The loudest push-button phone of the year. The cheapest push-button phones with a powerful battery
Today it is difficult to imagine life without a smartphone - without all the functionality that it includes. But just some 15–20 years ago, push-button “gadgets” ruled the world. Nowadays, they have almost completely lost their former popularity and have given way to touchscreen phones, but there is still a small number of adherents of good push-button phones - people who do not want to switch to using touchscreen smartphones. It is for such “conservatives” that this rating of push-button phones 2017. This list will help guide people who are choosing a simple dialer, but at the same time practical and reliable.
10. BRAVIS F242 Dialog
Opens the Top 10 best push-button phones of 2017 – BRAVIS F242 Dialog. This model is not distinguished by anything out of the ordinary, but there is nothing to criticize it for either. The battery life is average – the performance is far from the leaders, but you obviously won’t have to complain. It is worth noting a good bright screen with large elements (numbers, icons, fonts). There are two slots for SIM cards. The phone turned out to be pretty good for the money. In addition, BRAVIS F242 Dialog pleases with its simplicity, but at the same time it has the necessary functionality (alarm clock, flashlight, stopwatch, calculator and other functions that are so often useful in life).
9. BQ Mobile BQ-2411 Swift L
The next model in our rating of push-button phones 2017 is BQ Mobile BQ-2411 Swift L. To be honest, this is the most golden mean. There are no catchy “pros” in it, but there are no pressing “cons” either. Therefore, it’s just worth listing its characteristics and noting that it doesn’t have all kinds of “tricks”. Now, as for this phone model: two slots for SIM cards, “average” battery and screen, “standard” memory (with the ability to increase it with a memory card), Bluetooth, several colors. As has already been said, this is the most average phone: neither give nor take. And that’s why it’s in demand - practical and without problems.
8.Fly FF282
A pretty good option among phones with mechanical buttons is the Fly FF282. This model has a characteristic screen size of 2.8 inches, which is larger than the “standard” for push-button mobile phones (2.4 inches). Comfortable keyboard and pleasant appearance coupled with the small thickness of the Fly FF282 have a positive effect on its ease of use. Equipped with Bluetooth, FM radio, 3.5 mm audio jack. Overall, the phone is good, but the overall picture is spoiled by its own memory, which is practically non-existent, and a mediocre camera, the presence of which is more likely to be just for show.
7. SENSEIT L208
SENSEIT L208 will be an excellent choice for those who need to stay constantly in touch - the large battery capacity allows you to keep the phone charged for up to fifty hours of talk time (!). Has two slots for SIM cards. Pros: Bluetooth 3.0, USB, support for multiple audio formats, FM radio. Among the shortcomings, it is worth noting the lack of a camera, Internet access and a small amount of internal memory (which, on the other hand, is compensated by the ability to increase the built-in memory to 32 GB). Among other things, this phone is famous high quality assemblies.
6.AGM M1
Among the majority of good push-button phones, the AGM M1 stands out. First of all, its protection from mechanical damage and exposure to aggressive environments attracts attention. Its body is made of metal and rubber, which allows you to endure all the “hardships” of using the phone even in extreme conditions. But at the same time, this makes it bulkier and heavier than other phones. We are also pleased with the wide functionality of the device and the large capacity of its battery. And, interestingly, the main camera of the AGM M1 is waterproof.
5.Micromax X940
The top five feature phones of 2017 include the Micromax X940. This phone is designed in a minimal style, which is what these days - fashion trend. In addition, the Micromax X940 looks much more stylish than many phones with a mechanical keyboard. In addition to the attractive appearance, it is worth noting the nimble shell, large high quality screen and pleasant operation of the device as a whole. Also, the battery capacity is clearly pleasing – 3000 mAh. This phone even had a place for GPRS and Bluetooth Audio. The downside is that the camera is absolutely useless. But in general, the Micromax X940 is quite good, and also at an affordable price.
4. Nokia 216 Dual Sim
A pretty good option for those for whom the phone is important only as a means of communication - Nokia 216 Dual Sim. This model is available in three colors (blue, blue, black) and has two slots for SIM cards. Nokia 216 Dual Sim is a classic feature phone that holds a charge for a long time, has good speakers, a bright flashlight and display. In addition, the ratio of cost and quality aspects of this device is more than excellent. The disadvantages of this model include limited functionality. But in general, the Nokia 216 Dual Sim is very reliable, and the price-quality ratio is also pleasantly pleasing.
3. BQ Mobile BQ-3201 Option
The undoubted leader in appearance (so to speak) among push-button phones is the BQ Mobile BQ-3201 Option. The brainchild of the Spanish company BQ clearly stands out by this criterion among others of its kind. Attractive appearance big screen, fast shell, metal case and even the presence of a TV tuner! Besides all this, the price for BQ Mobile BQ-3201 Option is more than affordable. In general... there’s not much to complain about in this phone model: high-quality build, reasonable price, catchy appearance - the phone turned out to be quite decent.
2. Nokia 3310 (2017)
Once legendary and known to everyone push-button Nokia 3310 received a second life and a new incarnation in the 2017 restyled version. The phone's advantages include its thin convenient case, good display(good screen visibility even in bright sunlight), long battery life, a slot for a memory card and a headset included, support for MP3, FM radio, Bluetooth 3.0. Among the shortcomings are a weak camera, a noticeably inflated price, severe restrictions on installing applications, a weak speaker and ease of firmware.
1. Philips Xenium E570
And the palm in the ranking of the best push-button phones of 2017 goes to Philips Xenium E570. You can describe it long and hard, but perhaps you need to start with the characteristics: 2.8-inch screen, 2 MP camera, Bluetooth 3.0, USB, FM radio, large battery capacity, 2 SIM card slots and quite a lot of functionality other bells and whistles. The only downside is that the catastrophically small amount of its own memory attracts attention, because a memory card is needed like the wings of an airplane. Otherwise the phone is very good for its class!
Despite the popularity of modern touchscreen smartphones, there are still users who prefer push-button phones. Of course, they are mostly elderly people, but there are also those who simply don’t need any bells and whistles, the main thing is that the phone rings. We analyzed the market and selected the best solutions based on their photo capabilities and autonomy. You can see what came out of this in our rating of feature phones with a good camera and battery for 2018-2019.
