I might get this. I’m tired of advanced technology all together. I go outside and look at the artificiality of the world and how far we regressed.

I've been wanting a flip phone for ages, I hate that I get distracted on my smartphone. But I still wanted WhatsApp as that's what my family uses to message. I may get this phone

Finally a detailed review! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot

This was really detailed, thank you so much for taking the time to make it!!

Thank you so much for this vid! Quite a detailed review. Seriously considering getting this phone and shocked to see this came out in 2019 when I just discovered it today.

6:05 - there came a time, when you need to explain what T9 is. I think I feel old now

It turns the phone into a vi- *breathes deeply*

I really applaud you for finding a way to detox from smartphones and sticking with it:) I really want to do this & I’m trying to decide between a flip phone or a BlackBerry leap.

TAKE A BOW!!!!!!!!!! That was one of the most informative videos on YT for a phone. I'd like to of known about WIFI calling, and turning on the speaker phone, but you gave me enough information to want to look into this phone!!!!!! You could of went longer and I would of stayed watching!!!! Being of the older generation, I want to commend you sir; very well done!!!! Again BROVO!!!!!!!!!👍👍👍

First ever 30min video I watched on KZfaq ! Great review / all questions answered in detail :)

Great review man! You've definitely got a voice and the Knack for reviews! Keep up the good work

My mom really needed it, will get it for her soon, thank you for the review, you have put a lot of your precious time on this video for us to understand and judge it coherently, I just subscribed and clicked that Bell button, you deserve to have/get more subscribers bro. Please continue what you are doing! Thank you.

The battery thing is rather disappointing. You'd expect more from a phone like this, like 3 days of battery life or whatever. Good thing about the battery is that it is removable, which is not an option in modern smartphones. My dad has this Nokia, so I held it in my hands a couple of times - feels very firm, nice, and solid. I like this phone, but I hope Nokia will make a newer, better version of it in the future. The future of classic flip phones could be bright, but they have to improve the performance. For now I'm sticking to my smartphone, but maybe I'll give a flip phone a try in the future.

The best review on this phone i have watched. Thanks man

As I am using the phone more, I am realizing more drawbacks. One of the bigger ones is the fact that it is practically impossible to receive photos through text. They take forever to download and you have to download them before a certain date. You can for some reason get pictures through WhatsApp more easily. Another annoying thing is using email, let's just say that it takes a long time to find an email. Also, you can't multitask and see texts at the same time as you're talking to someone. If you try to exit out of the phone call to look at something else, it hangs up. Also group texts show up as separate messages meaning each person in the group is a separate conversation, you can't talk in the group chat.

Thanks for this detailed review, best one I’ve seen so far 👌Keep making videos..!

Well done, one of the best run throughs on a flip phone I have heard............helped me out a great deal. finally got rid of that brick i carried around on my hip. if you don't want some brick that carries around the world inside it.....and all you want is a very simple phone to make and recieve calls and messages.............THIS IS IT.

This is a great detailed review compared to others, thank you so much! Question if possible, the google maps, do you think it is still possible to use while walking? Does the little dot move if you move? Also the battery being bad, does that mean if I wanted to listen to music would it die with an hours use?

the only feature that I wanted to know is if this phone have a bluetooth connection,so you make my day,thank's a lot!!!

I've been using a flip phone for about a year now and I dig it. I still keep my galaxy nearby (wifi only) but it's clunky and mostly only use it in bed or at cafe's. The flip fits in the pocket really comfortably so it's really great when you're on the go. it's also fine for KZfaq when paired with a small bluetooth speaker. Pretty sure it's pinned at like 360p so it barely uses data. 1 gig can easily last a month even if you use youtube for a 1/2 hour a day which is great.

The only thing I will complain about this phone is the battery life. Come on Nokia, I liked this phone, but why the damn battery that bad? I would buy the phone...

Can i install the autheticator app on this phone? I want to get a less smarter smart phone, but need this application for work

I'm not sure about the US, but in NZ this is a 4G phone. You can use it as a hotspot. I think most KaiOS phones are 4G, makes Google services etc. usable. Great review, thanks!

I [happily] use a feature 'phone, but when I go out I'm surrounded by people absorbed in smrtfones; I sit in the Pub & everyone else is staring down at 'phones, inc my kids. I'm trying to remember what Pubs were like in late '80s/90s when I was growing up; I think people talked to each other? If I was alone or waiting, I read 'Sounds' or played Pinball - I don't want strangers hassling me, or chatting me up - Lol, probably safe from that these days - but it is 𝗦𝗢 weird how no-one else is really *there?!* They 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬 like they're there, but it's a room of ghosts..

Thankyou for the first class review.i have just purchased one and didnt realise it has so many features.

