Nokia110 4G | Dual SIM | GSM Unlocked Mobile Phone | Volte | Blue | International Version | Not AT&T/Cricket/Verizon Compatible

I’m sitting here with a sense of relief so huge I had to write this down. If you're a parent, and especially if you're co-parenting a middle schooler, you know the dread of the "can I have a smartphone?" conversation. We've been putting it off for a year. This little Nokia is the perfect compromise.I bought it with a new T-Mobile SIM, and honestly, I blocked off my whole Saturday morning expecting a tech support nightmare. But it took, and I'm not exaggerating, less than five minutes. I popped the card in, turned the phone on, and it just worked. We made a test call, sent a text, and that was it. No accounts to create, no app store to disable, just... done.For us, this is the ultimate worry-free solution. Our pre-teen now has a way to get in touch with either of us, check in after school, or coordinate a pickup. What they don't have is unrestricted internet access, social media drama, or a thousand other distractions that a smartphone brings. It's a phone. It calls, it texts, and the battery seems to last forever.It's provided a simple, unified answer for us as co-parents, which is a victory in itself. This is the phone for parents who want their kids to be reachable, not constantly online. A total win.

I am updating this review because the phone performs the basic function of text and calls some of the time, but not always. We got it as an emergency line for our kids, but it randomly shuts off or says it is failed to charge even after the battery has shown full charge. It often doesn't sync up with the cell provider so sometimes you have to call it a few times before it will ring, and sometimes even then it goes straight to voicemail. For the most part it will complete a call that is initiated from it, but receiving calls is a guessing game. I was hoping it would be more reliable, especially for my kids. This phone has been taken very good care of and only used about twice a week, it isn't a matter of being dropped or damage.

I recently got a free line for my phone plan, but the stipulation was that there isn't a free/discount phone with it. Really I didn't need a smart phone, but a basic phone to simply make phone calls and that's it.The Nokia fit my needs perfectly. I have this on T-Mobile and it picks up 4G LTE no problem! It has two sim card slots if you choose to use two numbers on it, but I'm just using the one. I will say it's a pain in the butt if you try to take the SIM out.The other minor bummer is that it's a micro-USB port. In 2025 most things are using USB-C, but it does come with A charger and I have a bunch of Micro-USB at home.The big thing, phone calls, are crisp because it uses VoLTE. I placed calls easily, it answers calls, it can text. The photos obviously aren't going to be anything like my Pixel phone, but it's not meant to be a crazy high def camera.If you need a secondary phone like I do, or you want to see if your child can handle the responsibility of owning a phone, this is a great device. Obviously check with your carrier if the phone works or not (Verizon & AT&T don't from my research and their prepaid carriers). So if you're using T-Mobile, it works great!

I purchased this Nokia to get away from my smartphone. Mission successful! This phone is everything you need and nothing you don’t. The camera is acceptable for the price and style of phone, however do not expect to be able to clearly make out any photos taken. The call quality is fine. I am bugged it cannot play anything more robust than MP3s and the built in music player is not very good, but it does the job. I find it has excellent battery life. Overall, worthwhile purchase.

Since this is only a $40 phone you shouldn't expect much from it. It does what it needs to do. A couple of the negatives of this phone are that the recharging port it's a little difficult to plug in and doesn't always make a good connection. The other thing is the volume of the ringer the lowest setting is still way too loud so it's either off or too loud. Other than that it's pretty much what you would expect.

I paired this phone with an eight dollar unlimited text and call plan from Tello and works great for my middle schooler. I went with this one because it does not have Wi-Fi as many of the other dumb phones do which would defeat our goal of no data. He can text and call just fine. It took a little bit maybe 10 or 15 minutes to initialize with Tello when we first put in the SIM card but now works great. He can only text and call and play the preloaded games like snake and Tetris, which is age-appropriate.