No. 7 – Philips E560
Price: 3,539 rubles
The inexpensive Philips E560 is one of the loudest phones in the company's range. If you set the volume on your device to maximum, you are guaranteed to hear a call, even if you are on the subway. At all sound quality the model has excellent conversational dynamics there is no dull sound, plus there is a noise reduction system, so even when talking on the street, your interlocutor will hear only you.
The main advantage of the model is its autonomy. The 3010 mAh battery lasts for one and a half to two weeks. At the same time, you can easily turn the brightness slider to maximum to comfortably use the screen in the sun. As for the 2-megapixel camera, it will come to your aid if you need to take a photo of a book page or some document; you shouldn’t count on anything more. The Philips E560 has no significant shortcomings, but the joystick spoils the operating experience a little. People with thumbs will press adjacent number buttons.
No. 6 – teXet TM-513R
Price: 3,410 rubles
Button phone teXet The TM-513R has a water and shock resistant housing. There are no complaints about the build quality - everything is done conscientiously. The model is very good battery capacity 2570 mAh. This value is enough for the user to have to use the charger no more than once a week. The speaker is also pleasing - the call can be heard even in a noisy place, and when playing melodies you will be surprised by the purity of the sound.
The teXet TM-513R is unlikely to surprise anyone with its photographic capabilities. A 2-megapixel sensor is clearly not enough for those who want to use it to take pictures for their Instagram, but if you have more modest needs, then there will be no complaints about it. More significant drawbacks include the non-standard menu interface, which you will have to get used to at first.
No. 5 – Nokia 3310 Dual Sim
Price: 2,990 rubles
Nokia is one of the few that still pays attention to the segment of inexpensive push-button phones. Her Nokia model The 3310 Dual Sim, released in February last year, stands out from its competitors with its striking appearance. The design of the mobile phone resembles a Tamagotchi or some kind of toy. Moreover, as you can guess from the name, it supports two SIM cards at once.
The 2.4-inch display, surprisingly, has bright and rich colors, as well as good contrast. Also, the Nokia 3310 Dual Sim has a very good battery, which is quite capable of lasting about 5-7 days with active use of the phone. The camera, in general, is standard, what you would expect in a feature phone. True, it clearly lacks autofocus. There are no serious shortcomings that spoil the impression of the model. If there are only shortcomings in the form of a constant “no SIM” message when you do not use a second SIM card, as well as the inability to link two numbers to one contact.
Nokia 3310 Dual Sim
No. 4 – Philips Xenium E570
Price: 4,505 rubles
Philips Xenium E570 will appeal to those who need a mobile phone with good battery. A battery with a capacity of 3610 mAh lasts for an average of one and a half to two weeks of use. If you use the phone extremely rarely, the value can increase up to a month. Also, I would like to note the metal lid. Thanks to it, the Philips Xenium E570 will be able to survive several encounters with asphalt.
The speaker volume will be enough even to hear a call on a busy street. A camera with a 2 MP sensor resolution can produce good results in the presence of sufficient lighting; in its absence there will be a mess of pixels and noise. The model turned out to be really successful, but still not ideal. The disadvantages include a strange interface that does not fit modern standards, as well as rather weak vibration.
Philips Xenium E570
No. 3 – SENSEIT P300
Price: 5,360 rubles
SENSEIT P300 intelligently implements protection against water, dust and shock. Due to this, your mobile phone will serve you for many years. All this time, it will delight you with excellent autonomy, which is provided by a 2500 mAh battery. On average, it will need to be charged once every 10-14 days.
I would also like to note the 2.4-inch screen with a resolution of 400 by 360 pixels. The image on it is surprisingly bright and juicy. Plus, the font used in the interface is large, so older people will not have problems recognizing the text. A 2-megapixel camera is quite enough to capture some important object. The disadvantages of the model include crooked design and unstable firmware.
No. 2 – Nokia 8110 4G
Price: 4,990 rubles
Nokia 8110 4G, made in a slider form factor, resembles a banana in its appearance. This is especially noticeable when the phone is extended. In addition to the non-standard design, the device offers its owner support for 4G networks, as well as a decent level of autonomy. On average, it can last 4-5 days on a single charge.
I would especially like to mention the speaker. Both when talking and when listening to music, it displays clear sound, in this parameter the Nokia 8110 4G can easily compete with modern smartphones. The 2-megapixel camera with LED flash is enough for document photos. On the street you can achieve something with the right lighting, but if you decide to shoot at night, you will be unpleasantly surprised by the detail of the photo. The disadvantages of the device are not comfortable keyboard, although only those with thumbs will encounter this.
#1 – BlackBerry KEY2
Price: 38,500 rubles
BlackBerry KEY2 is a true flagship in the world of feature phones. It has an elegant and stylish business design, so the gadget will look most harmonious in the hands of a businessman. The build quality is at a premium level - the design is reliable, nothing creaks or plays.
The smartphone turned out to be quite good in terms of autonomy. The 3500 mAh battery lasts for two to two and a half days of operation. This is despite the fact that there is a 4.5-inch display with a resolution of 1620 by 1080 pixels, giving a bright picture with natural color rendering and powerful processor Snapdragon 660, which is distinguished by its performance in both games and regular applications.
The photographic capabilities of the BlackBerry KEY2 are represented by a dual main camera of 12+12 MP and an 8-megapixel front camera. Both modules are implemented well, but in our opinion, the rear camera turned out especially well. It has a macro mode, as well as autofocus, and in general, photos are obtained with the correct color balance and a decent level of sharpness. Serious disadvantages include the price. Still, even taking into account the fact that this is a good camera, the cost seems overpriced. Less significant disadvantages include the lack of NFC, support for 5 GHz Wi-Fi and the operation of two SIM cards simultaneously.

We present the top 8 push-button phones that will amaze you with their long battery life - as well as other unexpected advantages, from shock resistance to elegant design.
Philips Xenium E570
Polyphonic long-liver
Let's start with Philips Xenium E570, the latest model in the most popular line of classic mobile phones. We can say that this phone from Philips - push-button and with the most powerful battery in the Xenium line - is indeed the most “long-lived” of those on sale. And it is definitely the most powerful - it has 64 MB of RAM, which is decent for “buttons”.