The biggest selling point for me, is the lack of social media apps and the liberation of not being so instantly connected to the world. I figured, why be suckered for $176 a month, for a smartphone, that literally no one contacts me on, with the exception of my girlfriend and mother. And that’s not an exaggeration, unless you include spam callers and notifications for bills. Mine will be shipped in 2 days. Can’t wait to take a nostalgic trip back to the 90s and free myself of unnecessary stress. Goodbye iPhone and hello freedom. It’s all a psychological trap people. Let go and live life. P.S. - I have a laptop in the event that I need to get on third party apps such as banking apps or google. Other than that, it’s no longer an appendage that I feel scared to lose.

ive had the phone for 1 year and some things i want to point out pros: NO ADS!- every website ive gone to absolutely no ads,no ads on instagram,no ads on facebook,no hot local milfs near you,nothing,not even on youtube instagram- works in browser(no offical app on kai os yet),u can do everything there,even post storys and dm people,emojis are also visible ,but for some reason cant see videos on explore anymore whatsapp- works but cant make calls facebook-works havent tried calling on there and bunch of stuff,can scroll the feed and comment etc. youtube-works can watch videos and comments webbrowser and other websites-most of them work except soundcloud wich at first was workin but now it doesnt,it seems like it makes alot of phones crash that dont have the correct app when u try to go there from browser(had same issue with older smartphones) durability- u said its gets scratched easily wich is true but the phone sure can take good fall damage without braking or cracking or damaging phone ,wich happened to most of my smartphones in less in 1 year of use camera-by smartphone standards its garbage but by flip phone standards its the peak evolution of pixels size/weight-its alot smaller and lighter than all the smartphones, alot more comfortable to carry in pocket and hold in hand compared to smartphones with large screens battery life-better than smartphones,but if u watch videos on youtube on its pretty much same battery life as smartphones dual sim and a micro sd -u can have 2 simcards active at same time,can use 2 telephone numbers wich is very useful for me for many reasons wifi hotspot-probably my favourite thing about it,drains battery depending what u doing on the net,i use it everyday to make internet for my pc with it and its quite fast emojis-yes they are on a flipphone now lol,and quite alot of them price-i got it for 100 bucks so its probly the best flipphone for that price considering how many features it has cons: quite few apps ,specialy the common ones,worst one for me is that i cant use soundcloud,not even in browser youtube-you cant close ur phone if u want the song to remain playing,maybe u can if u have youtube premium,i dont so not sure batterylife-would expect to be better for flipphone but i guess its still a smartphone y it has the same battery life updates-when i first got it,it was updating like every few days like most smartphones,but now i havent got any updates for like a year lol idk why messaging-takes long to type a simple sentence without using the predictive texting,not a phone for some1 who chats on it for 2 hours in a day or has long conversations every day web images/videos-as he mentioned for most people it seems crappy that the screen videos and images inst that big ,really its only cause ppl are so used to huge screens,its pretty decent compared to flipphones we had in 2006 etc google maps-i havent personally test it myself if it doesnt say directions,i tought it would since u can see ur blue dot moving and present,u can zoom out and see the whole route atleast tho,so it isnt completly useless hope this one helps some1 deciding getting 1 lol,im quite happy with it and dont plan on going back to normal smartphones anytime soon

Thanks a ton for this review. I knew this phone wasn't perfect but the drawbacks make it impossible for me to go back to a nice flip phone... I guess I'll have to wait a little longer. Voice calls on WA, decent navigation and a long battery life are a must for me.

Wow ❤️, The nokia keypad mobile next generation has started ⚡😍👌

I really wanted one of these until I saw your thorough review. I sincerely hope Nokia takes your info and updates the phone.

I really like and appreciate your voice! It's soothing... and quite relaxing to listen to. I watched and listened to the entire video... while cooking carbonara for dinner. Great job!

Your words were carefully chosen, you were politely presenting the points I loved to have heard about the phone...great review !

I wonder how many people using this phone were around in the mid 90s to know how to type the old way, I used to be super quick. Not sure about now though, will have to see

Thanks for review. Coming from the perspective of one who's never used a smart phone, is 74, doesn't want a smt. phone and won't use its features, incl. apps (use a laptop for that), lives in a rural area of the mtn west, have to replace my flip because of non support for 3g. What would be a good simple 4g flip phone for 1. ease of texting 2. slightly larger screen size, 3. a little better camera? Current phone I'm replacing is an LG Exalt (similar size and format to an LG Classic) Thanks to any and all.

