Nokia 800 Tough - User Reviews

  • ir contact stored in Gmail in this phone like smartphone?

  • It turned me off too

  • I checked this on ebay and selling this almost $200? WTF? I'll just buy Samsung Galaxy A50 for this.

  • This is not a smartphone. You should have conducted some research before buying it. This phone is powered by Kai OS which is a curated version of Firefox OS specifically developed for smart feature phones. Don't compare apples with oranges. If WhatsApp calling feature isn't available on Kai OS it has nothing to do with Nokia or Kai OS developers. It entirely depends on WhatsApp team to introduce or withdraw any app related features, since they are the only ones who have discretionary control over this application. Think before you speak and think before you buy, Stop shooting blames in all directions and take the responsibility. Kai OS phones are Smart Feature phones not smartphones.

  • Come to papa little piglet, you are already oficially available in my country so I know what will do tomorrow with my 120€

  • Got mine on Ebay

  • Is it unlocked,where did you get yours sir

  • Hello, Will the UK single SIM version still have room for memory card or do you need the dual SIM version for SIM card and memory card? Thanks

  • Had this phone for three days now. The operating system was difficult to comprehend after my Nokia 3310 (2017)....however; having almost got the hang of it I can say that as a phone it is BRILLIANT ! Crystal clear conversation and good camera. HOWEVER....one of the reasons I bought it is because at age73 I was informed that I needed whatsapp....in this department it fails miserably.It's able to send pictures and videos but one cannot have a conversation. My daughter in NZ tried to call me and her phone (an I- phone) stated that my Nokia doesn't support whatsapp calls. So.....not good for whatsapp. I was assured by the vendor that the phone would hold up to 1500 contacts....it does not ! Only 1000.....so I had to delete 301 which as it happens wasn't a bad idea as I have lost touch with Churchill and Nelson amongst others. The phone is a robust engineering masterpiece....so at £115.00....taken in to account the above....GO FOR IT ! Whilst I am at it...currently in negotiation with NOKIA AFTERCARE over my 3310 which they state is still under warranty.....don't waste your time...THEY ARE UTTERLY USELESS ! Hopefully a class action of disgruntled owners will gee them in to action ???

  • I have it on pre-order, already bought the protector for the screen. I am so sad that this phone has a camera. It's 2019 no one gives a **** for a camera on this type of phones. I don't want to see such a thing on high quality phone like Nokia. I do hope that I can remove some of the applications on the menu. After all this phone will never ever going to be connected to internet so it's pointless to have app like Facebook and so on in the menu when they are pointless. I dont't understand why there is no info how long will the battery last with no internet but we have options like 4G,3G when this a type of phone which you use with no connection to internet. I do hope that there is someone from Nokia who reeds feedback - please remove camera from phones. Place camera only on bad phones like smartphones.

  • Okay...then tell us more about the phone bro..we wish to know

  • Bought Nokia 800 Tough at Harvey Norman for $199.

  • You dead bro?

  • Where did you get it and how much bro and how's the speaker quality

  • How's the speaker quality man? I'm looking for feature phone that has both loud sound and great quality

  • Agreed. I hope KaiOS keeps improving, it would be good to have more choices as a phone buyer

  • Purchased yesterday. You have to see it to believe how good this phone is. Nokia all the way.

  • Really want to know, does KaiOS support VPN connections?

  • Yes the processor couldve been a better one. But of the lack of even basic features makes this phone a let down and disappointment. A better camera and a USC c wouldn't have cost much, the price would have went up by a few or 10 dollars. That isn't much when the phone costs over 100 already. So I don't understand why Nokia didn't include them in this device. A camera is such a important feature in 2019

  • Ok,800 tough,8810 gb and 2720 flip are the same phone,except the form factor.....They have the same hardware,kaios and the same possibilities(hot spot,App store,contacts sync,radio,wifi,etc).......I have the 8810 from the July of 2018 and it cost 80€!!!!!I mean they are a little bit expensive.....And is 2019,so they should have a little bit upgraded,i mean more ram,stronger cpu,better cameras,those things,are very cheap now.....

