Let’s go back to when conversations mattered more than likes and shares. A legendary phone returns with long-lasting battery life and a redesign for the modern era. And of course, it has Snake.
If it's important, they will call or send a message.
We had fewer apps in the '90s. Fewer channels to be present on. But were we less in touch? Remove today's notifications from likes, shares, and comments, and what remains are the conversations with the people who matter most to you.
Long live the symbol
Do you remember when your phone would last for days without charging? And when dropping it didn't make you shudder? Today's Nokia Icon brings that back. So, take it with you for long weekends, festivals, road trips, anywhere - it will go the distance with you.
Snake
Are you ready to beat your high score? Make your return to the pit with everyone's favorite game of all time: Snake.

EDIT just connected it to 4G upgraded to 13.00.17.00
EDIT2 has a BUG in phone calls, if the details view is pressed for some calls (sometimes not always) it shows the date as if they were made in 1980
EDIT3 I got it from a cosmote store same provider for better, but the device does not have VoLTE
EDIT4 I contacted cosmote chat and they activated wificalling equally the photo in call although the setting no longer appears on the device permanently connected to VoLTE
I start with comments I saw
1) automatic keyboard lock with a time limit is not available, it is on or off, BUT if we first go to settings-system-backlight-timeout set for example 40 seconds - then Settings-security-key protection active (there in previous models we set the time limit) then it will automatically lock at 40 seconds when the screen goes off, almost the same
2) changing pin and pin on/off is available, settings-connectivity-dual sim-sim settings-sim1-request and change pin code in there both
3) in unlocking it always goes to the menu, one solution from locked: main button OK or the end call - as soon as the letters unlock appear - continuous pressing on the bottom right # and as soon as it appears press * for unlocking, a very quick click on this key * bottom left and it now unlocks and stays on the standby screen with the time
4) applications can take WhatsApp, YouTube and many cloud (in the Indian market there are many even an application for card payment via SMS) BUT China and Europe have us written off, they do NOT put them in these areas there is a restriction
- A bit difficult quirky in reading SMS if you don't get used to it you won't understand where each one starts if there are many from the same sender
In this model we can move the apps we don't use towards the end or those we want go into the first rows for quicker access
They have also added a color highlight option in the scroll letters of the menu
Records calls
In contact search for example typing will show all contacts with that combination, not just the first letters
I find the menus easily quickly they have added more options in settings in this
The speaker is at the front which serves me better because in previous models (speaker at the back) I had to turn the phone upside down to hear it to wake up if it was on a soft surface like a bed
The good thing about this model is that the USB is type-C which will charge from Android phones if the charger is not available at that moment
Nokia has eliminated notes in the new models but with the simple notepad text from the PC we can create/write in Greek any bank account. Tax ID, social security number, etc., or any notes we should keep in mind and transfer via BT or cable to have on the phone if needed when we are out. The .txt files are read normally. Videos, photos, and songs play clearly/loudly for these small capabilities that the phone has. The 2MP camera will take clear photos and videos to the best of its ability, which is fine for emergencies, like a small accident for safety. The calendar can hold up to 30 events, meaning we can input holidays, birthdays, appointments, doctor visits, times for our medications, etc., which can also sound alarms (besides the alarms) and so on. There is Bluetooth, but music files, songs, and photos can be transferred via USB when connected to a PC for faster transfer. Internet via 4G and the small Opera browser loads pages quickly, but it’s not meant for sitting for hours; if we are out and an emergency occurs, it works to find information if we have saved any news sites. Cosmote has completely eliminated 3G; on 2G, it only works for voice, not internet. By 2028, the voice 2G will be completely shut down, and only 4G/5G will remain, so from now on, any such phone with 4G is a one-way street. The radio plays without headphones, but using a pair catches signals much better; it does not have RDS. Other than that, very nice design, solid construction, good buttons, functionality, and quality; they tell me they can hear me perfectly clearly from other companies
Unfortunately, the phone is disappointing compared to the old NOKIA models.
1. There is no option to change the SIM card PIN.
2. The menu is difficult to use, especially for the elderly.
3. The keyboard locks very quickly and there is no option to adjust it.
The phone is for simple use like all the other Nokia ones.. battery life is 2 to 3 days at most for calls with VoLTE... it is small in the hand not like the 235 which is bigger
It could be better, but in my personal opinion, it falls short in important applications like YouTube and WhatsApp. However, it has a nice appearance, is comfortable, user-friendly, and lightweight...
I have owned and operated NOKIA for the past 25 years, this particular mobile phone is the worst and most dysfunctional phone I have ever held in my hands.
