Nokia 106 Single Sim (2018) TA-1190 Dual-Band (850/1900) Factory GSM Unlocked Feature Phone (International Model)

Does not work on straight talk, cricket, att, etc. T-Mobile is the only one it works on and you have to go to a store to get them to make it work

I have decided to take a No SmartPhone, which would result in less Screen Time (Kind of Forced), and thought that this would help in focusing on what's important in life.When I was in the above mindset I came across this Mobile Device. The price of the device was also encouraging me to take the chance. Initially when I bought the product setting up was a breeze due to the no non-sense approach of pop in the sim & turn on the fone. With few quick setups everything would be ready unless smartphones where you need to do like 10s of setting before getting on the screen.While the phone lasted it helped reduce my screentime. However, the problem started with Charge, after 2-3 weeks of usage the battery started giving up. Typically my experience with Nokia is about great battery life, but this device had the worst battery life compare to the smartphone. Then my next problem started, constantly I was getting No Signal which leads me to my GSM provider to get a new Sim Card. I swapped 3 sim cards in 2 weeks by paying 10$ in total as they gave me the first sim card free but for the next 2, they charged 10$. Even after these SIM swaps, the problem was constant, which then lead to the revelation this is a phone problem, not a sim.Note: I bought a New Phone, not a refurb. Now that my Return time has passed it just a 30$ Paperweight I have

These phones are not unlocked,I lost my money them because I sent them overseas

It’s good enough t if you just need to send a message. It’s just not compatible with my international sim thus the four star.

Ready to ditch your creeper phone? Stay connected with friends and family without a device tracking your every move and listening to your most intimate in-person conversations. Back to basics. Does the job and even plays the snake game you remember from your first Nokia. Don't forget to turn T9 predictive text or text messaging will be a real drag. Reading the other reviews, it seems this phone will not work with many providers, but it definitely works with T-Mobile prepay. No complaints. Does everything you'd expect from a basic phone. Durable, compact and handy.

I've used the same sim card for the last few years. In both iPhones and Samsung. It's always worked fine, but this phone refused to accept it. Doing a little more digging, turns out the frequency may not work with American phone towers... great. Returned it the day after I got it, went to Walmart, and bought one of their phones for the same price. It works great! Don't bother with this phone.

Liked that it met requirements of 'no camera' "no data/internet". Disliked that the SIM card only worked temporarily with the phone. This specific one was purchased 'unlocked' but when you turn it on it shows it's a T-Mobile item. Used SIM card from Boost mobile and when driving from one area and cell tower into another it lost all connections and was no longer useful.

Had to lend my smartphone to a loved one who broke theirs. It's a great phone for temporary use and it does what you would expect: call and text. Check your emails on your computers and get over the fact that it doesn't have internet capabilities.Tetris is a plus. Also, as someone who loves my local radio, it's a nice touch to have that function too.Tl;dr: Text and call works.