The device is equipped with a 3160 mAh battery, which provides approximately 2.5 days of operation in use mode and about 5 months in standby mode. Other interesting features include 64-voice polyphonic melodies for those who miss the 2000s, as well as a 2-megapixel camera with flash and a slot for a 32 GB memory card.
SENSEIT L222
Power bank and Bluetooth speaker in the phone case
Let's continue with an unusual novelty SENSEIT L222, which is essentially only one third a cell phone. As for power, this mobile phone is equipped with a MediaTek MT6261 processor and 32 GB RAM, as well as a 4000 mAh battery (day active use, a month without recharging).
Why so little, it would seem? After all, 4000 mAh is enough for an average smartphone for a couple of days. The fact is that the device, in addition to making calls, can be used to recharge other devices (PowerBank function - for this, a microUSB-to-USB cable is included in the kit. In addition, it supports Bluetooth 3.0 and can be used as a . So the battery really can be spent very quickly.
Fly FF249
MP3 player with phone functions
This feature phone with a good battery not only lasts a long time, but also plays music well. Briefly about the capacities: Fly FF429 has MediaTek processor MT6261 at 260 MHz, 32 MB of RAM and a 4000 mAh battery. This capacity is enough for a day of talk time and a month and a half in standby mode.
And for 100 hours of listening to music! For this purpose the device has internal memory as much as 8 GB, which is very rare for “buttons,” and a slot for a memory card of the same size. The built-in audio player supports not only MP3, but also WAV, AAC and FM radio reception. As a bonus, the device includes headphones.
Digma LINX A230WT 2G
Walkie-talkie and spotlight with a monstrous battery
We have already written about the model Digma LINX A230WT, but it is simply impossible to ignore it - the phone causes a wow effect by its very appearance. IN in this case Let's note it as a push-button phone with a good battery - it has as much as 6000 mAh, which in this case means a day in talk mode and a month in standby mode - although according to reviews from those who bought it, this is the most modest minimum. The model is equipped with a MediaTek MT6261 processor and 32 MB of RAM.
This phone also has a power bank function, and in addition, in principle, it is positioned as a device for working in field conditions. It has a built-in walkie-talkie with a retractable antenna, and an unusual powerful flashlight, comparable to portable floodlights. Employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, security guards, LizaAlert volunteers and everyone else who needs communication in the dark should be issued such phones as part of government procurement.
BQ Tank Power
Reliable, with two lights and power bank
Alternatively, in a procurement tender best phone for field conditions can participate BQ Tank Power. In the competition between the best feature phones with a good battery, it is somewhat inferior to the previous candidate, since its battery is only 4000 mAh. But on the other hand, it is spent more slowly - the device is not overloaded with unnecessary software features.
The design of the phone focuses on shock resistance: it has a shockproof sealed case, large mechanical buttons and thick glass. In addition, the device has two flashlights for all-round illumination and a Powerbank function for recharging less durable devices.
MAXVI P11
Three SIM cards, loud sound and big battery
Why is this incomprehensible device from an unknown manufacturer so attractive to Yandex.Market users, we were perplexed until we decided to look into the specifications MAXVI P11. We found a 3100 mAh battery there, which in terms of operating time means only 18 hours of talk time and 25 days without recharging.
But the device turned out to support three (!!!) SIM cards! It turned out that it is taken by users who have several SIM cards from different operators to provide yourself with free calls to the numbers of all the Big Three. This is the way to break the system. In addition, the phone has a large speaker and makes really loud calls.
INTEX Ultra Selfie
A toy selfie camera and not at all childish capabilities
Telephone INTEX Ultra Selfie It gave us a childish impression. This is indicated by the manufacturer’s separately marked 0.31, which is safe for children’s eyes. Plus, unlike most buttons, it has a front-facing camera (and even a separate button for taking selfies). Like the rear one, it is weak - only 0.3 megapixels. But perhaps they put it there to allow children to play on Instagram?
Push-button cell phones gave way to smartphones in popularity in Russia 3 years ago (in 2014), and in recent years sales of push-button phones have been constantly declining. However, it is too early to discount them. In 2016, in Russia, according to J’son & Partners Consulting, 10.8 million push-button phones were sold, this amounted to 29% of total sales of mobile phones (for comparison: smartphones in 2016 at Russian market 26.4 million units were sold). For the most part push-button models Older people use phones. There are also young people who specifically buy push-button cell phones so as not to waste time on social networks, games and other delights of smartphones, and to use the phone only for its intended purpose - to make and receive calls. Parents who care that their child does not sit on a smartphone during classes and after them, but is engaged in studying, also buy push-button mobile phones for their children. Finally, a push-button phone can become a temporary phone for calls if the smartphone has to be taken to a service center for repairs or during a trip when there is no way to charge the smartphone, and a push-button phone, as a rule, holds a charge longer than the average smartphone. The main advantage of push-button phones is their low price, accessible to everyone. The average price of a push-button telephone in Russia is 1.7 thousand rubles, while average price a smartphone is 7 times more - 12.1 thousand rubles.
In this rating, we will look at the best push-button mobile phones for 2017, which received good reviews in Yandex Market. When placing places in the rating, technical characteristics and the price-quality ratio were also taken into account.
Nokia 105 (2017)
The average price is 1,350 rubles. The mobile phone of summer 2017 received 41% of fives in Yandex Market and 74% of recommendations for purchase. Today this is the third most popular Nokia push-button phone (Yandex Market data).
Technical characteristics: 1.8-inch 160x120 screen, without camera, support for one SIM card. Time battery life talk time - 15 hours.
From reviews:
"Nokia's design is all right - especially now, when every second person has a black rectangle, only the logo on the back cover is different for everyone. After this handset, my smartphone seemed uncomfortable, cold, empty and heavy. I look at Nokia and just get a kick out of it lies in the hand, in the car, on the table. Light as a feather, fits in a lighter pocket in jeans. Definitely + for appearance and tactile sensations.
Excellent call quality!
