HMD Global has launched a new feature phone in China. This device is called Nokia 105 4G and it was first announced for global markets two weeks back. The main highlight of the handset is support for LTE connectivity and Alipay (only China). The phone can be considered as a successor to the Nokia 105 (2019), which was followed by Nokia 105 (2017) and Nokia 105 (2013) respectively. That said, let’s take a look at what the new model has to offer.

Nokia 105 4G Specifications and Features

The newly unveiled Nokia 105 4G looks different than its predecessors. The new model features flat sides, however, the top and bottom remain curved. For comparison, the previous two models sport a pebble-like design.

The phone arrives in three colors, namely Dark Blue, Red, and Black. It is made of polycarbonate, measures 121 x 50 x 14.5mm in dimensions, and weighs around 80.2g.

The device comes with a 1.8-inch QVGA LCD panel. It is powered by a UNISOC T107 chipset and boots Series 30+ operating system. Other features include an LED torch, 3-in-1 speaker, readout, FM radio (wired and wireless), 3.5mm headphone jack, and a MicroUSB port.

Unlike its predecessors, the all-new Nokia 105 4G supports LTE connectivity as well as Alipay. However, it is worth noting that users will require a smartphone to set up the mobile payment feature. As mentioned in the beginning, these two features are the main highlight of this handset.

As usual, HMD Global is targeting the elders with the Nokia 105 4G. The phone is backed by a 1,020mAh removable battery. The company claims up to 18 days standby time on the single SIM variant with 2G connection and 14 days on LTE connection.
