New push-button phones of the year. The best feature phones

The history of mobile communications began with push-button phones. They were in great demand for one and a half to two decades. And only in the late 2000s they began to be replaced by smartphones with touch screens. But the “button” has not completely disappeared yet. There are a large number of people in the world who do not want to switch to touch controls. It is for them that today’s rating was created, which includes the best phones with.

It is important!

In our material we will talk about simple mobile phones that operate using proprietary firmware. In a separate selection you can get acquainted with. They are equipped with a QWERTY keyboard and use Android as the operating system. As for phones, you can only install Java applications on them, and T9 mode is used for entering text. Also on our website you can read about where this topic is discussed in a little more detail. We cannot help but note the fact that in our selection we will talk about a wide variety of mobile phones. We have mentioned both the cheapest devices, usually used as spares, and more expensive models with slightly wider functionality. We have not forgotten the topic of being able to withstand even the most severe operating conditions.

Fly FF190

Display: 1.77 inches, 160 × 128 pixels
Battery capacity: 1000 mAh
Weight: 71 g

Price: from 570 rubles.

One of the cheapest phones on the market has a lot of unnecessary bells and whistles and the only real plus. This model is a typical budget mobile phone, which is designed to simply make calls. However, for its money, the FF190 offers buyers a 0.1 MP camera with video and photo recording (it’s unnecessary to talk about quality with this resolution), Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP support (improved audio transmission), playback of not only music, but also videos in 3GP, MP4, AVI.

All these features, with the possible exception of improved sound via Bluetooth, are clearly unnecessary. There is hardly a person who wants to shoot something with a virtually useless camera or watch a video on a 1.7-inch screen. On the plus side, for its price, the model has excellent autonomy and has a flashlight.

Advantages:

Flaws:

There is a lot of unnecessary filling that made the model “heavier” - 71 grams, this is not a lot, but compared to devices of similar price and size there is a difference.

BQ 2442 One L+

Display: 2.4 inches, 320 × 240 pixels
Battery capacity: 600 mAh
Weight: 75 g

Price: from 640 rubles.

After its return to the market, the company began making not only interesting smartphones, but also controversial push-button phones. Ambiguous because there are many models, they are practically no different from each other or from competitors, but what is most unpleasant is that they are expensive. Of course, the price is affected by the name of the company and, in fairness, the quality of Nokia is the best of all that, in principle, can be bought in Russia among push-button devices. Nevertheless, from time to time there are curious specimens in the mobile phones of the Finnish company.

The 8110 4G model, as the name implies, received not just Internet support, but even at 4G speed. It may seem that why is this necessary, because the filling is probably sad, everything will slow down. But no, the brand’s engineers understood what they were doing and installed a fairly serious chipset by the standards of push-button phones - Qualcomm MSM8905 with 2 cores of 1.1 MHz. It was supplemented with 512 MB of RAM, which is quite good compared to the traditional 32 MB of all other representatives of the rating, and gave the buyer a 4 GB drive.

The surprises don't end there. The phone has Wi-Fi 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.1. As a cherry on the cake, there is a 2 MP camera. Naturally, in 2019 this sounds funny, but again, it’s a push-button phone. Most representatives of the segment do not have this either. Do not forget that the model is a slider, that is, the buttons are hidden behind a retractable cover. There are two colors - yellow and black. The phone supports 2 SIM. It comes with headphones, which is a nice touch. The battery lasts for a couple of days of operation.

This device was created for those buyers who, for certain reasons, need a push-button device, but at the same time want to not only make calls, but take pictures of something and go online.

Advantages:

Wi-Fi and 4G support.
Interesting case design in bright designs.
Great display.
Powerful hardware for its segment.
Not a bad camera by the standards of feature phones.
4 GB of internal memory.

Flaws:

— the smartphone operating system used is quite crude and there are a lot of lags; the problem can be fixed with updates.

Philips Xenium E181

Display:
Memory size: 32 MB
Battery capacity: 3100 mAh
Weight: 123 g

Price: from 3,390 rub.