Unexpectedly simple. I was trying to figure out how to turn on airplane mode at night, but it turned out that you just need to turn off the phone, SHOCK! It turns on/off in about 5 seconds. In the morning the alarm clock rang with the phone turned off - I had already forgotten these simple joys.
What else? Compared to the old 3310 there is a flashlight, calendar, radio and a standard charging connector
According to the instructions, a new battery needs to be completely discharged, then charged for 12/24 hours and completely discharged again. And so 3-5 times, then the battery will last longer. It took me 2 weeks after charging before the phone started reporting that the battery was low - naturally at the most inconvenient moment, but the phone continued to work! I called and was surprised. On the 3rd day, I decided to “help” him, turned on the flashlight and forgot about the phone for 3.5 hours, but it continued to work, then I also turned on the radio through the speakerphone - it worked for another 2 hours."
7th place.

From reviews:
"Lightweight, compact, holds a charge for a long time. T9 works perfectly. Although the flashlight is not very bright, the power button is very conveniently designed and can be used in two combinations. No Internet (for me this is a plus). Great sound in the microphone, the interlocutor can be heard clearly and I can be heard clearly.
In general, the rating for this phone among other rubbish is 5, and the rating for what Nokia should do, and even for that kind of money, is 3, so I give it an average 4. I bought it for my mother - it’s all for her ideal option- nothing superfluous. I wanted the same one as a dialer, but now I don’t even know without bluetooth and some other functions. The unpleasant thing is that among the rubbish that is now being sold, there is not even anything to choose from, even Samsung has stopped making normal ones. Of all the push-button devices, Nokia is the only one that I liked the conversational speakers."
6th place.
LEXAND A4 Big
The average price is 1,066 rubles. This mobile phone scored 67% of fives according to reviews in Yandex Market. Technical characteristics: 2.8-inch screen 320x240, has a camera, support for two SIM cards, mp3 support, talk time 4 hours, standby time 4 days.
From reviews: "The phone itself is convenient and light. In addition, the plus is that the battery lasts quite a long time.

In addition, the call is loud , in a noisy place you can hear quite a bit."
Nokia 216 Dual SIM
The average price is 2,800 rubles. The push-button phone, which went on sale in October 2016, received 29% of five reviews in Yandex Market and 48% of recommendations for purchase.

From reviews:
“When you don’t have a smartphone at hand, and you’re somewhere outside the city or somewhere at a resort, for example, it wouldn’t be such a shame to lose it in any case - it can go online, even if only somehow through Opera with 2G , but still, with normal ears, it’s good to listen to music and take a picture of something.
And the main thing is that you won’t be afraid that the battery will run out like on a smartphone! I recommend it if you decide to buy it."
SENSEIT P300
The average price is 5,990 rubles. The new product of 2017 currently has 64% of reviews in Yandex Market and 100% of recommendations for purchase.

From reviews:
"The weight is optimal. Not a toy or a brick in your pocket.
The display is bright and clear. Contrasting colors. Enhancing the richness of flowers. The color scheme of the display style is strict without frills.
Battery capacity 1200 mAh. If it works as advertised, it's great for a phone with 1 SIM card.
Loud call signal. Distinct. If the environment is noisy, put an earphone in your left ear, everything can be solved. The music is delicious. I checked how the radio was playing, good headphones- Wonderful.
The price is normal. Moans about the price from those who don't remember. And Nokia has always been 2-2.5 times more expensive than its counterparts from China. This is the “good - above average” product segment. European quality and the price is right. By the way, the device is not from China. Collected in Vietnam. Inside under the battery it says Finland.
The menu is simple, I looked through it and studied it in 5 minutes.
The font is easy to read and easy on the eyes. SMS messages come in windows with white text on a discreet orange background.
In standby mode, simply pressing the button on the right, on a locked phone, gives a clear large inscription “screen time” and a small battery in the upper right corner - “charge level”. I'm in awe, such a strict classic. Nothing extra."

One of the simplest devices in our rating. It is also the cheapest - in some stores it can be purchased for only 690 rubles. This is also a rare case when a push-button mobile phone is offered in two color options - black and white.
This phone is very small and light. At the same time, there was room inside for two SIM cards. There is no microSD card slot here. It is simply not required, since the product does not support MP3 music, not to mention any other media files. However, the owner of this mobile phone will still be able to listen to music - through the built-in FM radio. It's funny that most of the devices included in our selection are equipped with it.
With such functionality, a push-button device could easily have a monochrome display. However, the manufacturer was still generous with a color screen, the diagonal of which is 1.8 inches and the resolution is 126x160 pixels. He also introduced a flashlight into his creation. However, it is not recommended to use it actively, because the capacity of the battery present here is only 400 mAh. Strictly speaking, it is the battery that is the main drawback of the device - its full charge is only enough for three hours of talk time. Therefore, this is not best choice for a person accustomed to conversations in large volumes. But in standby mode the phone can last a couple of days; in this regard, there are no serious complaints about it.
Advantages
- Two SIM card slots;
- Built-in flashlight;
- There is FM radio;
- Miniature sizes;
- Weight barely reaches 63 g;
- A price tag affordable for almost everyone.
Flaws
- Extremely low battery capacity;
- No MP3 support;
- Low screen resolution;
- No camera.
Push-button telephone with QWERTY keyboard and Wi-Fi module
In fact, this is a smartphone, not a phone, because it runs a full-fledged BlackBerry OS operating system. However, it couldn’t help but get into our rating, because the device’s firmware is much inferior to Android in terms of the capabilities it offers, so many people mistake this device for a traditional mobile phone, complemented by a QWERTY keyboard. Only a very expensive mobile phone, because its cost varies from 13 to 20 thousand rubles. And this is a phone that does not have official guarantee- This is due to the fact that the BlackBerry brand is present on the Russian market exclusively on an unofficial basis.
None of the devices in our rating has a display with such a high resolution. 720x720 pixels - with a modest 3.1-inch diagonal, this results in a pixel density of 328 PPI. This is an excellent result that, for example, many budget smartphones cannot boast of. Another good thing is that the screen was created using AMOLED technology. This means that the buyer can expect perfect black colors; the lack of backlighting is especially noticeable in the dark. This display also has low power consumption.
