Phone has good speakers
Let me address the main issue that was highlighted by many, that is low sound. I was worried before buying this phone thinking about the same. Must say that sound is not at all an issue. There is one trick to overcome low call ringtone. Yes, default ringtone is low so set the custom ringtone from your memory card. Choose the one that has loud sound.Battery: I think 3 days of battery backupBuild Quality: Good but middle button is small, it is hard to click center ok button for a thick thumb guy. Keypad quality is good.Charging: Takes long but no issues since it is keypad you use it mostly for phone callConnectivity: Good and also we can switch off netDisplay: Can use in outdoorSize: DecentSummary: Very good for old age person and also for secondary device.

It’s a niche product in its own sense.
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.

Crap product – here’s why
This is a bad product with major flaws. The back button on the phone I first ordered was not very responsive, and it needed a hard press to register. So I returned it and got a replacement. The replacement was fine initially, but the same problem appeared after a few days. I have to press hard everytime. It’s a design flaw I think.The software is annoying and gets even the most basic stuff wrong. For example, holding down the hash key doesn’t put the phone in silent mode like you would expect, but brings up a menu where you have to manually set the volume to zero. Why even put the silent symbol on the key then?Another annoyance that many others already mentioned is the red end key which locks the phone, this results in unintentional locks almost everytime. Why even have a home screen if you only get to see it for a few milliseconds before the phone locks itself? And I always have to press buttons multiple times to make sure it registered, not to mention the input lag.The d-pad is also very badly designed, if you try to press the select button, you are sure to hit one of the directional buttons instead…Overall, this phone is way overpriced for what it delivers and you would better off avoiding it.

Good phone but feels overpriced.
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.

Classic Nokia Reliability with 4G Support
The Nokia 215 4G is a great feature phone for those who need a simple, durable, and long-lasting device.Pros:✔️ Excellent Battery Life – Easily lasts several days on a single charge.✔️ 4G VoLTE Support – Clear call quality and good network reception.✔️ Durable & Lightweight – Classic Nokia build quality with an ergonomic design.✔️ Wireless FM & Fun Games – No need for earphones to enjoy FM radio, and preloaded games add entertainment.Cons:❌ No Camera – A basic camera would have been useful.❌ Limited Apps – No WhatsApp or social media support, but good for basic usage.❌ Speaker Volume Could Be Better – Call and media sound are decent but not the loudest.Overall, a reliable secondary phone or a great choice for elders who need a simple, easy-to-use device with strong battery life.

Poor and frustrating UI. Very complex to use
The phone has a very complex and incapable UI which always searches in T9 inside contacts typing box and there’s no scope for speed search using keys like in Android and even other feature phones like moto a10. For example, if you want to search for a contact called Manish, 626474 is ll you need to dial straight away from keypad, but this phone sucks in doing that. The default keyboard is T9 even inside contacts which makes searching Indian names a pain. The phone does have useful features such as Oxford dictionary and the best feature being contacts transfer from Android in one go. But all those are wasted because it’ll take 5 mins in order for you to search and call someone. Also if you press the power button to quickly get to home screen, it’ll turn off the screen and lock the keypad. So frustrating this phone.