  • pro: - the fact they make a t9 phone in 2019 - it tough - running kaiOS con: - too tall, give it 130mm tall - too expensive, 60 buck is what i paid for this - 28nm processor could have using a modern one might get more battery life from it - can we use usb type c already? - didn't have a dedicate top-mounted flashlight - nip picking: kaios still semi-smart at least 1gb of ram, people might not bother to buy extra micro sd so would be nice for having 16gb for music storage, 2.4 inch is bit too small would be nice if 3 inch screen, need bluetooth 5, no nfc for modern transaction and give it some kind of infrared for remote control

  • You should made this with a USB type C Nokia..

  • this is one of the best comment so far. Thanks man.

  • it's use for making and receiving phone calls girl. If your onto selfie and video calls. Get yourself a lollipop for an iphone or any flagship phone. Do you know how to make a phone call?

  • when this phone will be available in the United States

  • more than 200,000 people view this phone even though its just a T9 keypad phone. Nokia is still a legend.

  • This phone for selling or for showing ??

  • I love it so much

  • Why Nokia Why!!! Only 2 mp camera This is not 2009 for god's sake. Just because a VGA and 2 MP sensor exists doesn't mean you put that in every feature phone you make. When will you finally move on to at least 5 MP camera ? This is so disappointing. I have been a loyal Nokia fan since years, purchased 3 Nokia smartphones this year already and this is how you treat your fans and years old loyal customers ? By giving outdated USB micro and a poor 2 megapixel camera in your latest phones ? Agree this is not a smartphone but everyone needs a decent camera, regardless of Kai OS or Android. When will you guys finally learn

  • It is obvious that if you want a great device, you have to pay for it. I would say the price is sufficient. It is a great device, but I wish it had at least 5 MP Camera, Built in FM Antenna and Radio Transmitter. Thanks Nokia.

  • Where can I buy one?

  • i love it

  • Yeah, the price is quite high, for a feature phone-smartphone hybrid. Price should definitely drop soon.

  • Water-resistant, not waterproof. It's impossible for electronics to be waterproof, water-resistance implies that there's a limit.

  • Nothing like it...

  • try Greenhills

  • When well be avalable in palestine

  • Might consider it at some point. Like the camo :)

  • Love it waterproof

  • Already available

  • Nokia 6220c ??

  • Is better the CAT B35

  • Is already available in many countries by now. That one was from Vietnam. Is been drop tested and reviewed already in some videos, you can search on yt. Probably the review wasn't fair instead of the device being real or not. The device was real. Well wait for more such tests. Hopefully it'll be as tough as it's claimed to be

  • pretty sure plenty of journalists/reviewers already have some units ;)

  • the nokia 800 tough is Not released yet, so it was just a Fake Nokia he tested probably they are a lot of them (Piracy) in Communist Countries

  • When will it be available in Nigeria

  • When will this be available in the Philippines?

  • Totally true... It lasts 43 days on standby and a few hours of talk time... crazy right?

  • Can you give the video link?

  • This is kind of thing I miss so much, waiting for it dearly

  • Battery Life is true??????????

  • u r absolutely right .. me to for E52 or like that

  • So the Nokia 800 'tough' phone got tested in a few videos, they're on YouTube. A Vietnamese guy did the test and uploaded the results, thanks to him. And to my surprise this thing is rather fragile lol. Just after a few drops the display went bad. What an irony, this supposedly tough phone isn't tough at all! With every fall the SIM tray would come loose and the phone would restart or hang, which is disappointing and to add insult to injury, the display just went bad after a few drops, the battery started to heat up and expand. What a failure of a rugged phone, especially from Nokia. Shame. I'm not even making this up, go check the YouTube and you'll see for yourself. The truth is out

  • Exactly my opinion. They should've provided the latest charging port which is basic in today's phones and even some Bluetooth earphones. So it may not have increased cost by a lot. Strange, why the company decided to put an old port in a 2019 phone. Also the camera is from 2007 phones. Weird, Nokia giving outdated features in latest range of products.

  • Not putting the latest charging port , type c usb is a major blunder, in my opinion. And that funny 2 mp camera of decade old phones. Nokia how can you do this to your loyal fans ☹️

  • Gtu, but I think you have put it 5 megapixel camera and make it this phone waterproof also, so this will be tough and water resistant... And make his speakers like 6233 my favourite phone ever...