Below the screen is a convenient QWERTY keyboard. But to control the operating system it is not necessary to use it exclusively - the display here is touch-sensitive, in this regard the BlackBerry Q10 is no different from all others modern smartphones. You can also see the front camera on the front side of the push-button device. But this device is designed for business man, so this element definitely won’t help in taking high-quality selfies - the camera performs well only in organizing video communications. By the way, you can talk to your interlocutor using a wired or wireless headset - there is both a 3.5 mm audio jack and Bluetooth 4.0. The presence of an NFC chip looks completely unexpected.
There is an 8-megapixel camera lens on the back of the device. There are not enough stars in the sky, but with its help you can shoot video with Full HD resolution. The quality is far from what the rear cameras of smartphones are capable of. But if we talk about the representatives of our rating, they do not offer anything like that. And it’s not surprising, because they don’t have a dual-core processor with a clock speed of 1.5 GHz. Also under the body of this QWERTY phone there are 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage. permanent memory. In short, it’s difficult to find fault with the device. The only thing buyers lack is a fingerprint scanner - it seems to us that such an expensive gadget must have one.
Advantages
- Powerful processor;
- Convenient QWERTY keyboard;
- Wonderful AMOLED display;
- There are LTE, Wi-Fi, NFC and Bluetooth 4.0 modules;
- Decent rear camera;
- Long battery life;
- There is a slot for microSD;
- Large memory capacity;
- It is possible to install additional applications.
Flaws
- No fingerprint sensor;
- There is only one SIM card slot built in;
- Many specific BlackBerry services no longer work;
- Very high cost.
The best push-button phones with a classic case
At one time, the reincarnation of Nokia 3310 caused a strong reaction from both ordinary people, as well as from professionals involved in reviews of various electronic equipment. HMD Global took as a basis classic model, significantly transforming it, making it more modern. For example, the 2017 product received a 2.4-inch color screen with a resolution of 320x240 pixels. Text and icons are clearly visible even under the bright sun - not every mobile phone can boast of this. And the new version of Nokia 3310 has a two-megapixel camera, with which you can take a photo of a person in order to place his face in the contact book. For such pictures, 20 MB of permanent memory are allocated. If you want to use the device as an MP3 player, you will have to get a microSD card.
Such a phone could not but include FM radio. However, remember that it only works when you connect headphones - they will act as an antenna. The product also has a Bluetooth 3.0 module, which is used for synchronization with wireless headsets. The mobile phone also offers access to the Internet - EDGE technology is used for this purpose. A flashlight can also make someone happy.
Perhaps the Nokia 3310 (2017) should suit every buyer. Especially those who understand that they are purchasing a mobile phone, not a smartphone. In a word, it’s not for nothing that a push-button telephone made it into our rating. And don’t forget that you can find two versions of the device in stores - they differ in the number of SIM card slots. And don’t expect this device to be indestructible - in this regard, it differs from its prototype only for the worse.
Advantages
- There is a simple camera;
- Enough for a long time autonomous operation;
- There is a flashlight;
- The memory card slot has not been forgotten;
- There is an FM radio;
- Bright colors of the case;
- Good LCD display;
- Internet access is possible.
Flaws
- The sizes may seem too large;
- Not best speaker;
- The price tag cannot be called low;
- There are problems with the text input language.
Another mobile phone made by the Chinese, but already distributed under the Philips brand. This push-button device also supports the installation of two SIM cards - a single-SIM version of this model simply does not exist. And here, too, there is a Bluetooth module, with which a wireless headset is connected.
When you look at the phone, it immediately becomes clear that it is primarily intended for older people. This is what he says large font, which is used to write the numbers on the keys. They will like the light weight of the device, which is no more than 112 g. They will also appreciate the 2.4-inch display, the resolution of which is 320x240 pixels. On such a screen, all menu lines are clearly visible, even if a person has vision problems. It should be noted that there is an MP3 player here. You can also play MP3 music on a call. There is also an FM radio here. Interestingly, you can activate it even without connecting headphones - the radio has a built-in antenna. This is a rare feature that almost all other devices we have reviewed are deprived of.
Otherwise, this is a typical mobile phone. The user has 3.8 MB of internal memory available here, so music and pictures will have to be downloaded to microSD card. By the way, it is best to do this using a computer. Of course, the Philips Xenium E331 can also access the Internet, but for this it uses a simple GPRS module - the speed is only enough to load WAP sites. We also don't recommend using the camera - it only has 0.3 megapixel resolution. I'm glad that nothing bad can be said about the battery - the 1600 mAh capacity is enough for many hours of battery life. However, the Xenium line of phones is known for its long-lasting performance.
Advantages
- Bluetooth 2.1 available;
- For a long time work;
- Light weight;
- There are two SIM card slots;
- Excellent LCD display;
- It is possible to listen to MP3 music;
- There is an FM radio that does not require headphones;
- The kit includes a cradle.
Flaws
- Bad camera;
- Difficulties with choosing the Russian language when writing SMS;
- Inconvenient editing of contacts;
- No flashlight;
- The phone is not cheap.
One of the most available phones in our rating. IN Russian stores they ask for no more than 1,700 rubles, and often you can buy it for much less money. This device is very compact, and its weight does not exceed an insignificant 90 g. At the same time, there was a place inside it for a Bluetooth module, which not every push-button phone receives. But the SIM card slot is installed in a single copy, and this is the main drawback of this device. Which, however, is quite possible to come to terms with.
Three color versions of Alcatel 2008G went on sale. In any case, the case will be made of plastic, and the front panel will be occupied by a keyboard and a 2.4-inch LCD display. The resolution of the latter is 320x240 pixels, and the pixel density here reaches 167 PPI. In a word, it is impossible to find fault with the screen. As well as the camera, the resolution of which reaches 2 megapixels. Of course, for video shooting this parameter is extremely small, but such a camera provides quite decent pictures for a contact book.
This mobile phone recognizes MP3 music without any problems. It must be contained on a memory card, since the amount of built-in storage available to the user is only 5 MB. On the body of the device you can find a 3.5 mm audio jack. You can also output sound to a wireless headset using the Bluetooth 3.0 module. You can also listen to music using the built-in radio, which does not require headphones - the creators have equipped it with its own antenna.
