Nokia 130 (2017) - User Reviews

  • It's call volume and quality is very good and it's mp3 music quality is good till one step to high level but at the maximum level it distort the music sound and this problem is not from the headphones it's from the phone because i'v tested the headphones with my Samsung note 4 and it is good even at high volume

  • Yes

  • Disapointment in many ways. Loudspeaker is crap. Sounds are utmost crap. Center key can be operated only with finger nail, often gives wrong input. Screen brightness not adjustable. Calendar sound is not adjustable. Keyboard won't lock when something is open. If anything good, then it is the call recording, but even this is not working reliably.

  • Yes.

  • does this phone have call blocking featur?

  • This phone battery backup is unexpected 2days backup.i am sad this reason.

  • bad SAR value

  • Can micro sim card work on this device? Because I use Nokia 105 and it works after placing it carefully though.

  • I'd say the Nokia 130 (2017) is more of a remake of the Nokia 108 and the Nokia 105 (2017) is more of a remake of the Nokia 130. In other words: Nokia 130 (2017) is more like a Nokia 108 (2017) Nokia 105 (2017) is more like a Nokia 130 (2017)

  • The phone's brightness is preset quite high with no adjustment settings.

  • No It doesn't have internet capability.

  • does it have flight mode (all connections off)?

  • The OS is called "Series 30+" and it was developed by Nokia, continued by HMD Global since 2016. ;)

  • Contact list: 1000 entries SMS: 500 messages

  • what is its OS?

  • can anyone tell me what is its inbox messages memory?

  • Can anyone tell me what is the number of call log that we can store in this phone ?

  • yes but require a memory card

  • Yes. In the box includes the mobile phone, the battery, the user guide, the charger, the usb cable and the earphone. ;)

  • Yes. It is a tutorial how record a voice call on Nokia 130 (2017): ;)

  • is Nokia 130 new 2017 come swith feature call recording?

  • Please does the Nokia 130 ship with Headset (earpiece) inside the box?...

  • Yes

  • Sound is good through earpiece. At least to the average. I use a HTC earphone with it, and the bass was pretty much accurate.

  • Does it support Tamil language

  • Other than mp3, can it support WMA music format?

  • can i access Facebook. with this phone?

  • yes

  • Hi! Does the Nokia 130 (2017) has a vibration mode?

  • amazing mobile

  • it is nice mobile

  • How to change fint size?

  • how to remove automatic answer in this unit?

  • The nokia 130 set having troble with listening speaker and mike.....as i got problem with speaker ..after replasing a set again i found problem with its speaking mike.

  • The phone has all that you have said it does not have. Please check the settings well

  • Can anyone tell about the call quality (volume)? My experience with Nokia 130 (2014) was not good as the sound is very low during call. Is it improved in 2017 version? thnx in advance

  • The original Nokia 130 didn't have a camera.

  • It's really good. But keep in mind that it doesn't has equalizer

  • For MP3 player? Does sound output (through headphones) is good or distorted? I've listened to Nokia 216 and 3310 and the sound awful through headphones? Is it any better or same? Plz reply as I've to buy this phone

  • This phone does not come with a pair of headphones! Does not have browser. There is no call record/auto call record option. I had to replace it with a Micromax X512. Though it's not as robust as the Nokia 130, it's meeting all my needs and I am very happy with it. For India and other countries where the Micromax X512 is available,I would recommend it over the Nokia 130.

  • This phones lack of internet (atleast gsm or edge) doesnt make any sense. Especially if i want to do emergency browsing when my samsung android battery is low or charging.

  • Not possible

  • could you record the radio unto sd card

  • I ditched my Samsung Galaxy On7 for this phone. Here is my honest review: 1. The phone is so sturdy. The polycarbonate build quality is top notch. It has a matte finish so finger smudges is not a problem. I got the Red color and it is so cute, bright, and a head turner. 2. Battey life is amazing. It can lasts up to 3 days. I used it as my MP3 player and for calls and texts. 3. The screen is so bright even in direct sunlight. What I don't like about the display is that it doesn't have a brightness setting. It is so bright during nightime. 4. Speaker is not loud to my liking. 5. Signal quality is superb compared to my On7. 6. No smart dialing. 7. What I hate about this phone is that it has no Airplane Mode. 8. The price is so cheap but the phone is built like a tank. I bought it for 1,290 pesos or 25 dollars. Verdict: It is an excellent phone if you are looking for a solid and functional feature phone. No other brand can beat Nokia in this area.