Another phone from China Electronics Corporation with . If we consider new push-button phones, the Xenium E181 certainly stands out. While other devices last only one or two days, like modern smartphones, the CEC product lasts four to five days. And if you leave it alone, without using it at all, the charge will run out only after five months! Interestingly, a method of transferring energy to other gadgets is implemented here. It turns out that this model can even be used as a portable battery. And here everything is in order with the characteristics. The device received FM radio and two slots for SIM cards. The device has little built-in memory, but no one will stop you from uploading songs to. On top of that, a mobile phone doesn’t even cost record-breaking amounts of money!

Advantages

Very capacious battery.
Not a bad display.
Not very heavy.
Two slots for SIM cards.
Possibility of installing a microSD card.

Flaws

Very slow Internet.
There is very little built-in memory.
Terrible camera.
The functionality could be wider.

LG G360

Display: 3 inches, TFT, 240 x 320 pixels
Memory size: 20 MB
Battery capacity: 950 mAh
Weight: 133 g

Price: from 4,000 rub.

This one is very beautiful, albeit very simple to make. It offers basic functionality - it doesn't even have access to the World Wide Web. On one part of the device there is a fairly large screen. However, its resolution is far from ideal - pixelation immediately catches the eye. Against this background, the lack of MP3 support would not be surprising. But it is here, songs must be loaded onto a memory card (cards up to 16 GB are supported). The mobile phone has a 1.3 megapixel camera. By 2017 standards, this is ridiculous. But push-button mobile phones rarely get a better module. But the manufacturer could install a more capacious battery - the battery available here is enough for one or two days of battery life.

Advantages

Two slots for SIM cards.
MicroSD memory card supported.
Availability of FM radio.
Loud speaker.
Relatively light weight.

Flaws

Very high cost.
No internet access.
Bad camera.
Low display resolution.

Nokia 130

Display: 1.8 inches, 128 × 160 pixels
Battery capacity: 1020 mAh
Weight: 68 g

Price: from 1,890 rub.

The simplest mobile phone from Nokia. It differs from its competitors in its minimal weight - the “tube” is not felt at all in your pocket. The mobile phone has very modest dimensions. However, this did not stop the manufacturer from additionally creating a dual-SIM version of the phone. There is also a slot for a microSD card. The user cannot do without a memory card, since there is critically little free space for MP3 music and pictures.

The screen installed here displays 65 thousand colors - this is a typical indicator for a simple mobile phone. Surprisingly, the creators have introduced Bluetooth 3.0 support into this device, which allows you to comfortably use a wireless headset. There is also an FM radio. The capacious battery provides up to 13 hours of battery life in talk mode, which can be called a very good indicator. But there is no Internet access here. This means that you will not be able to install additional Java applications or games.

Advantages

Easy to learn;
The speakerphone works well;
MP3 format supported;
Minimum weight;
Low cost;
Capacious contact book;
A simple stereo headset included;
Long-lasting operation on a single charge;
There is a dual-SIM option;
Bluetooth 3.0 supported.

The quiet voice of the interlocutor.

Nokia 3310 (2017)

Display: 2.4 inches, 240 × 320 pixels
Memory size: 16 MB
Battery capacity: 1200 mAh
Weight: 79.6 g

Price: from 3,990 rub.

The reincarnation of Nokia 3310 is a very controversial mobile phone. In fact, the device became popular only because of its name. Yes, this is a very thin mobile phone, and the information on its screen is easy to read even on a bright sunny day. But otherwise its use raises big questions. There is a camera here, but its two-megapixel resolution does not evoke any joyful feelings. In theory, you can install additional Java applications here, but their list is very limited. But what upsets consumers most is the cost. A device with such functionality should cost half as much!

Of course, the device also has positive qualities. For example, Bluetooth 3.0 will provide connection to a wireless headset. A capacious battery should provide several days of operation on a single charge. Well, the memory card slot will help you download a huge amount of MP3 music. There is also an FM radio here.

Advantages

Very small thickness;
Not a bad LCD display;
Support MP3 and FM radio;
Built-in Bluetooth 3.0 technology;
Long work on one charge;
The kit includes a headset;
You can insert a memory card.

Flaws

Worthless camera;
Terribly high cost;
The ability to install applications is very limited;
Quiet speaker;
Strongly simplified firmware.

MAXVI C11

Display: 2.4 inches, TFT, 240 × 320 pixels
Memory size: 32 MB
Battery capacity: 800 mAh
Weight: 80 g

Price: from 1,070 rub.

