Nokia 105 Single SIM Mobile Phone (2017 Edition) - Black

Fantastic basic phone! The Nokia 105 (2017 Edition) is simple, reliable, and does exactly what it’s meant to do. Battery life is excellent — it lasts for days on a single charge — and call quality is clear. It’s lightweight, durable, and very easy to use, making it perfect as a backup phone or for anyone who prefers a no-frills mobile. Great value and classic Nokia reliability!

Easy to use and battery lasts ages.the sound has a slight echo but not too bad.cheap and got a charger with it too.i had one of these before it lasted years.even if it's a second phone it's a reliable back up.

Got this just over a month ago to replace my old, clunky Alcatel that had become unreliable. The 105 is a really basic phone, which is all I need and wanted; as the product descriptions above state, it takes a standard mini-SIM card. No one has mentioned how hard it is to get the back off this phone; it's very tight-fitting and I had to lever it off with a knife blade after breaking my nails trying to prise the plastic cover off. A small thing, perhaps, but frustrating and a little unnecessary – a simple sliding cover design would have been far more convenient. The build of the phone itself is reasonably robust; the plastic body is lightweight and can feel a bit slippery in the hand; although I keep it in a holster, I'm thinking of getting a rubberised casing so that I can grip it better and hopefully save it from damage if I drop it. It's easy enough to use; the SIM was a tight fit, and initial charging took about 3-4 hours but otherwise it's been okay. The rubber keypad is a bit soft and probably won't please everyone, but I adjusted to using it quickly; the screen is fairly bright, clear and of good size, the sounds (only one ring tone) and vibrating alert are loud and effective. It isn't a feature-laden unit as you've probably noted, but it suits me as I don't use my phone much or require anything beyond the basics this phone offers. It's still working from it's first charge and performed well enough the dozen times I've used it over that period. An economical, simple phone; despite some minor issues with the design as I stated, I'm otherwise happy with it.

I had a very disappointing experience with Techstyleuk. I ordered a Nokia mobile expecting decent quality, but what I received was far from acceptable. The phone felt extremely cheap and poorly made, nothing like what you would expect from a reliable brand. The biggest issue was the SIM card slots — they were loose and unsteady, making it difficult to insert the SIM properly and raising concerns about long-term usability. It honestly felt like a defective or substandard product. To make matters worse, when I tried to return the faulty item, I was told that I would have to pay for the return postage myself. This is completely unreasonable given that the product was defective in the first place. Overall, very poor quality product and disappointing customer service. I would not recommend buying from Techstyleuk.

Bought as a second phone as a work phone. Only needed a cheap basic thing with a decent battery that doesn’t need charging all the time. Reviews say it’s cheap and flimsy feeling but it’s a £17 phone and for £17 it’s actually fine. Can’t compare its quality to a £900 one. Used with a Giff Gaff sim and works fine. Easy to set up. Pain to send a text, I forgot how long a message takes without a full keyboard. Ticks all the boxes for what I needed. Can’t fault it.

This is the third nokia 105 that I have owned, they seem to last about 5 to 6 years before they start to have faults, but that is ok considering the price, however this model is really tacky, cheap plastic cover and the touch sensitivity is really poor. the games on this in comparison to older models are awful, and when you look at the menue it seems that they have gone out of there way to cut corners. could do better and I would not mind paying a couple of quid more if they did.

This is what I expected, and a basic plastic phone. The phone is just what I wanted, and I will be using it for competitions or when I have to give my number, but I don't really want to. The phone comes with a charger and instructions; I found better online. There is a dual SIM, and navigating the menu brings back memories of my Nokia from 20+ years ago. It's basic and simple to use.

I bought this phone to replace a 15 year old Nokia that I liked but was getting more reluctant to recharge despite having a new battery and a new charger recently. I am happy with my current contract and wanted to retain the same number so the plan was buy a cheap phone and put the SIM card into it. For probably sound commercial reasons but unknown to me my old SIM did not fit and there were dire warnings in the instructions about fitting the wrong SIM into it. However, a trip to my local phone store fixed that. So it makes calls and I can send texts. That is all I really wanted. The scroll button is imprecise and leaves me stabbing at the back button but, no doubt, I'll get used to it eventually. The insert options in the predictive text had me baffled for a while but that another thing I'll get used to, they seem more cumbersome than the old phone but I was very familiar with that. The keypad lock takes some getting used to too. After being put on hold for a long time by the RAC I'm now fairly relaxed about the battery life. The volume settings are OK. So all in all a success without costing me too much. I can recommend this phone to anyone who wants a mobile that makes calls and texts and has a PC at home if they want to Google something. Oh yes and it has got a flashlight - well that was the real selling point for me.