  • Excellent phone by Nokia but really disappointed to see USB micro and the 2 megapixel camera. Why in 2019, Nokia ?! You could've put at least a 5 MP in it. Just because it's a feature phone doesn't mean people don't click photos and no USB C ? I'm so disappointed. It would've increased the price by hardly 20 euros by adding these features but the customers would have a much better, complete device. Lack of these basic features severely hamper it's desirability and utility. Now I must carry a separate camera to click photos in my outdoor trips. And what in the world I'm going to do with a 2 megapixel cam ? Can't click a decent picture. And now micro USB being so rare I'll have to carry an extra cable everywhere I go. Great job Nokia. I wanted to buy this, and I would've even at 150 bucks, only if it had a better camera, but now I don't think I would. Good idea, but poor execution by creating such a phone without basic features

  • plz any one it’s phone user tell me,,, how many long it's phone call list,,,,,,,,,that means,,, dialcall,,, missed call,,,,, receive call ,, total,,,,advance thanx👋

  • Will this be released in the US?

  • It is really a shame this phone is not equipped with usb-c instead of micro usb which will soon be considered very obsolete. I want to be able to use the same chargers for all my equipment.

  • why not good camera? small screen does not mean you dont want to make good photos to look in computer or tv screen.

  • Right 👌👍

  • Me too

  • Wow.. It's like Beast.. Appreciate it Nokia.. Good work, there are many people in this world they want still these type phones and likes it. Great work Nokia!!

  • Is Jio sim compatible with this.....

  • Throwing a solar panel on the back will push the phone way more up in the consumer eye.

  • Price will be must 150 eur😄

  • Dear Nokia i wana new Nokia E52. plzzzzz

  • yes please

  • Wireless charging is an odd feature but is necessary for every tough phone. Flaps over charging ports, are achillis' heal for these tough type phones. I had a samsung marine b2100, Flaps break off after few months of usage, then you are left with a bulky, overpriced for its features, phone, which granted won't die of daily usage no matter how much you want to replace it, but because of exposed charging port can't survive water, dirt, sand, salt etc. Which it was advertised to do so.

  • Dear nokia, We expect if you make a new Xpress Music small phone with new android features

  • Please tell me which Nokia java phone is best for Watching Movies on Hd or at least 480 p....Plz recommend me the best nokia phone....I would be Thankful...

  • Which Quality of video we can view??And which nokia java phone is best for films in Hd or 480 p....Plz tell me

  • KaiOS has limilations...

  • nokia where you are going?come on and manufacture featured mobile having specification at least like nokia 1.1.

  • S60 was written in C (or other low level language), you could develop native apps in it as well, Qt library was ported and supported. Java was supported as well, via a quite complete JVM. Python was also supported and for some equivalent programs the it was actually faster than java. At the end the S60 was very complete and efficient, but the age also made it quite bloated and complex to maintain. Nokia underspec'ed their devices, making it look like android os was much better, all simply because it had 4 times more Ram and better CPUs. Interface wise symbian was poorly designed for touch devices. Features wise android only became mature enough at versions 4.4 or so... And even now it still seems that something is missing in Android that symbian had. KaiOS seems nice, but quite limited. The fact that it is a somewhat closed ecosystem is not great and it seems to be mainly driven by ads. In a way feels like it is a recycled FirefoxOS, although it looks promising, they need to open the platform a bit more to attract developers. All considered, the Nokia 800 tough with kaiOS doesn't look too bad, but with the old S60 would be awesome even if outdated. GerthaOS (not sure if that's the correct name) would be nice to get for such device.

  • Good move NOKIA...I am very interested but I wait on viber and better camera.Its not problem to give 50$ more for better camera.Many user going to switch to NOKIA if you do what I said....Many people are tired of Android and IOS and big screen!!!!!!

  • Nokia 800 Tough: smart and tough feature phone.

  • Regions available?

  • You are quite young i guess? In year 2004 then they started with 3G phones that had a Sefie camera so you could call Video-Calls, it was meant for Deaf people but it became very popular, so ”video calling” is nothing new haha

  • If you want a selfie cam, just buy a smartphone. Feature phones are not made for that.