This dual-SIM mobile phone exists in at least three versions. One is painted green, the other is orange, the third is cherry. They are no longer different from each other. MAXVI C11 is one of those mobile phones that for some reason has a built-in camera. It has a resolution of 1.3 megapixels, which is only acceptable if you are creating a photo for a contact book. Interestingly, the phone has access to the global web, but only through a 2G signal. There is also a built-in slot for a memory card onto which you can put your favorite MP3 songs.

Overall, the MAXVI C11 is a very good phone, which costs less than one and a half thousand rubles. For that kind of money, it is forgiven for the low battery capacity, the minimum amount of internal memory, and other shortcomings. But having a flashlight is a plus for him!

Advantages

The set includes headphones;
You can use a memory card;
Built-in flashlight;
Bright colors of the case;
MP3 format supported;
You can listen to FM radio;
Very low cost.

Flaws

Your memory is very small;
Minimum firmware functionality;
No T9 typing support;
It is impossible to connect a headset (headphones only);
A USB cable may not be included in the package.

Micromax X2400

Display: 2.4 inches, TFT, 240 x 320 pixels
Memory size: 75 Kb
Battery capacity: 2800 mAh
Weight: 89 g

Price: 1990 rub.

This is a very lightweight mobile phone from an Indian manufacturer. We can say that this device is completely devoid of permanent memory. But in reality this is not a problem, since there is support for memory cards up to . The main feature of the device can be considered its attractive design and ease of use. Buyers note that the phone book is best organized here. Otherwise, you shouldn’t expect anything special from such a cheap device. The camera here is very simple, there is not much point in using it. There is not even Wi-Fi here, so you can forget about accessing the global web. You can only be glad that the X2400 does not lack a Bluetooth module, so no one will forbid you to use a wireless headset. It is also worth noting the very capacious battery, which provides three to four days of battery life.

Advantages

Minimum weight;
Capacious battery;
Not a bad screen;
Two SIM card slots;
There is a slot for a memory card;
There is FM radio;
Bluetooth 3.0 support.

Flaws

Terrible camera;
No 3G or Wi-Fi support;
Minimum amount of your memory.

Samsung Metro B350E

Display: 2.4 inches, TFT, 240 x 320 pixels
Memory size: 32 MB
Battery capacity: 1200 mAh
Weight: 89 g

Price: 3990 rub.

Contrary to what many people think, the South Korean company still produces push-button mobile phones in addition to smartphones. Often they don't stand out as anything special. These are simply very light devices used for making calls. The Samsung Metro B350E is exactly such a device. Of the wireless modules, only Bluetooth 2.1 is present here, providing communication with the headset. You can forget about accessing the Internet, since there is not even 3G support here. But the mobile phone turned out to be very cheap! Oddly enough, the South Koreans did not skimp on the camera. Its resolution was 2 megapixels. This is quite enough for photographing bus schedules or something similar. You can even take a photo of a friend to place his image in the phone book.

Advantages

There is FM radio;
Memory cards up to 16 GB are supported;
Minimum weight;
Relatively good display;
Two slots for SIM cards.

Flaws

Weak battery;
No internet access;
Quite a high cost.

BQ BQM-2408 Mexico

Display: 2.4 inches, TFT 240 x 320 pixels
Memory size: 32 MB
Battery capacity: 800 mAh
Weight: 78 g

Price: 1890 rub.

This is one of the lightest mobile phones currently on the market. If you want to get your hands on a device that you barely feel in your hand, then the BQ BQM-2408 Mexico is the best choice. But at the same time, you will have to pay for the fact that the mobile phone will require recharging almost every day. Another important feature is the ability to install four SIM cards here. This allows you to use the services of all major Russian telecom operators! Otherwise, the characteristics of the device are somewhat sad. In particular, there is a camera here, but its resolution does not exceed 0.3 megapixels - it’s surprising that such modules are still produced. It is proposed to access the Internet via EDGE, and this indicates a low data transfer speed.

Advantages

Minimum weight;
Relatively good screen;
Memory cards up to 32 GB are supported;
There is FM radio;
Four slots for SIM cards.

