With the 2660 I bought in NZ a couple of years ago I cannot work out how to get the shockingly bad phone to call any number without first entering the number and name in contacts - what it says in the manual just doesnt work along with heaps of other things - this is BULLSHIT, Worst Nokkia I have ever had.

The size is good, it feels quite solid, audio is loud and clear, the screen is OK (although there was room for a larger display) and the battery life is decent.
The numeric keys are large and backlit but, especially by comparison, the functional keys are small and crowded. It looks like the main four functional keys were shrunk in order to make room for two additional keys that the targeted customers will probably never use.
I was able to find the setting that makes the phone answer calls by opening the flap and hang up automatically when the flap is closed.
In terms of software and user friendliness, this phone is, unfortunately, a big step back. 20 years ago, Nokia phones had more programmable buttons; more speed dial keys that were easier to use; supported voice tag based dialing and had a much more intuitive user menu. The 2660 is lagging behind seriously on all these aspects.
Also, the side buttons are way too sensitive and placed in such a manner that one must be super careful to not turn off the ringer while opening and closing the flap.

I have a smart phone, but my husband is technologically challenged. He has gone through several Nokias. When he would get a text message with a link, he would forward it to me and I would check it out. Now we bought a Nokia 2660 Flip. Cannot find any option for forwarding! Also cannot find any option to delete all text messages in one go. Nokia's progress is going backwards.

I bought one of these as a cheap spare phone for keeping PAYG spare SIMS alive. I have one that my sone use when he comes to the UK and a non UK SIM which needs occasional use to keep it going.
The phone is mall and light weight. It has one odd feature - the battery seems to run down completely after two weeks - even when the phone has been turned off. This is a definite black mark. If yo want the phone and a spare to keep in a car etc. then beware this problem.

I just got one as a backup phone also for smartphone detox, it's a really great looking phone especially the green one, it gets the job done, stellar battery life, it's just a bit of a shame flip to answer the call can't be enabled,other than that it's totally fine.

I will start by saying that I/we are very disappointed with the Nokia 2660 Flip phone that we recently purchased on the 09/05/2023.
My husband has a condition called Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) which is like Parkinson’s Disease but more severe, and his cognitive responses are getting worse. So, we decided to look for an easier phone for him to use, as he was having difficulties with the Samsung smartphone he currently has. One of the features we were looking for was for the phone to answer a call when flipped open. I asked the salesperson if this phone would do this and was told (I now know) incorrectly that it would be in the setting to do that!
For a start is not easy putting all the details into the phone, but I managed that without too much trouble, although my husband would not have been able to on his own.
To Make a Call – it says type in the number – this is not very good, as most people would not always know the full phone number of the person they want to call – and you at least have to type in 4 – 5 numbers before the names come up from the contacts list to be able to then scroll to select the number required …..
The Up/Down and Right/Left button around the main Select button is too narrow, it is not easy to use, especially for someone with bigger fingers.
The buttons on the right-hand side of the phone – Top button Sound Level and the Bottom button Emergency button are too close together and can easily be pressed when trying to flip the phone open if your finger or thumb are not positioned correctly between the two buttons. It is far too easy to press the top button and decrease the sound level.
The Emergency button is also not easily visible.
So, in summary as I said above, we are very disappointed and not happy with the Nokia 2660 Flip as an alternative phone for my husband, who needs something EASY to use.
IN OUR OPINION, WE HAVE JUST WASTED OUR MONEY BUYING THIS PHONE !
I hope that we will receive some communication from Nokia !!

I like retro-style nokia phones. I bought Nokia 3310 when the modern one was released in 2017 and I started to have a collection of some 4G variants since. Nokia 2660 Flip has a buggy contacts app, Nokia 215 4G's contacts app is better and supports up to 3 numbers per contacts. Don't care if this have a camera or not, I just read messages here and rarely text (I have a smartphone), wanted to delete facebook and games too (or stay unused). But the contacts to be buggy? I have a bluetooth headphones when making/answering calls on my android smartphone, but in this phone I prefer the nostalgia of unclamming it and open contacts app, use search (doesn't work here), place the phone in my ear and clam it again to end the call...
