    Ribbz, 23 Nov 2023X30 is a heap of crap like all the rubbish HMD churn out.I agree to original opinion and don't agree with You that this phone is crap. This or any Nokia smartphone is low in specs, but they are way cheaper than others and don't include bloatware like others, so with cheap price, lowspecs, they run quite very well for daily basic (not playing games or lower requirements games). If You want more power, than buy midranger for way bigger price.

      Dear HMD Global (Nokia) Please change your charging port to Type C. This is 2023 and your are still fooling your customers around. Almost all Wireless and TWS headphones are Type C. Why can't you ?

You can use them as a standalone LTE hotspot, and KaiOS gives more app support than a usual feature phone OS.

                Good for the nostalgia, but useful are they at this time and age? My 80 year old dad knows how to use his iPhone perfectly fine, and my teenage nepthews wouldn't touch them with a two yard stick.

                            Well still its a best phone when comparing endurance to anything else from much more popular brands like Samsung, Apple, Xiaomi etc.
                            In case of charging speeds they are also way faster and have a lot more durability too.
                            At some points feature phone is always a win win compared to anything else.

                                It's shocking that they are just reaching this position after several years even with the Nokia name and models based out of old Nokia models.

                                    They really should stop making 2G only phones. Those are real ewaste as many countries have shutdown 2G and even 3G. The least they should do is make those phones VoLTE enabled. Seriously, just use KaiOS instead of sticking with software from 2005.