Perhaps this phone represents the optimal combination of price and characteristics. The push-button phone even has an SOS button, which can be very useful in certain conditions. It remains to add that the capacity of the battery used here is 1400 mAh.
Advantages
- The kit includes a cradle;
- The screen has high resolution;
- Very light weight;
- There is an SOS button on the body;
- Memory card installation available;
- There is an MP3 player;
- There is an FM radio that does not require headphones;
- There is a Bluetooth module;
- Three colors to choose from.
Flaws
- Only one SIM card slot;
- Confusing menu (the device is not recommended for elderly people);
- Flashlight missing;
- Not the best earpiece speaker.
The phone is quite easy to use. Its release began at the time when Nokia belonged to Microsoft. It seems that the manufacturer had some problems with money, and therefore the mobile phone received very weak components. For example, the menu here is displayed on a 1.8-inch LCD display, the resolution of which is only 160x128 pixels. This alone prevents us from recommending such a purchase to older people. The savings are also felt by the fact that the device does not have a camera. At all! This means that the contact book will be without photos - when there is an incoming call, only the name will be displayed.
One would expect that such a device would not receive support for MP3 ringtones. However, the manufacturer did not save money in this regard. Moreover, MP3 music can be output to a wireless headset - for this, use bluetooth technology 3.0. If you don’t have such an accessory, you can get by with wired headphones - the 3.5 mm audio jack is still there. By the way, you will need to connect them and, if necessary, listen to FM radio.
The mobile phone turned out to be almost weightless; it is one of the lightest phones in our rating. It’s also good to see that there are at least two color versions of the device on sale - with red and black casings. But one slot for a SIM card will seem nonsense to some. However, the phone cannot access the Internet, so there is little point in combining the two tariffs. The device can also boast of having a slot for a memory card - a maximum copy of 32 GB is supported. Autonomous operation of the phone is ensured by the familiar BL-5C battery, the capacity of which is 1020 mAh. The manufacturer promises that this is enough for 13 hours of continuous talk.
Advantages
- Weight does not exceed 68 g;
- Decent battery life;
- Built-in FM radio;
- There is support for Bluetooth headsets;
- MP3 music can be played;
- Two body colors are available;
- There is a slot for a memory card;
- The kit includes a simple stereo headset.
Flaws
- The screen has low resolution;
- The alarm volume does not change;
- There is no camera (does not apply to all copies);
- No internet access;
- There is only one SIM card slot;
- Organization phone book seems uncomfortable.
The best feature phones with a good camera
One of the most expensive push-button devices in our rating, if we talk exclusively about phones. In Russian retail, the LG G360 costs approximately 4,300 rubles. At the same time, they offer to purchase the device in one of two colors - red and black. The high cost is due to excellent quality product - this mobile phone will definitely not break in the next one and a half to two years of use. The form factor also influenced the price tag. The fact is that this is a clamshell, albeit without an additional display on the top panel.
If you open the device, you can access the 3-inch screen. Its resolution is 320x240 pixels. Even a person with impaired vision can discern what is happening on the display, which is good news. However, a person with good eyesight will immediately draw attention to pixelation, and this is not good. It also uses a very large keyboard - this is already a plus.
Under the back cover is the usual for such devices removable battery. Its capacity is 950 mAh, which is enough for most users. The phone also has two slots for SIM cards. This option is useful if you have both a home and work number. Some people will also find the rear camera useful. Its resolution is 1.3 megapixels. This is a very good parameter, rarely found in push-button mobile phones. It would be a shame not to use such a camera for photographing people in your contact book. By the way, 20 MB of internal memory are allocated here for saving images. If this is not enough, you can always use a memory card of up to 16 GB. You will also have to install it if you want to listen to MP3 music. The sound, by the way, can be output not only to wired, but also to Bluetooth headphones.
Advantages
- The phone is designed as a clamshell;
- You can insert a memory card;
- High reliability;
- Decent LCD display;
- There is a good rear camera;
- The device has a Bluetooth 2.1 module;
- Built-in FM radio;
- There is MP3 support;
- There are two slots for SIM cards;
- Very long battery life.
Flaws
- High cost;
- There is no external display;
- Inconvenient section with SMS messages.
This phone looks quite stylish, although it belongs to the traditional candy bar form factor. On its front panel there was room for the keyboard, the manufacturer's logo and a 2.4-inch display. The resolution of the latter is 320x240 pixels, thanks to which a large number of icons and menu items can be placed on it. On the back side you can find a fairly large lens belonging to a two-megapixel camera. It can take good pictures, and if desired, it can also be used to record video (but of very lousy quality). Moreover, the camera is equipped with an LED flash, which is rare for a modern feature phone.
Of course, such an expensive push-button device could not do without support for MP3 music. It should be uploaded to a memory card - the maximum mobile phone can recognize is a 32 GB drive. The phone cannot access the Internet on its own, so to download songs you will need a computer, tablet or smartphone. Sound can be output either to headphones or a Bluetooth headset. Or use the built-in speaker, which is also used for speakerphone.
The device turned out to be quite decent. It's definitely worth the money. Some may not like the fact that there is only one color - exclusively black. But the device has two slots for SIM cards. As for the weight, it is 138 g - quite decent for a modern “button”.
Advantages
- There is a slot for a memory card;
- High reliability;
- Good rear camera, complemented by flash;
- The battery capacity reaches 3100 mAh;
- Very good LCD display;
- Implemented support for MP3 music;
- There is an FM radio;
- You can insert two SIM cards;
- There is Bluetooth.
Flaws
- The cost cannot be called low;
- No internet access;
- The device turned out to be heavy.
This mobile phone immediately attracts attention. Many consumers are attracted by the LCD display installed here, the diagonal of which reaches 3.2 inches. Screen resolution is 240x320 pixels, pixelation is not noticeable. Under the screen there is a place for numerous keys, with the help of which dialing and menu control are implemented. If you look at back panel, then a fairly large lens immediately stands out here. Underneath is a sensor with a resolution of 1.3 megapixels. If the task is to photograph a person for a contact book, then the camera will definitely cope with it. But not in the dark, because this phone does not have a flash.