Flaws

The amount of built-in memory is not very large;
Minimum battery life;

The phone book is poorly implemented.

BQ BQM-2000 Baden - Baden

Display: 2 inches, TFT, 176 x 220 pixels
Memory size: 32 MB
Battery capacity: 800 mAh
Weight: 84 g

Price: 2690 rub.

People should like this folding phone the most. This is evidenced at least by the presence of a red SOS button on the case. The device also sounds very loud - it’s quite difficult not to hear the call. The phone also speaks about its purpose by the lack of Internet access. If you want to upload some pictures to the BQ BQM-2000 Baden - Baden, you will have to use a computer. Additionally, the mobile phone has a couple of customizable buttons at its disposal. There is also an auxiliary display. But it only shows the date, time, battery level and signal reception level. If you want to see the name of the caller, you will have to open the phone - only an icon indicating an incoming call is displayed on the auxiliary screen.

Advantages

Clamshell form factor;
Two screens;
Several additional keys;
There is a slot for a memory card;
Availability of SOS button;
Minimum weight.

Flaws

One SIM card slot;
Very poor functionality;
The external screen does not show the subscriber number.

RugGear RG128 Mariner

Display: 2.2 inches, TFT, 176 x 220 pixels
Memory size: 65 KB
Battery capacity: 1400 mAh
Weight: 127 g

Price: 4490 rub.

If you are interested in rugged devices, be sure to look for the RG128 Mariner at your nearest store. This is not a smartphone, so the specs won't impress you. It uses a 2.2-inch screen with a very modest resolution, and the amount of memory makes you immediately stock up on a microSD card. But all this fades into the background when you see the delivery package. There is a wired headset here, which literally saves you in some situations. There will also be two batteries in the box. One is 1400 mAh - it is heavier, the other is 650 mAh - with it the mobile phone stays afloat when it gets into water. In theory, this phone should be able to withstand a variety of abuses. But the low cost makes itself felt. Some elements here are still very vulnerable. For example, the creators did not cover the screen with Gorilla Glass, and therefore soon enough you will find scratches on it. Well, as for the technical characteristics, they are typical for a budget push-button phone.

Advantages

Protection from water, dust and shock;
Quite light weight;
Presence of FM radio;
Bright colors;
Two SIM card slots;
Availability of a slot for a memory card;
Two batteries included.

Flaws

Slow Internet connection;
Minimum screen resolution;
Terrible camera;
There is practically no personal memory.

Video on the topic:

Despite the variety of smartphones on the shelves of our stores, some users need to buy a simple push-button phone. Such models are much more compact, they fit comfortably in the hand, and work up to 10 times longer than their more advanced counterparts. For this reason, the team of the Internet project “Be Mobile” decided to help those who decided to buy a push-button telephone. We have compiled a list of the 15 best models in a wide range of price categories.

As soon as we talk about push-button mobile phones, the legendary Nokia phones come to mind: Nokia 3310, Nokia 3110 and many others. Just 5 years ago, a device that played music from memory cards was considered smart. Now times are completely different.

Nevertheless, push-button phones have a number of undoubted advantages over smartphones. Firstly, phones are much more work longer from the battery. Secondly, telephones much easier to manage, and they hang much less often. Thirdly, phones are much more cheaper sophisticated smartphones. It’s not so offensive to drop them, lose them, or give them to a small child. Fourthly, they more reliable from a security point of view (many more viruses are written for smartphones than for phones).

In general, push-button phones are worth purchasing for older people (grandparents), small children, and people who need a second mobile phone.

Before making your final choice in favor of one or another push-button telephone, we strongly recommend going to the store and trying to “play” with the device. It is better if there is not one, but several. In this case, you will be able to evaluate whether a particular model is suitable for you, how well it meets your expectations and whether it is worth buying. Only then should you make a purchase.

Despite the actual hegemony of touchscreen smartphones, push-button phones are still in demand among a wide range of people. For the most part, buyers appreciate their low price, long battery life and ease of operation (for example, in the cold). Yes, such devices do not have the best cameras or advanced capabilities, but they can offer a number of advantages: reliability, compactness, high autonomy and a long model life cycle. Push-button phones may have turned into niche devices, but they have not lost their buyer at all - many business people or simply unpretentious users choose them.

