I went for this phone because I had Nokias in the early days of cel phones and figured Nokia must have made them even better with all that history behind them.
Another commenter has pointed out that its issues might be more the fault of the OS, which may be partly true, but it likely has something to do with Nokia's choices in the implentation of it.
My LEAST favorite things:
1. SLOW
2. Cannot turn off the Lift To Wake Screen function (unlike other phones)
3. Battery Saver is not a 'sticky' setting (as it is on other phones. Must be set EVERY time
4. Therefore, it uses battery too much and needs charging more often than it should, unless the setting is used by turning it on EVERY restart
In its defense, it's affordable and gets the job done, but there's other phones that I like much better.

It's an impressive device for its price range. The build quality is solid, a testament to Nokia's reputation for durable phones. The design is sleek and modern, making it comfortable to hold and easy to use.

The 4xx series is completely capable of running newer versions of Android. Take Nokia's X10, X20 and G50 running Android 14, for example.
Not a surprise why the SD480 is a better chipset overall compared to the 6 series chipsets, despite the lack of 4K recording.

the helio P65 is basically helio G70 and it is different than the P60.

Kavkaz, 11 Jun 2024j5 2016 works better than samsung a31 with helio p60 on bas... moreSamsung has the added disadvantage of bloatware, meaning this phone would be much faster than a Galaxy A31.
The Nokia 2.3 for example, was decent enough for day to day tasks. It had a Helio A22, yet it's faster in comparison to the Galaxy A04 with theoretically better specifications.
Also, the later Snapdragon 4xx series processors aren't bad. The 480 is essentially a 855 with a comparatively weaker ISP.
In the end, the optimization and bloatware decides how well the phone works for the end user.

This phone is the worst phone I've ever owned. I live right next to a cell tower and my service signal is either weak or I don't have any signal at all. I've contacted tracfone to see if they could do anything about it. They can not or will not do anything about it.

Still, it looks like it is slightly faster than Snap 215. I have a Nokia Lumia 640 DS with Snap 400 and 1 GB RAM and it is a brilliant device. Of course Android is a lot more resource hungry than Windows Phone ever was. Anyhow, Nokia / HMD wouldn't do such a stupid thing as release a Snap 410 device in 2023.

If it runs Android GO and has 3/4 Gigs of RAM, classic durable Nokia design, a decent camera and a price less than 100 Euros I'd buy it without hesitation. Currently I'm using Alcatel 1B with Snapdragon 215 and 2 Gigs of RAM with no major problems. Granted I'm on Android 10 GO, however in any case I don't overload my phones with too many useless heavy apps and I don't play games, the basics of telephony it does very well. There is an occasional stutter once in a while but nothing that would get on my nerves. The camera is the weakest point of Alcatel though, which is why a Nokia with Snapdragon 410 and a good camera would be a step up for me.