  • Yes it can support a range of file formats.

  • And expandable memory?

  • Can it support other music formats other than mp3?

  • pls can u record radio on this phone nokia 130

  • Pls Can someone tell me how the music player on this phone is. i need it as a backup phone strictly for music while my android which im currently using will be strictly for internet surfing. Pls reply asap

  • yes it has SD card in it.. Even though it is not working. While making and receiving call it says unable to record and hangs and restarts.

  • Its £10, what do you expect for the price? The rest of phone is exelent though

  • Do you have a SD card? If you dont then it wont work

  • You dont know what you are talking about. This is the best retro phne they havemade so far, has all you need. Exelent and recommend it to everyone

  • it does have a file manager. its right there at the bottom of the main menu.

  • The keypad is a knock-off imitation of the keypad found in the Samsung E1080. Not impressed at all.

  • Don't buy this not so quick for texting and no file manager

  • I can recommend IPhone X.

  • Does this phone have any option to copy phonebook from other handset.?

  • After using it for 3 months now it started giving problem.. auto call recording function not working.. Wen selected option for this function the mobile get hanging and restarts. When i given to service center they told its circuit board issue and denied to fix it by replacing board and saying some false reasons. Chinese mobiles are far better than these renouned brand. Better dont buy any nokia mobiles which are newer in markets. Older nokia mobiles are very good in all aspects incl for rough usage by many times dropping down.

  • Are you going to surf the internet on a nokia 130? A device with a 1.8 inch dot dot screen? :D I wish they drop useless features like camera to keep the price low. Adding a browser will be a waste as for my view. Most (if not all) people buy feature (basic) phones just for calling and occasional text or as a backup phone.

  • Camera is a waste of precious money :-D I don't think anyone's gonna take a *nokia 130* in 2017 to a photo shoot :))) I bought 105 for about 17$... Didn't want to waste 10$ more on a camera which I'm never going to use. Plus 105 is more handsome looking (at least for my eyes) :-D But consider the fact that Nokia 130 has a bigger batery compared to 105 model.

  • worest battery backup. buttons are low quality, singnal strenth also not good as previous nokia mode. dont waste ur money buying ds model.

  • The call and signal quality is useless on these phones. I used an old Nokia from 2007 and it blows this crap out of the water

  • please avoid this model: 1. Without radio if you have not additional (optional) purchases. 2. Very bad shortened manual (even manual is a big problem for this company!)

  • somewhat hard rubber

  • What is the material of buttons? Rubber or plastic?

  • it's a "feature phone". what would you expect?

  • A GSM-only mobile released in mid-2017. What a waste.

  • Resolution is 128 x 160 not 120 x 160 Here are some Mini Nokia Wallpapers that I made :)

  • is there an option to get small font for the messaging? it's not like the old nokia I used before.. please help

  • does it has a web browser? If not then Nokia has to reintroduce it with a web browser for at least this price .

  • I cannot find any suitable headset for this model ( DS 130 TA-1017). Can anyone suggest me one?

  • no voice leakage ! clear and crisp earpiece/receiver and loudspeaker !

  • Exelent Phone and worth buying.

  • In the Philippines I got it for 1190 pesos, that's about 23 USD. Overall great phone. Long battery life, high SMS and Phonebook capacity. Excellent audio output through headphones. USB charging and data transfer.

  • Mine works just fine. Try using a different SD Card if it still doing the same thing you may have a defective unit.

  • Does Nokia 130 2017 have Call Voice leakage problem Can Anyone tell me?

  • when I connect the phone with usb cable and to my laptop, it is not detected as 'external storage'. so there is nothing i can do about it there. with nokia pc suite it just shows unable to connect (sorry dont remember exact message and I have already uninstalled it). What i have to do is this: take the SD card out, put in in SD card jacket, and plug it in the laptop, then only can i transfer the files.

  • what was the price when you bought this?

