Nokia 130 (2023)

OhoPrice editorial review

The Nokia 130 (2023) is a straightforward no-frills phone. Its 2.4" 240x320 TFT LCD is a familiar feature-phone screen and the 1450mAh battery should be enough for several days of calls and texts. There is no camera, which removes one common source of complaints but also means it is only for buyers who truly need a simple calling device. The tiny 4MB built-in memory is enough for contacts and text history, but not for storing media. This is a practical pick for someone who wants a basic backup phone or a first phone for a child, and who values reliability over anything else. The Tecno Pop 3 is in a different league because it is a low-end smartphone, not a feature phone. It has a 5.7" capacitive IPS display, a MediaTek processor, 1GB RAM, 16GB storage and cameras, so it offers a much wider range of apps and better multimedia. If you want smartphone capabilities and more battery size, the Pop 3 is the better option. The Nokia 130 is instead the right choice if you want the simplest device that avoids smartphone complexity and does not need a camera. Check PTA’s DIRBS calculator for the exact registration and duty amount, and installment plans are typically available through major retailers for phones in this category.