Great video. Oh how I wish there was a way to put WhatsApp calling on this phone. They released this phone again in the US as the Nokia 2720 V Flip with Verizon and that has WhatsApp calling. I wish they could put it on the 2019 version too since they are nearly identical

Im gonna switch out my 2660 flip for this. nice review

silly question, does it have Spotify? literally the only reason I don't dump my smartphone right now ..

Brilliant review. One question can we uninstall the preloaded apps? Like I don't want whatsapp/Facebook etc

The camera on feature phones is the thing that bugs me the most I gotta take pictures at work quite often, so a camera that's at least 5mp or something like that would be much better. Also a feature phone that has a variation of Android itself would be cool. Social media detox is still my reason to get a feature phone, but there are apps that I wanna be able to use anyways, like internet radio, a news app, Shazam Google mail.....

I just bought this yesterday - and it has lots of things my old flip did not have. However, all that this phone *does* have comes with NO instructions! Can I use headset so I can be hands-free? How do I take a pic and then download it to my computer? How long does the battery take to fully charge? What is the separate little micro USB used for and where? I'm a novice and never had a smartphone and my old cell still works but Verizon has stopped supporting it and it might die in 2023. I don't need to text - I need a phone to call if I'm lost - or in an emergency. It would be nice to find a restaurant ... but that's what I do before leaving home. I have 700 minutes on the old Samsung - and barely use 50 minutes. Thank you for the info you did show me.

I just got one of these to help keep me off my smartphone. So far, I think it’s really neat and has exceeded my expectations for a flip phone.

How do you set the speed dial? My grandma has got one recently and she needs the speed dial because she is elderly and isn't keen on technology 😅 We got it on 2024 but the model name is still the same

Problem with Nokia since they relaunched is the charging ports convientlly destruct after about thirteen months light usage ! Was a big supporter of the brand 5 different models later bye Nokia your quality control is sadly lacking compared to your old models

I just bought a Nokia 2780 flip and now I´m thinking to change it for this one bc mine don´t have WhatsApp and I really need it (now I´m texting on WhatsApp web on my laptop). Even though, I like the experience of disconnecting from the social media and the addiction that I have on it. It's like breathing fresh air. I really recommend the option of changing your smartphone to a dumb phone to disconnect from the social media and reconnect to the real life and to spend the time doing useful things instead of staying hours and hours just seeing dumb things like on TikTok.

The os sucks a bit.You can't rely on the alarm because the time freezes when the display is off and it refreshes a second after you wake it up,and then the alarm rings xD and It would have been better to be android apk compatible.

Thanks for such a detailed review. I generally like the phone, which makes me plan on purchasing one.

I have 3 question. 1: I know it have google map, but does it have Google? 2: Can I delete the app? Like something that are already there when I brought it, like FB for example, can I delete that? 3: does this phone Lag?

Thank you for giving us so much info on that phone, thank you friend!

About to smother my father with a pillow with the amount of time he calls me to complain about his iPhone. Nothing wrong with it but he is just someone who has issues with advanced technology and he manages to touch things he shouldn't! I am getting him this phone. All he needs is to call out and receive calls. I can't wait to get the iPhone back and throw it against the wall just to make myself feel good about all the angst it has caused me lol!

I just got mine but it doesn’t have a store to download apps from, it also doesn’t have WhatsApp can you please help

Bernie Burnie, is it so hard for you to teach me the first steps of the revolving menu ???

I have a question for owners of Nokia 2720 Flip phone. Im curious how strong is the "flip" on this phone... What I mean is when its closed and if I put the phone upside down (or in various other angles) will it open automatically or is the mechanism strong enough to keep the phone closed and only manual finger opening will open it?

Its a flip phone.....not supposed to have smartphone features. You cant ding it for something that it is not designed for.

@4:57 ..I think I know who'd want that "app" lol

Aahhh now I kinda want to use flip phone too 😢

I honestly don’t need this but I want to get one of these

Hi does Twitter work on your phone cause it's not working on mine💔

Hi can you review the LG flip phone

Great video, man! Do you know if there's a version of this phone that doesn't have wifi, maybe GSM network stuff that you were talking, the seller is saying that the phone doesn't have, but it is the same model for sure (2720)? And also, does it connects with ear buds live from samsung? I'm really thinking about buying. Thank you.

A few hundred million people in India love this phone. You may not have a decent toilet but you can get a cheap (100$) phone with apps !!

I think you forgot an important aspect: you completely forgot about its battery life.

can this phone connect to wifi? does it have bluetooth? can i download spotify?

