I bought this phone because I wanted privacy. I don´t need GPS. But there´s a problem. The phone I had before was the 3310 3g. It was a great phone but it was only 3g. So I thought the next logical step was to get the 225 4g. The problem is that I´m using Tracfone with (Verizon sim). Even though this phone is supposed to be unlocked it only connects to 4g during calls if you´re using T-mobile. What´s up with that ? It should be either locked or unlocked. It shouldn´t be advertised as unlocked if it only works with one carrier. Now I have until December to switch phones yet again because Verizon will shut down 3g! It´s a shame because this phone was just what I needed and works really well. But it´s false advertising. Not really unlocked!

Mmmma, 07 Jul 2022The phone runs well but in dual sim the battery drain faste... morewich country does not allow opera mini ? with a single sim and 2g network setting this phone should be able to have up up 19 hours of talking time according to the specifications on the internet, the camera though is far from good.

i like this phone so much that i bought three of them in each colour..if one puts the network setting on 2g the battery-charging will last longer..if the net still runs on 2g that is..

I bought the Nokia 215 and 225 as back-up phones for my car and bike in case I forgot my main phone or was in a poor reception area. Each phone has different network SIM. Dual SIM is great when signals are poor. The 215 is a good basic phone made in Vietnam. But the 225 made in China is absolute rubbish. The operating system is very slow, Typing Contact names takes ages as the key pad does not respond correctly. The 225 will not recognise the Three Network SIM, just get 'Emergency calls only'. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE. BUY THE 215 INSTEAD. I hope this saves you buying rubbish. Kaz.

Cloudz, 03 Jun 2022people these days expect too much from candy bar phones, if... moreCompanies do want the people to use their privacy exploiting and distracting "smart phones" and thus will deliberately not provide features in simpler phones, or leave them lacking, lest they become practical substitute for the latter.
So let people voice their concerns/laments and shut up advocating "smart phones". These phones provide so much for so less (revenues will be generated later for them, of course) that basic phones will always have hard time competing.

I bought Nokia 225 4G recently and I wish to share my brief experience with the handset.
Pros:
Better display
Premium design
Light weight
Ability to rearrange menu icons
Has call recording gunction though not automatic
Synchronises with android contacts
Threaded messages
Cons:
Battery does not last longer
Call droppings even though it has 4G functionality
Slippery in hands
Calling screen_ caller number has bigger font while name of caller is in very small font
Performance is abit laggy
Bottom line:
Nokia 110 4G is better than Nokia 225 4G based on my experience with both handsets. Nokia 110 4G has outstanding performance though it has a tiny display. It also has good battery life.

I’ve been using this phone for a week & am very pleased with it 😃.
The only fault I can find is that i can’t have different ringtones for each sim but hey that’s not a real problem at all I’ve only charged the battery once & that’s when I got the phone & the battery is still going strong !
Id just like to say that some ppl seem to expect a lot from this phone but what you’ve got to remember is it’s a cheap feature phone or as some call it a dumb phone basically this phone is really a text & talk phone you can’t do a lot on the internet so no WhatsApp or you tube & ok the cameras not great but no real great loss for myself !
I’ve given up my iPhone to use this & am loving using predictive text again & I’ve got no worry about ppl trying to attempt to track my details!
Personally myself I think it’s a fun phone you’ve got the classic game of snake & the MP3 player & radio for times of boredom (& being able to add the 32gb sd card a few tunes to be added) & the bonus its not a large phone & fits snuggly in my pocket & a real bonus of 4g 👍 seeing as networks will eventually phase 2g & 3G out if they’ve not done already !
It’s ideal if you go away if you lose it its a cheap handset that can be replaced cheaply instead of paying out to replace a expensive handset I.e iphones etc !
Well done Nokia for bringing back a handset that brings back lots of memories from 20 plus years ago !
For those who are after wi-fi YouTube etc look at the Nokia phones that have the kaios software !
