Feature phones still exist even though there are super affordable smartphones that can provide a seamless transition to a smarter way of using a phone. Nokia Mobile is quite aware of that and Nokia’s feature phones are still perceived as some of the best on the market. Internal statistics from HMD Global, the startup that runs Nokia Mobile, showed that in September 2020, feature phone activations increased 3.8% annually.
Since in many markets, people still depend on feature phones, companies are trying to make them a little smarter to bring some modern apps to many users and show them a touch of the smartphone world. This is one of the reasons companies are releasing feature phones with more capable software. Nokia was doing that before it was great by launching the S40 or Asha series phones, and Nokia Mobile is doing the same today. After the announcement of Nokia 8110 4G, Nokia 2720 Flip and Nokia 800 Tough, Nokia Mobile announced Nokia 6300 4G and Nokia 8000 4G that come with the latest version of KaiOS. The phones bring back a touch of nostalgia, Snapdragon 210, a powerful 1500 mAh battery and a camera with an LED flashlight. I like the idea of putting a 2MP camera on 80004G, which is much better than a classic VGA found on 6300 4G. I wish 5MP would become a standard on these phones, as feature phones could finally produce photos worthy of Instagram and other social media. The best feature of these feature phones is the ability to function as a WiFi access point, which will save the battery of your primary smartphone.
Here are the Nokia 6300 4G and Nokia 8000 4G datasheets.
How about the new 6300 and 8000? Would you consider bringing one to serve as your Wi-Fi access point?
