia without any thought for user experience, and hopefully might get bought again by a company that cares about products.

TRIED FOR AGES TO GET CONTACT LISR RECOGNISED BY MY VW GOLF PHONE DISPLAY, SO COULD NOT ENTER FAVOURITE NUMBER CHICES. SO NO USE TO ME AND RETURNED (VERY EASILY) TO AMAZON