  • superb phone i want tell u guys , many people dnt know it has a auto call recording option go to the se setting call setting and on call recording ... 2000 phone book 500 sms capicity great sound durable ear speaker clear sound , only navigation key little bit difficult other wise 100 percent ok and one thing battery timing normal not so far ..

  • Nokia 130 very good phone

  • what kind of error u are receiving while transfer ? and which file u tried to transfer ?

  • I am unable to transfer files from my laptop to this phone using a standard USB cable. I even installed Nokia PC suite, thinking it will solve this, but it is not solved still. [note: I have kingston 8 GB micro SD card installed in the phone and it is working fine: voice recordings/call recordings, etc.] I also read somewhere USB 2.0 port should be used; but I also tried this with a collegue's USB 2.0 port, but it did not work. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks

  • Thanks for your feedback - I went and got the grey one. I am still evaluating if it has slight voice leakage from back end, and trying to evaluate other features. Overall looks value for money. Thanks...

  • Thanks for the feedback - I bought the white/grey one. Still evaluating its features but overall looks value for money.

  • can anybody tell me how to reformat my micro sd card on this phone because i cant seem to find the options. Still a great phone bty.

  • Does anyboby know the european sar value?

  • Actually, the right color is grey... and yes it is a good looking phone. There are many games pre-installed on the phone and there is also a dictionnary to text (on my phone which i bought in France available languages are French, Deutsch and Italiano...). Unfortunately, that phone is not compatible with MMS :-(

  • I have bought that phone (29.90€) but it's not compatible with MMS :-(

  • White color is really good and moreover gives premium feel. But the back panel catches more dirt easily. The front panel is somewhat glossy and back panel is fully plastic. Keypad is smooth and easy to type except the 5 way navi key, since it is very small. Back panel is very slippery in which it tends to drop easily from ur hand. Thats all.

  • VGA - camera is execs. I think only mp3 is better.

  • no java ! wtf !

  • Hi I want to buy new mobile: nokia 130 2017. I already have a candy bar mobile in black color. So I want to buy this one in white color (for a change). Please, I need honest opinion: is white one good looking? Or, does it has any issues (like hard to text)? Kindly, I need opinion based on first hand usage. Thanks

  • sms storage capacity ?

  • no..

  • I think this phone has it. Go to Settings > Call Settings > Turn Call Recording On

  • can anyone tell if this phone support pdf files or not?

  • Nokia please add auto call record in your phones... it will increase your sale worldwide... every bookie needs auto call record in kepad phones

  • When attending a voice call, its making an annoying tone of call recording on Nokia 130 2017.

  • difficult to use 5 way navigation key (D pad) since it is too small and unable to press middle function key exactly...

  • I suggest not to buy the one with white keypad. In bright ambient light, when keypad back-light is on, keypad letters blends with the keypad color, rendering the letters hard to recognize. I don't know about the red, but I suggest you buy the black one.

  • No what's app or twitter...? Thank goodness for that...!

  • There is no option to install applications other than full versions of the games that came with it which you have to pay for (except Snake). It doesn't have internet access at all. Overall it is a good basic phone with very good battery life. So far I only charged it once since I bought it.

  • I really don't know man. There is no info about this on their website or the user manual. I tried tinkering with the menu and there is no info about message capacity either. Phonebook memory is 2000 though, so I'm guessing messages should be around a couple hundreds.

  • its a basic nokia phone without internet option. so there is no whatsap & twitter.

  • whats App & Twiter options.....????

  • yes

  • kindly specify sms storage capacity of this mobile? wil it be atleast 500 or only 30-100 for which i need it delete old msgs everyday to receive new msg

  • I just bought this phone 3 days ago and so far so good. The good things I like about it are: 1. Very good music player although the options are limited. Sound quality is sometimes better than low end android phones. Switching to another song is pretty fast. 2. Nice soft and fast typing keypad though I wish they made the navigation key a bit bigger. 3. Best of all USB charging and Data transfer! I'm glad they finally got rid of those fragile small pin chargers. Sometimes I even use this phone as a flash drive. Transfer files is pretty fast.

  • sms storage capacity ? how many can be stored in inbox ? wil it be atleast 500 ?

  • Does nokia 130 2017 has reverse forward function?

  • what about the SMS/messaging capacity? After a number of messages, should i delete some messages? In Nokia X2-02 phone, i never have any problem abou the sms capacity.