But, despite the reduction in the segment of push-button phones, it is extremely easy to get confused in the model range of this or that company. This rating will allow you to figure out which devices are the best in their class based on a set of parameters.

The best push-button phones with a classic case: price – quality

These are good phones with a durable body and useful features. We have collected in this category mobile phones that keep a stable connection and are characterized by increased reliability.

3 Micromax X412

Bluetooth and high-capacity battery
Country: India
Average price: 390 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5

A good mobile phone with a convenient compact size. There are many useful functions here, such as transferring contacts via USB, a flashlight, a vibration alert, a calendar, a stopwatch, and even the ability to read books. The cell phone keeps excellent communication and today is one of the best push-button phones with a price of up to 1000 rubles.

The model accommodates two SIM cards. You can listen to music through an audio player and even make backups. The main disadvantages that experienced owners write in reviews are the speaker located on the back cover and therefore producing a dull sound, and the insufficiently bright screen with small viewing angles. There is no camera here, but there is a Bluetooth module. A nice feature is a promising 800 mAh battery, which lasts for seven days with average use of the phone.

2 Alcatel 1066D

High quality build. Thoughtful interface
Country: France
Average price: 915 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6

Excellently assembled push-button monoblock. The phone boasts a durable body made of textured, pleasant-to-touch plastic, convenient button placement and travel, and a strict, laconic design. Even the font and colors of the menu are chosen with taste. The intensity of the screen backlight can be adjusted within a fairly wide range: it is comfortable to read from the display both in bright sun and in the dark.

The settings have everything you need: auto-recording of conversations (to a memory card), blacklist, calculator, organizer, converter, alarm clock, voice recorder and even radio. The interlocutor can be heard well, and you can also be heard perfectly during a telephone conversation. This is one of the best mobile phones in the budget segment. In the reviews, users found only minor shortcomings: a small battery (lasts for two to three days with rare conversations), lack of a vibration signal and slow Internet (enough to send MMS and view the weather forecast, news and public transport schedules).

1 Nokia 3310 Dual Sim (2017)

Best build quality and materials
Country: China
Average price: 3390 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

The original Nokia 3310, introduced to the world in 2000, has become a true legend. Probably everyone has heard about its strength and “survivability”. The 2017 model shares the same name, but does it live up to the name? Oh yeah! Judging by independent tests, the phone has the same properties: it can survive falls, shocks and other abuses without any problems. An extremely necessary feature for a utilitarian “dialer”.

They tried to bring the appearance of the rating leader as close as possible to the old model, but the design looks fresh. Fans of brightness will appreciate the presence of five body color options. I would like to highlight a good camera - 2 megapixels without autofocus take mediocre photos, but competitors cannot offer even that. A regular cell phone without unnecessary bells and whistles awaits us inside. The operating system is simple, but made in a single minimalist style - it looks nice. And yes, the famous “snake” is here. The 1200 mAh battery lasts for about 5-7 days of use.

The best push-button flip phones

In the past decade, flip phones were fashion devices in themselves, and thanks to the efforts of the then market-leading Motorola and the PR campaign for the Razr (and partly Tundra) line, sales of devices of this form factor increased significantly. Over time, the demand for such solutions has faded, but many still value them for their compactness and ease of use - many flip phones have a convenient additional screen that displays the time, date and name/number of the caller. But models with the above-mentioned option are now extremely difficult to find on shelves.

3 Fly F+ Ezzy Trendy1

Best price
Country: UK
Average price: 1610 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5

A simple minimalist cot, which the manufacturer produces in red, white and gray colors. The screen is standard for a compact mobile phone - 2.4 inches diagonal, resolution 320x240. The camera is also quite ordinary - it has a basic 0.3 megapixel. There is Bluetooth, MP3 player and radio.

The 800 mAh battery fully satisfies the battery life – they write in the reviews. But the speakers are not very loud – both conversational and main. Therefore, this push-button telephone is not suitable for elderly people with poor hearing. The device is light and pleasant to the touch. Experienced owners have been using it for more than five years - and to date there have not been a single battery replacement and no serious bugs. This is one of the best inexpensive push-button devices with large buttons and simple controls.

