Nokia has unveiled the Nokia 106 (2023) rugged feature phone together with new versions of the Nokia 105 and Nokia 110. The Nokia 106 has similar capabilities as the new Nokia 105 4G (2023) that was announced recently but with some upgraded features. The Nokia 106 features a music player and the Snake game which are missing on the 105 4G (2023). Nokia has previously held sway in the feature phones segment, with a long list of durable offerings.

Feature phones ruled the market in the earliest days of mobile phones and Nokia was a big player at that time. With the advent of smartphones, feature phones have been relegated to the background. They are however still meeting the demands of a huge demographic of the global market. Their ruggedness and affordability, coupled with their extended battery lives, have continued to draw fans to these phones. A feature phone is also a useful backup device when hiking or camping.

Features in the Nokia 105 include wireless FM radio, a flashlight, and the traditional call menu. The Nokia 106 has an MP3 player, a Snake game, and a flashlight. It offers up to 22 days of standby and 12 hours of calls. Users will need to have an SD card installed on the Nokia 106 in order to listen to music. The Nokia 106 comes in three colors namely red, cyan, and black.

The three new Nokia feature phones have 2G network capability, although the Nokia 110 has a 4G variant which was previously released. Apart from the network capability differences, the new 2G-enabled Nokia 110 has similar features to its predecessor.

Nokia is yet to provide full pricing information for the three new feature phones. It is however expected that they will be quite affordable. Nokia also plans to release 4G versions of the Nokia 105 and 106. The Nokia 110 4G Pro could also be close to its unveiling.