  • But it has T9/Predictive Text Which none of the Cat-Phones i have had have had

  • If they develop their s60 and s40 again it will be definitely better than KaiOS. because those OS were written in JAVA

  • Why don't have a selfie front camera 2 megapixel and main camera would be 2,4 or 5 megapixel.I'm just waiting for the next coming new nokia maybe 2020 or 2021

  • I never saw this coming! The Nokia 220 4G isn't even out yet!

  • KaiOS is future of feature phone! O3O

  • Wherez net browser detail?

  • Awesome battery backup with waterproof. very useful for adventure people like riders, climbers, etc.

  • So Funny. Nokia Company is going to die.

  • Might be, but well, is at least better then you

  • doesn't this have more battery life?

  • Almost. This one just happened to support more network bands. More of a world phone than the Cat.

  • It has a dedicated card slot, up to 32Gb.

  • This "epic" military Nokia phone is just an 1:1 copy of the Cat B35 model - litterally it has the same hardware, software and prize like Cat B35 with the difference that Nokia's model is heavier, fatter, bigger and with smaller battery than the B35, and is realised exactly one year later... Total plagiarism of side of HMD Global 😤

  • Piece of garbage. You have a feature phone but it doesn't have any dedicated memory card slot. price is 110bucks WTF?

  • Great Device from Nokia...

  • Are you gonna use it like a Galaxy Note 10+ 5G 2019 with Spen? :/

  • Nokia 800 tough is the best phone by Hmd/Nokia.

  • Oh boy, here it is. Nokia 3310's son. This will be the true successor of the Nokia 3310. Mark my words.

  • U make me feel like back to 2005

  • Resources are similar to Nokia 8110 4G but battery capacity is best.

  • HMD has gone nuts. It is bigger than iPhone 8 (except for width). Excuse me, but WTH? Almost not a single manufacturer can make a compact smartphone, but now they can't make a compact phone? Damn, that's something awful. Look at Nokia 5100 or Siemens M75, damn.

  • Don't worry, it does.

  • I need this tank!

  • Now this is what i have been waiting for, although this will cost me my whole Month salary here in Nigeria but its worth it.. Hopefully its available in Nigeria.... Nokia and Samsung have always been my brand but always go for Samsung Smartphone and Nokia Feature phone

  • only 4gb rom and 512mb ram? oh dear!...

  • This one looks tough...probably Hulk can't smash this.

  • so I need that one!

  • The real 3310 replacement...

  • Does it have a wifi Hotspot? Would be perfect for a second sim when travelling.

  • I prefer Nokia 800 tough than Cat B35.

  • This is stronger than the old Nokia 3310. It reminds me of Siemens M75,but this is even tougher. Nokia 800 tough=tougher than the rest! This one is great.

  • Nokia is so inventive they copied the b35 with lesser battery

  • Nice rip off of the Cat B35 which is already in market for a year, with bigger battery and less big for the same money..

  • I want someting like that but with better camera...That is all what i need..Many People will change iphone and android mobilephone to this...Trust me!!!!!

  • KaiOS is the problem, its like high school students graduation project it doesn't have block numbers or calls with whatsapp, contacts synchronization its so primitive OS.

  • The NOKIA wordmark below the screen and above the keypad... anyone else recall the same thing back on N95 8GB and N81 N82 N78 N96 N85

  • I can't wait for the review of this phone here. nokia 800 tough guess! amazing

  • This one if you drop it, it will break not only the planet Earth, but the entire universe! BE CAREFUL!

  • Love u nokia,,,,such a strong phone,,,

  • Is it sync from Google contracts?

  • Any opinions about how it compares to the Cat B35? Specs sheets are amazingly similar to each other

  • looks promising. nostalgic

  • You know it's gonna be tough when it's made by Nokia and it has the word tough in its name

  • My parents miss these types of phones. I kind of want to buy one for them. I hope it release in america.

  • A tank, like most of older Nokias. Homage to the 6250, 5210 and 5100?

  • Am buying this phone, looks rough and tough, am tired of moving around with tv(mobile phone above 5.5 display)