2 BQ 2814 Shell Duo

Additional screen on the lid
A country:
Average price: 2690 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

A stylish folding bed that is sold in different colors. The manufacturer paid enough attention to the design, so this push-button phone looks stylish and fresh even in 2020. The 2.8-inch main screen supports large fonts. On the additional screen with a slightly smaller diagonal - 1.77 inches - you can always see the time.

A large 1200 mAh battery, taking into account the fact that there are two screens in the mobile phone, lasts quite a long time - three to four days with moderately active use of the device. There is a camera with a resolution of 0.3 megapixels, which is enough to capture the schedule at a bus stop, documents printed in large print, and the like. Among the nice features are radio and support for two SIM cards. There are no reviews for this push-button model yet, since it just went on sale.

1 Alcatel 3025X

The most popular
Country: France
Average price: 2700 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9

One of the most popular folding phones, which is not a shame to call the best in its category. Today, this is the best option for those who are looking for an inexpensive and stable mobile phone in a clamshell form factor. The battery is not the largest - with a capacity of 970 mAh, but reviews say that the battery life when working on 2G networks reaches up to a week.

The model is suitable for the elderly - it has large buttons, a simple menu, compact size and good battery life. There is 3G support, so if you want, you can check the weather or go to Facebook. The flip phone only supports one SIM card. The 2.8-inch diagonal screen has a resolution of 320x240. Useful functions: flashlight, organizer, speed dial, Bluetooth and memory card slot.

The best push-button phones with a powerful battery

These are mobile phones that are characterized by record battery life. An ideal option for older people who forget to charge the device on time, and an excellent device for travel purposes when there is no way to connect the phone to an outlet.

2 Digma LINX A230WT 2G

Largest battery (capacity 6000 mAh)
Country: China
Average price: 2990 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

A mobile phone with a brutal design and a record battery capacity for push-button models – 6000 mAh. The battery provides autonomy for up to a month and a half, and with active use you are unlikely to be able to discharge it in a week.

The phone also has a flashlight. Bright and with the best range of light compared to other competitors. The screen is quite large (2.31 inches diagonally) and also bright. Externally, the monoblock looks like an armor-piercing device; you can also find the declared water protection in the model description. In fact, there is no water protection here - even the connectors are not covered with plugs, and the plastic case cannot provide acceptable impact resistance. An unusual feature of a cell phone today is a walkie-talkie. But reviews note that the sound transmitted is very quiet, although the microphone and speakers work perfectly and in other conditions produce loud sound with a good margin.

1 Philips Xenium E580

Record battery life
A country: Netherlands (manufactured in China)
Average price: 4790 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9

A push-button phone that today boasts one of the longest battery life. The battery capacity of 3100 mAh allows you to charge the device once a month if you use it infrequently and for urgent needs. If you indulge in games and frequent calls, the large battery will last for two weeks – that’s what they say in the reviews.

There is also a function to charge other devices from your phone. An OTG cable is not included in the package; you will have to purchase it separately. The maximum charging current that the phone provides is not too high - 460 mAh, so you should only use the power bank function to charge small devices (watches, fitness trackers, headphones), and to charge your smartphone, be patient. The screen has an increased level of brightness compared to previous generations of Xenium. This is an expensive, but high-quality cell phone with a huge battery.

The best push-button phones with a large screen

The presence of a large screen hints at the presence of fonts that are easy to read, so models from this category are suitable for people with vision problems. Also, the phones from the selection will appeal to those who plan to view news from the dialer, carry out correspondence, and even read books.

2 Nokia 230 Dual SIM

High quality case
Country: Finland
Average price: 4594 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8

A classic candy bar from a famous brand. For the price requested by the manufacturer, it is quite possible to buy an inexpensive smartphone, which is why there is a lot of negative feedback on this model. But for those who are looking for a reliable mobile phone without unnecessary hassles, this model will be the best solution. Nokia's biggest mistake is the new software, which is characterized by ill-conceived and complex interface.

In contrast to this are convenient dimensions, a large 2.8-inch screen, a tactilely pleasant body made of metal and plastic, a 2-megapixel camera with flash, polyphony support and a large 1200 mAh battery. The phone lasts 23 hours in talk mode, and the standby time away from a power outlet lasts three weeks.