  • Nokia should start making 6310i model again!!!

  • Is this a serious question?

  • Is this phone a 4G phone?

  • is there fm recording option?

  • Can this phone play 3GP format videos?

  • Thanks for the info sir . Appreciate it.

  • No.its only the old style messaging. Yes it has a torchlight

  • Does this phone support vonversation mesaages? Does it have a flashlight?

  • How to adjust display brightness ?

  • I want to but this phone ..IN algeria..where van i find it

  • How to change calendar sunday should be the first?

  • Got mine today. 1. Very ok for me 2. Normal sms. I dont like thread.

  • Could anyone comment honestly on the following : 1. Call clarity (how clear and loud is the earpiece). 2.The SMS format. (normal SMS or thread). 3. Is there a way of backing up the SMS? Please, post honest opinions.

  • The design reminds me of Motorola Wx 180,C 139 and other small Moto devices. I have Nokia 130 (2014) and it is a very good phone.

  • camera is not useful in small screen but for me a good design in general

  • it is better with out the camera

  • When this mobile will be released in Pakistan?

  • how mani contect number call recorder sim contect show write sms insart number from contect nuber and lot of mor infarmetion must hou yousd cemra

  • Its a small screen, elders would find it difficult to read the letters in small screen.,

  • buy Nokia 6!

  • WHY so bad camera?

  • Yes it's available on Amazon

  • can anyone tell me if Nokia 105 or Nokia 130 (2017 versions) are available in India or not??? I want to buy one of this two mobile and use it as a backup device with my 4G smartphone. if anyone knows something please tell.

  • yes friends, I also liked those precious days with Nokia s40 series phones. those days were awesome.

  • s40 was better than s30PLUS idunno if new s30 better in some new features ... but s40 seems better i think Original S30 even is more classical and pure... this device could give a decent experience like old mystery nokia's phones ... from s30 such as 12xx to flagship Nx and etc

  • Yes, you are right! Thank you for posting this! Series 40 needs to be restored again and it is superior to Series 30+ !

  • Hi, Nokia, please make simple phone without camera for senior which can work on 3g 850/2100 mtz.on Telstra network .

  • You have every right to ask for a better and a more capable OS but the only thing that you must never demand it is a selfie camera since you sign with the nickname ''Frankenstein''... The specs are good,the price is good but the design is rather strange.

  • These S30+ phones would be ok if: 1. They supported a reasonable set of bluetooth profiles. Most so far have had only OPP, so no good for headphones or hands free or tethering. 2. They could install 3rd party apps. They should either bring back java apps like the old S40s, or get MediaTek (who provide the software on these phones), to release their SDK. MediaTek did used to make their SDK (the MRE SDK) available until a few years ago.

  • Series 40 > Series 30+. Someone needs to tell Nokia this.

  • There is a market for this phones in Asia and Africa

  • Why do nokia's feature phones look more and more like kid's toy

  • I didnt know that nokia still produce this kinds of phone.

  • just take out the camera module and increase a bit the battery capacity :/ nobody gonna use the camera btw :/ this phone is good as backup phone. wish it has 3g tho, at least we can get faster internet as a backup phone, not to mention this phone has microsd support and 3.5mm jack, should be ok for listening song lol

  • Be Careful, it is using 2G which soon will be phased out.

  • The design reminds Motorola & not Nokia. I have Nokia 130 (2014) and it is a nice phone. I believe that the new one will be also a nice one. Since Nokia upgraded the new version of 130 with camera unlike the old one and since Nokia upgraded the new version of 105 with a bigger display than the old ones then we can hope for a new Nokia 230 with 3G and 3.0'' display.

  • we only want is Nokia 3310 (2017) not that . looks ugley and that is not recognize by many people using nokia since 1999

  • Haha nice joke.

  • It's more like nokia 108(2017)

  • For a 20 eur it will be flagship of a year 2017. Shame to all other phones and brands :-)

  • feature phone with bezel less LOL it will great

  • Not bezel less? Disappointed!

  • I need N-gage please.

  • It's 20 euros feature phone, not smartphone. Unless its price is $300 thats what called stupid phone

  • better than Nokia 3310 2017
