google should eliminate android go at all and make some basic requirement like 4 gb of ram to running future versions of android at all,such a low end phone like this one is good for nothing,an e-waste

    There is still second hand market for phones you get with that 70 nails that perform way better in every way. Never mind that it's better to get a feature phone for that price as the tasks it will do is same while feature phone battery last you for a month too while the battery is like 5 time smaller

      Honestly, I have some serious decisions to make will it be this one or Arc as my next phone.

        LOL what a piece of absolute garbage

          julianhadleftthegame, 03 Jan 2025They could've replicate Infinix way like their current... moreYeah, they could have, but for some reason they wanted to make it dirt cheap, so this is the outcome.

            We have Nokia's IP; and reputation, and I know we could do something interesting or innovative, but how about this: We continue to make unmarketable e-waste that no one wants. Different sizes, or form factors? Sure the market is wide open for a sub 6.0 phone but we figured why not make a full size phone with a soc we got in a blind auction of shipping containers that fell overboard off a Bersk freighter ? Small phone may or may not sell, but these definitely won't, so we can continue whatever money laundering shell corp operation HMD is...

              Anonymous, 03 Jan 2025Just like all Android phones.Oh antoher iOuEs fanboy. Tell about apple's unique 120hz display latest and greatest innovation, we love to hear it.

                Anonymous, 03 Jan 2025Yet another trash from this useless HMD brand...."Another trash" is far fatched. They ahad and have quite good devices too.

                  Anonymous, 03 Jan 2025What is the target audience for this device?Children, and people who can't afford more.

Their only 0robpem is the commitment to support them, that could be at least one year longer.

                      This is bottom of the barrel device made up of leftover parts in some Chinese warehouse.

                      Be glad they didnt put a micro-usb port on this thing.

                        After using Nokia c1 2nd edition I can say you better be using a feature phone instead
                        It's painful to use even chrome and poorly optimized google apps don't run well

                            Android Go never was or is popular. A second hand refurbish phone would vastly be better

                                    Now that's a phone that I desire. In my city there is always danger of mobile snatching. This abomination of a phone can be used to trick those snatchers and save your more valuable phone and life

Oh, I didnt realise Australia and NZ are low income countries until you said so.

                                        Not quite a good price. Samsung A06 is not far behind in pricing, and it even has 4+64 of storage.

                                        If your budget is that strict, don't even go for this phone either - find a Galaxy A05 or A04. A05 will get more updates (A04 has similar update support as this, possibly better frequency) and both have better specs than this.