It was an interesting video that allows you to see that they have improved by making the keys much larger compared to other models they have. By the way, at one point you said that there is no voice command for text except in WhatsApp where you can send only audio files. Well, no, that's not true, but a lot of people don't know that and it's a shame because typing on that kind of old-fashioned keyboard is not very pleasant. it's very simple, when you're in the frame to type your text in any application you press the central button for two seconds and you release and it launches the Google assistant which takes care of the voice command. And it works in any application where you can type text. I have a thought for all those who didn't know it before and who typed their messages by hand on this kind of phone 😂 I have the Nokia Banana phone where the keys are even smaller than on the 2720 you can imagine if I had to type text by hand regularly with this 🤣

Can add a micro sd card for extra storage?

The shortcut button u assigned for messages can be used as a recent apps button. I've seen another video doing it.

Just ordered this phone on eBay, crossing my fingers I don’t have any issue with it working with US AT&T! 😬

Verizon sells this phone, and I've read that some customers cannot unlock it for the Verizon network. I don't know if it's all clients, though. I'm looking for a rebound phone that isn't an Apple. I'm also looking for a detox, too. (Great turn of phrase.) How easy is it to remove the battery? Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the good review. Just ordered my 2720 on Amazon today🙂👍

Hi, what apps are available for emailing? Is there anything like Gmail or Outlook?

Thanks for this in-depth honest review! I'm looking for a phone for my granny, and I'm kinda liking this for myself too lol. Going back to Whatsapp, can't the 'Voice' menu at the center start a phone call? I don't use whatsapp and I'm not sure of their menu terms though

So overall would you recommend this phone for detox , I am just worried about what you said, spending more time on pc instead etc ? Also how is music on it , also does it have hotspot ?

Zòr gap bòlishi mumkinmas buyurtma qilsam bòladimi????

This phone is literally sold out in the UK

Whatsapp has calling feature now but battery remains a problem.

Wonderful review, thank you. But I was wondering if you can use other keyboards for other languages for example to write in Arabic or French?

Can you use KZfaq to MP3 to change your ringtone, or does that only work on mobiles? And can you download Spotify on it? If WhatsApp is available on it, then surely Spotify's able to be downloaded, right?

please...give a total review over store of Nokia 2720..

Can you instal spotify?

i'm downgrading my smartphone to blackberry bold ..i'm in the process of smartphone detox ..We don't really need those apps..All we need is just a phone that has calling & messaging function on it ...

Watched all 29:21 of the video hoping you would answer one impossible question for me. The speakerphone, or 'Loudspeaker' as Nokia is calling it, how to activate or use it can't be found. Says only available when on a call and look for the speaker icon on the screen. I did see it 1 time, by accident. How no idea how I did that. Do you know? OBTW, I have 2 of these and about 30days in so far. Had 2 LG flip phones, 3g on Verizon and had to replace them. Wanted something similar, with minimum learning curve and certainly don't need or want a smartphone. Do almost 100% on computers, laptop, or iPads. Phone calls yes, primary use. Excellent job on the review. Certainly learned a lot. Can you help me on using the loudspeaker, please? Thanks in adavence.

I want a Samsung G9198 ,. Best looking coolest flip phone I've ever seen. .... But I just found out they never released it in the US only in a few other countries.

Can you watch youtube with the screen closed?

Excellent video! I just got my Nokia 2720... go detox!!!

Great review! Intro nice pics and music but too long. Took 45 seconds to get to the video. Nice details in the reviews and very thorough

can you uninstall apps like facebook or google or youtube..? thank you for answer..

Is this facility when the phone is connected to the internet . My phone is NOT connected to the net !

Hi, i know this is an older video but i have a couple of questions if your available to answer and remember about this phone lol. Can you set the text size bigger? Also if you use Google assistant to send a text message and you get a text back will it read text back in voice? Thanks 😀

Awesome in depth review well done! Next video, plan more for perfection. You have my like.

Great video. I'm buying one this week 🙂

1-2 hours battery life is all if I am listening to music on my Bluetooth headphones? That's kind of a deal breaker 😑

With google account is possible to add my contacts that I have on smartphone to 2720 automatically?

Any flip, compact phone with whatsapp calling feature, 4G/5G, and durable battery. Recommendations are welcome.

I can think of a few people that would use the massage app ;)

Hiii what a good review! I have a question, what about whatsapp group chats? Does that work well? For example if my friends send photos in the group chat, can i see it?

I'm not sure about the US model but globally it does work on the 4G network, just thought I'd throw that out there incase people are wondering. But great review mate, it was well done, thank you for the help with my decision making on which classic phone to buy from Nokia as an alternative to the smartphone.

Great job on the review! 👍

Hi, can you please tell me what those marks are above keys 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on the keypad ? They are some sort of symbol, but they mean nothing to me.

hi can you please check that if there is a Auto Answer mode while connected with bluetooth earbud? many thanks

5:00 lol you almost said it but stopped yourself nice vid

Do you know if we can customize ringtone from mp3m