The device is available in two color options. Like most mobile phones currently existing, it supports working with a pair of SIM cards. There is also a slot for a memory card, the volume of which should not exceed 16 GB. Basically, the drive will be needed to listen to MP3 music, because uploading such melodies to the built-in memory is pointless - 30 MB is only enough for a couple of tracks. By the way, the user will also be able to listen to FM radio. Moreover, the phone has a TV tuner! But only analog. When will our country completely switch to digital format DVB-T2, this option will become useless.
It should be noted that this mobile phone cannot access the Internet. And it made it into our rating not only thanks to its camera and screen, but also due to its very capacious battery. In a word, the device is definitely worth its two thousand rubles. As long as you are willing to accept the fact that some people will hear your conversation. The fact is that the device does not have a front speaker. That is, during a conversation the rear speaker works, just at low volume.
Advantages
- Not a bad camera, although without a flash;
- There is Bluetooth;
- Adequate price tag;
- Weight does not exceed 116 g;
- The microSD slot has not been forgotten;
- Installation of two SIM cards is available;
- There are FM radio and TV tuner;
- Very decent LCD display;
- Two body colors to choose from;
- The battery capacity is 1750 mAh.
Flaws
- Can't go online;
- The conversation is conducted through the rear speaker.
The best push-button phones with a powerful battery
It was Philips that at one time began to equip its phones with a capacious battery. Since then, the Chinese have received the rights to the brand, but the situation has not changed - many mobile phones from the Xenium series still receive a capacious battery. For example, the Philips Xenium E570 includes a battery with a capacity of 3160 mAh. With it, even with regular conversations, you will only have to use chargers once every few days or even a week.
But the device is unique not only for its battery. The manufacturer endowed his creation with built-in memory of 133 MB. Unless you want to turn your phone into an MP3 player, you definitely won't need a microSD card. By the way, you can listen to music here, including via Bluetooth headphones. There is also an FM radio, but to activate it you will need wired headphones - they will act as an antenna.
The picture here is displayed on a 2.8-inch display with a resolution of 240x320 pixels. We can say that this is the standard for a modern “button”. The buyer should also be pleased with a flashlight that can be useful in a dark entrance or somewhere else. It should also be noted that there are two slots for SIM cards. Well, you can complain about the weight - the device turned out to be quite heavy.
Advantages
- There is Internet access;
- The rear camera is complemented by a flash;
- Good LCD display;
- You can listen to MP3 music;
- There is FM radio;
- Bluetooth 3.0 available;
- Large amount of permanent memory;
- Used capacious battery;
- The microSD slot has not been forgotten.
Flaws
- Weight reaches 156 g;
- Not better interface;
- Very high cost;
- The camera has low resolution.
Another push-button phone in our rating, the screen resolution of which is 240x320 pixels. With a 2.4-inch diagonal, this is a completely adequate parameter, allowing the firmware to display a large number of icons. But the push-button device was included in our selection thanks to its battery, the capacity of which is 4000 mAh. The manufacturer promises that the user will be able to talk on this phone for more than a day and a half in a row.
There is only one color version of the device available for sale. As befits a modern mobile phone, SENSEIT L208 has two slots for SIM cards. The weight of the device is 120 g. Under the body there are 30 MB of permanent memory. Considering that the device supports MP3 music, this may not seem enough. In this regard, a memory card slot will definitely come in handy. The system supports a maximum storage capacity of 32 GB. By the way, it is not necessary to listen to MP3 songs. Instead, you can use FM radio by connecting wired headphones to your mobile phone. A flashlight can also please the buyer.
Claims here can only be made about the interface. In particular, this device has a very strange implementation of the key unlocking system - for this you need to make as many as three presses.
Advantages
- There are two SIM card slots;
- Very capacious battery;
- There is a slot for a memory card;
- Bluetooth 3.0 is present;
- Built-in FM radio;
- There is support for MP3 music;

Flaws
- No camera;
- Not the best menu;
- No internet access;
- Minimum amount of memory for SMS.
A simplified externally mobile phone. This is a traditional candy bar, on the front side of which there is a keyboard and an LCD display. All keys are separate, making them easy to feel blindly. The screen installed here has a diagonal of 2.4 inches and a resolution of 240x320 pixels. This is more than enough to display large quantity lines of text and icons that make up the menu.
If you look at the back cover, you can see the camera lens here. But it’s better to forget about this right away, since the camera resolution is only 0.3 megapixels. But FM radio will definitely please someone. However, please note that you will need to be connected to listen to it wired headphones. If you want to use an MP3 player, then you will not notice such a limitation. By the way, sound can also be output to a Bluetooth headset, which is most important when driving a car.
Otherwise, this is a typical feature phone, included in our rating mainly because of the battery, whose capacity reaches 4000 mAh. There is no doubt that the buyer will use the charger extremely rarely. Interestingly, the manufacturer did not hide which processor is installed here - it is a single-core MediaTek MT6261, clock frequency which is only 260 MHz. This is quite enough for stable operation firmware installed here. And don’t trust online stores - the device has practically no memory of its own. The owner of such a device will definitely need a microSD card (maximum 8 GB storage is supported).
Advantages
- Very long battery life;
- Adequate cost;
- There is Bluetooth 2.1;
- You can listen to MP3 music;
- There is an FM radio;
- It is possible to install a memory card;
- Good display;
- There is a flashlight.
Flaws
- Disgusting camera;
- Weight reaches 137 g;
- No internet access;
- T9 is missing.
The best push-button flip phones
A simple folding bed in appearance. It made it into our rating not because of its design, but because of its very good characteristics. For example, the product has a high-quality LCD display. Its diagonal is 2.4 inches and its resolution is 240x320 pixels. Once upon a time similar screen possessed Nokia smartphones, operating under Symbian. Much more is used here normal firmware, but its capabilities should be enough for the average user.
Of course, in order to reduce costs, the creators had to remove the auxiliary screen from the top cover. Due to this, you will not be able to find out the name of the caller before revealing the phone. But the device has a good camera, the resolution of which reaches 2 megapixels. The device also boasts two slots for SIM cards. Please note that one slot can accommodate regular card, and in the second - micro-SIM. Many more buyers will use the memory card slot, which maxes out at a 32GB drive.
