Nokia 110 TA-1667 Titanium 128GB

The Nokia 110 TA-1667 is a 94g feature phone with 4G LTE, dual SIM, and a removable 1450mAh battery. Its camera score of 6.6 out of 100 is one of the worst we've seen, and the display sits at the 15th percentile. It's a solid choice for calls and texts, but nothing else.

Let's be honest, the performance story here is about what this phone doesn't do. It sits at the 23rd percentile for performance, which translates to 'falls behind' in our database. The processor is unknown, and RAM is a mystery, but KaiOS is lightweight enough that the phone handles basic tasks without much fuss. Calls, texts, and the built-in MP3 player work fine. The 4G LTE connectivity is a nice touch for a feature phone, and HD call quality is a real benefit if you're on a compatible network.

The 1450mAh battery is removable, which is a rarity these days. Nokia claims hours of talk time and days of standby, and that tracks with the 31st percentile battery ranking. It's not a marathon runner by modern standards, but for a phone this simple, it'll get you through a few days of light use. The 2.4" display is a step up from the previous model's 1.75" screen, but it's still in the 15th percentile. Text is readable, and the physical numeric keyboard is tactile and easy to use. Just don't expect to watch videos on this thing.

Stacking the Nokia 110 against the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE, iPhone 13, or Pixel 7a is like bringing a butter knife to a sword fight. Those phones dominate our database in performance, display, and camera, while the Nokia 110 sits in the bottom quarter across the board. The Motorola Moto G Power 2024 5G is a closer philosophical match, it's a budget phone with a big battery, but even that device runs circles around the Nokia in every measurable way. The GAMAKOO G25 Ultra is another budget option that offers a modern smartphone experience for not much more money. The Nokia 110's only real advantage is its simplicity, its 94g weight, and its removable battery. If you want a phone that does one thing well, make calls, this is a contender. If you want anything else, look elsewhere.

Pricing is all over the map here. In the US, you'll find this phone listed between USD 51 and USD 72 across two listings. That's a USD 21 spread for the same device, which is worth paying attention to. Newegg has the Titanium version with fast shipping, and their listing tends to sit at the lower end of that range. If you're shopping in Japan, the JPY 17,082 price tag is a different story entirely, but that's a single listing and not directly comparable to the US market. For a basic 4G feature phone, anything under USD 60 feels reasonable. Above that, you're paying a premium for nostalgia.

The Nokia 110 TA-1667 is a 94g throwback that fits in your pocket and your budget, with a 2.4" display and a removable 1450mAh battery. It's not trying to compete with the slabs in our database, and the percentile rankings make that painfully clear. It lands in the bottom quarter for performance, display, and build, and the camera score of 6.6 out of 100 is one of the worst we've seen. But that's not really the point of this thing.

This is a phone for calls, texts, and the occasional round of Snake. It runs KaiOS, supports 4G LTE with HD call quality, and has dual SIM slots. The expandable storage goes up to 32GB, which is plenty for MP3s and FM radio presets. If you're looking for a digital detox or a reliable backup phone, the Nokia 110 does exactly what it says on the box. Just don't expect it to impress anyone at a spec sheet party.

Skip the Nokia 110 if you care about photography, the camera score of 6.6 out of 100 is a real letdown, and the display at the 15th percentile will frustrate anyone used to a modern smartphone. The build quality also lands in the 15th percentile, so it feels cheap in hand. If you need apps, a good screen, or a camera that doesn't make you sad, spend a bit more on a budget smartphone like the Moto G Power 2024 5G. This phone is for people who want less, not more.

The Nokia 110 TA-1667 is a niche product for a niche audience. If you need a cheap, reliable 4G feature phone with dual SIM support and a removable battery, it does the job. The HD call quality is genuinely good, and the physical keyboard is a joy for anyone tired of touchscreens. But the camera is nearly useless, the display is small, and the build quality feels budget. At USD 51 to USD 72, it's a fair price for a backup phone or a digital detox device. Just know what you're getting into.
