Some early user opinions testing the '105 4G (2023)' version compared to the previous (2021) similar phone:
Good things:
- A new IPS display panel (wider reading angles, contrast, colors)
- Same large keypad design of the '105 (2023)' 2G new phone
- The GUI/o.s. seems a bit updated like font size, SMS T9 words list, new features
- Power saving options are available and can be configured
- On the air o.s. updates are possible (it requires the MicroSD and internet)
- MicroSD card slot (for software updates and 'theorically' music player..)
- Bluetooth and 1450mAh larger battery
- Games seems installed in full version (?)

Less good things:
- The display backlight should be brighter and having a basic polarizer filter
- Keypad buttons feedback seems just a bit different of the 105 (2023) 2G one
- Font size change is ok but a new font would even be better
- Brighter GUI/Menu themes/colors would be good in future sw upgrades
- On the box is written "MP3 player" but seems the app/codecs aren't visible and/or installed and the voice recorder can't encode MP3 format
- Keypad sound can get boring soon
- Keypad lock as usual unlock (and wake up the display) with the first digit of emergency numbers but compared to the the 2G versions there isn't the same smart timeout logic if that was pressed accidentally; so the number just remains there and the keypad auto lock will wait for the user to solve that, just like the 2021 4G version.

The music player should be the first thing to solve here cause the box says 'Wireless and wired FM radio' and add 'MP3 player' after that and clearly a sw update would be needed. I wasn't expecting the MP3 app but the MicroSD card slot would not be useful without that (beside sw updates, audio recorder).
