Nokia takes a unique angle with its latest launch of phones in the form of the 2023 versions of the Nokia 130 and the Nokia 150. Both of these are known as 'dumb phones' and nod to retro elements, dating back to a time before smartphones took over.
The feature phones are designed with the updated software along with familiar elements of the 12-key number pads, a classic headphone jack, microSD card slots, and more. There is also the micro USB charging feature and the iconic Snake game integrated as well. These remind users of a time much less complicated, functioning in a minimal way. These phones also have a bright tonal look of blue or pink.
