Nokia 215 4G Dual SIM 4G Keypad Phone with Long Battery Life, Multiplayer Games, Wireless FM Radio and Durable Ergonomic Design | Black

Excellent Phone and simple to use

Worth it

Wanted a Key pad basic phone for my aged mother who is a little shaky due to her age and unable to continue using her smart phone. Having solid experience with legendary Nokia 3310 went for this model as most other models do not support Jio Sim. Build quality: Pathetic as compared to rock solid, reliable 3310. It is a cheap, delicate plastics. Keys are very fragile. Back cover is so flimsy that it may last just 10-15 open and close cycle! Good quality toy phones are of better build quality than this real phone. Not much different from cheap unbranded China phones. Sound quality: Simply Bad. Not sure whether all key pad phone sounds are so bad or this one is particularly bad. There is a huge difference from your usual smart phone. Clarity, Sound Quality, Noise are visibly bad. Network: Yet to check as our home got good connectivity Battery: Seems OK to last 2-3 days with minimal usage. Summary: When a very decent Smartphone is available in 6-8K, these kinds of key pad phone must be priced at 1K. At 2.5K, this phone is absolutely not Value for Money considering poor sound and flimsy build quality. Bottomline is, you do not have any Value for Money option in Key Pad Phone that also support 4G Jio Sim. Update after 2-3 months usage: Phone restarts automatically. Phone restarts when recent call list icon is pressed. Phone hangs frequently. Pathetic phone. Absolutely not recommended. Such poor quality is unimaginable from Nokia. Not sure whether Nokia is taken over by some Chine company.

I've recently bought this handset for a second backup device and tried testing different combinations of sim cards together viz. Jio 4G, Airtel 4G & MTNL Dolphin 3G. Works fine with all 3. NETWORKS: This device supports - 4G(VoLTE)/3G/2G carriers. Can handle Dual 4G VoLTE SIM standby ie. you'll be able to receive calls on both of them, but does not support call-waiting when either of sim is occupied on-call. PS: For people doubtful about Jio 4G (as I was earlier), this phone is working fine with normal Jio 4G plans - both incoming, outgoing & mobile data. BATTERY: Good battery life, works fine 4-5 days on single charge (with normal usage like calls & radio) SOUND: Music Clarity is not very good, but can't expect much from a feature phone, sounds like an old radio. Call Quality through earpiece is also OK (not best) as the incoming voice feels low even at full volume, however on speaker phone it's clear & loud enough. WORTH: Feels a little overpriced at ₹3249/- could've been better at around ₹2000-2500.

✅ Key Highlights: Excellent Battery Backup: Easily lasts 4–5 days on a single charge with regular use. It’s a true power saver—great for people who want to avoid charging phones every day. Clear Call Quality: With 4G VoLTE support, voice clarity is very good, even in areas with weak signals. Works well with Jio and other major networks. User-Friendly: The UI is simple and responsive. Anyone—young or elderly—can use it comfortably without confusion. Strong Build Quality: The phone has a solid, classic Nokia feel. Buttons are tactile and durable. 📱 Who It’s Perfect For: Senior citizens or those who prefer keypad phones. People looking for a secondary phone with strong battery life and network support. ⚠️ Minor Points to Note: No WhatsApp or app support—this is a basic feature phone, not a smartphone. Camera is very basic, suitable only for occasional use.

Works as advertised with a lot of "ifs and buts". The phone lacks a lot of things primarily dual VoLTE support. Battery life is decent only on a single 4G sim; add another SIM and you'll need to charge it daily. There are a lot of companies that bar their employees from carrying a smartphone for several reasons (read security) this is a perfect one for such niche cases cos this lacks a camera!!! The OS could have been better, heck the old Symbian 40 series had more to offer! Not many customising options, but it has a way to sync contacts with android which was a nice bonus feature if you ask me. Thirdly, the old build quality associated with NOKIA is dead let us not beat around the bush and directly HMD Global killed NOKIA's reputation of solid build quality. If you know you need this phone you know. And you don't have many choices in this category.