Inside this clamshell there is a convenient keyboard. And somewhere under the body of a push-button telephone there is a processor whose clock frequency reaches 312 MHz. Alas, the manufacturer saved on the battery - a capacity of 750 mAh is only enough for one or two days of battery life with moderate use. Like many other devices reviewed in this rating, the device supports MP3 music playback, as well as FM radio. If such a desire arises, the sound can be output to a wireless headset - the Bluetooth 2.1 standard is used for this purpose.
Advantages
- There are two slots for SIM cards;
- There is Bluetooth; A good LCD display;
- Built-in FM radio;
- There is MP3 support;
- Folding form factor;
- You can insert a memory card (up to 32 GB);
- Quite a good camera.
Flaws
- The design will not suit everyone;
- Very modest battery;
- The font in the menu may seem too small.
The best secure feature phones
An increasingly rare mobile phone on sale, which could not help but make it into our rating. This device differs from its competitors by the presence of a shock-resistant case. Moreover, the gadget can be dropped into fresh water - nothing will happen to it. However, it is not recommended to leave it there for a long time. However, quickly finding a phone under water is not difficult - the bright yellow inserts help.
The device turned out to be heavy, its weight reaches 168 g. But such a device is extremely difficult to damage; it will serve its owner for many years. At the same time, the phone will offer to combine tariffs from different operators, because there are two slots for SIM cards. The slot for microSD has not been forgotten either - the maximum firmware will determine a 16 GB drive. You will mainly need a memory card to listen to MP3 songs. In this case, the sound can be output not only to the built-in speaker, but also to any type of headphones - including wireless ones. Interestingly, the product even has a GPRS module. However, accessing the Internet using such a push-button phone is very inconvenient, so it is unlikely that anyone will use this function.
The main disadvantage this mobile phone is, oddly enough, the screen. With a 2-inch diagonal, it has a resolution of only 220x176 pixels. However, this is quite enough to consider all the most important information. And it should be noted that the display is covered protective glass, saving from scratches, and this is rare for a modern “button”. The teXet TM-512R also includes a rear camera with a resolution of 2 MP. The manufacturer did not forget about the FM radio, which can be useful somewhere in nature. But in such conditions, the capacious battery is even more pleasing - buyers confirm that connecting an AC adapter for such a phone is rarely required.
Advantages
- There is a slot for a memory card;
- The set includes a belt holder with a compass;
- Built-in FM radio;
- Implemented MP3 support;
- A shockproof and waterproof case is used;
- Not a bad camera;
- The battery capacity reaches 2570 mAh;
- You can insert two SIM cards;
- There is Bluetooth.
Flaws
- Rarely found in stores;
- Heavy weight;
- Low display resolution;
- Not the most user-friendly interface.
Another secure phone in our rating. It has a body that is almost entirely painted in bright orange. The only exception is the black rubber pads, which act as shock absorbers when the device falls onto a hard surface. It should be noted that the buttons here are also rubber. This means that water will definitely not penetrate through them if the device falls somewhere into a river. This will definitely please travelers. They will also appreciate the presence of GPS navigation here. For its full operation, you will have to get hold of a microSD card, because area maps weigh quite a lot.
A push-button telephone for a traveler must work for a fairly long time. In this regard, the manufacturer has placed a 1750 mAh battery under the back cover. According to the creators of the device, a full charge will last for 12 hours of continuous conversation. Interestingly, the device can access the Internet - it supports the EDGE standard as much as possible. Wireless modules also include Bluetooth 2.0.
As you might guess, the device has no problems playing MP3 songs. There is also a built-in FM radio, which may well please you at the dacha or anywhere else. Well, as for the screen, it uses a 2-inch LCD panel. Its resolution is 240x320 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of up to 200 PPI - not everyone budget smartphone can boast of such a parameter! However, this push-button telephone is much more expensive than the most affordable smartphones- they are asking about 10 thousand rubles for it. Quite decent money for a gadget with one SIM card slot and a two-megapixel camera.
At the time of writing this rating, this mobile phone has not yet gone on sale. However Xiaomi company has already managed to officially announce her unusual creation, so there is no doubt that it will soon become another hit in Chinese online stores. The device is significantly different from all the devices discussed above. The fact is that it uses a special firmware Mocor 5 OS, created on Android based. It is also one of the few feature phones that can boast an IPS display. This screen has very good color rendition and maximum viewing angles. Its diagonal is 2.8 inches and its resolution is 320x240 pixels.
Under the body of this device is a dual-core Spreadtrum SC9820E processor. It provides operation not only to the firmware, but also to the GPS chip. The feature phone also includes 256 MB of RAM and 512 MB of permanent memory. Nothing was said about the card slot during the announcement microSD memory. But it would be very strange if he were not here. But the manufacturer did not forget to mention support for two SIM cards. The new product also has wireless Bluetooth modules 4.2 and Wi-Fi. This means that in many ways the device is almost no different from smartphones, but at the same time it has a comfortable physical keyboard. There is even an IR port here, allowing you to control your TV or speaker system! It remains to add that the capacity of the battery installed here is 1480 mAh, and it is recharged via the connector USB Type-C.
The problem with Xiaomi's feature phone is that the Chinese are unlikely to introduce an international version of it. This means that the firmware may be deprived of the Russian language. And certainly the Cyrillic alphabet will not appear on the keys of this mobile phone.
Advantages
- USB Type-C connector is used;
- A remarkable display created by IPS technology;
- There are two SIM card slots;
- The firmware has a large number useful applications;
- There is a powerful processor;
- Can act as a remote control for a TV;
- Built-in GPS modules, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth;
- High-speed Internet access is available;
- Long battery life.
Flaws
- Intended, most likely, exclusively for the Chinese market.
Conclusion
As you may have noticed, each specimen reviewed in our selection has certain shortcomings. Unfortunately, it is now customary to save money on the production of “buttons”, and therefore all devices are in one way or another limited in their capabilities. However, we believe that you are unlikely to be seriously disappointed with the phone you buy if it is a model from our rating. The few shortcomings are quite tolerable.
