This is my second “dumb-phone” after discarding the Nokia 8210 due to its poor sound quality. So the things the phone gets right: 1. Flip prevents main phone screen to remain relatively scratch free for longer than non-flip phones of this category. 2. Large buttons are great for someone with large fingers (like myself). 3. Sound quality is better than 8210. 4. Reasonable battery life. Now the negatives: 1. Absurd ergonomic phone design. Which design engineer was given a paycheck after designing the handleability of the phone? The smooth contours makes it difficult to even take it out of the pocket as there is no way to grip the phone. Opening the flip to answer a call is a mission since I sometimes struggle with it to the point of missing the call and having to call back. I get it that this is an entry level phone but surely you can find someone with some understanding of how a device like this needs to handle. Not that hard. 3. Same goes with the volume button on the side, since there is no groove nor grip on the phone, opening the flip almost always will press on the volume button and reduce the volume. I mean come on, engineering has come a long way since early 2000s, this should be an easy thing to spot during QA review. If you have a QA team doing that to begin with? 2. Sim lock – good Lord, why did you not have the press-fit lever mechanism that you have in 8210 included? It takes unnecessary amount of time to remove the sim from its current housing clip. Needless complexity. 3. Sound quality although better than 8210 by a long shot but still room for improvement. 4. Texting has never been my strong suit to date and I still resent it more on the old keypad form. But one thing that is glaringly bad is the UI that handles the messaging, this needs to be reviewed and updated as recurring text messages from same contact are difficult to separate as you scroll down, the date/time with each scroll down does not translate well enough for you to know where the last text ended and the new one began. I often get an appointment reminder from my doctor only for me to not be able to tell which day they said as there is a previous text coming in the way of the new one. Overall, the main selling feature of this phone is its simplicity and when you severely lack in the mere basic functions of the phone then you have a problem as a manufacturer. I do not care if there is a Facebook option in the phone or the awful snake rehash, all I want the dumb phone to do right is to make and receive phone calls properly and when you fail in that aspect then you have an issue. Much better experience then the awful 8210 but still a way away from having the ideal “dumb-phone” that gets all the basics right. 22 people found this helpful

The Nokia 2660 Flip is a practical and easy-to-use phone, perfect for those looking to disconnect from constant smartphone use. Its 2.8″ display and simple interface make it ideal for basic tasks like calling and texting, while the 4G connectivity keeps you connected when needed. The hearing aid compatibility (HAC) is a great feature for those with hearing difficulties. The built-in camera, MP3 player, and wireless FM radio provide entertainment, while classic games add a nostalgic touch. It’s a great option for anyone wanting a tech wind down or a reliable secondary phone for staying off the grid occasionally. 8 people found this helpful

I bought 2 of these for my twin daughters who went to secondary school for the first time. We were committed to not giving them smartphones just yet. These phones are ideal for keeping in contact with them but be aware of their limitations. They are unlocked and accept multiple SIMs. The battery lasts for days. We bought SIMs with no data and plenty of free calls and texts. We also bought roaming so that they can stay in contact during holidays in Europe. The camera is pretty rubbish and they internal memory is terrible. You need to add an SD card to prevent the phone from running out of memory. Is this a great phone? No it’s not. it is perfect for what we wanted? Yes it is. Oh, and it has an updated version of the old Nokia snake game
Last point, if you are really interested in your younger kids being Smartphone Free then speak to you local group or get in touch via the school. You can always search the web for smartphonefreechildhood to see what’s happening with local authorities and government regulations on social media. 20 people found this helpful

Needed a simple 4G mobile for a friend. Looked at a few, but either not 4G or to complicated, did not require all the apps. Came across this Nokia model tried it out myself very impressed. Clam shaped phone so screen is protected when not used. As Clam shaped small and easy to store. Easy to read screen, big buttons, just open it up to answer the call. Easy to hold operate. To charge has the Miro-UBS socket, minus point, should be the universal C socket. As an extra from Nokia a mains charger is availble, to store the phone in. Like a landline phone so it charges at the same time. Battery comes separate from the phone in the box to fit in the phone. Easy to do. Battery lasts a long time. You can buy extra ones from Nokia for about £16.00. Some one complained the camera was no good. For the price and market it’s for your not going to have a quality camera. Another review mentioned the rocker switch on the camera case too easy to press by mistake. I agree. Sort that out and a C socket for charging and you have a good cheap mobile. 60 people found this helpful

Verified Purchase Good flip phone with big buttons Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 May 2024 Colour: Pink Quite large flip phone with big buttons (would suit older users?). It is quite large and heavy, but the fit and finish are good. It is let down by a rather poor quality main screen. One person found this helpful

Bought this Nokia as a dumb phone for myself as I was getting bored and started hating smartphones. It does the job has all the apps you need like WhatsApp, Google and Facebook. However, the design of the phone was not for me. The phone is extremely light, plasticky, and overall feels cheaply made. The buttons are large, and the screen size is adequate. Despite its flaws, the phone’s battery life is impressive, lasting for a few days on a single charge. Additionally, the call quality is excellent, with clear and crisp soundand being a 4G phone. The phone also has a low pixel camera that takes decent photos in well-lit environments. Overall, while the design may not be appealing to some, this Nokia phone offers reliable performance and essential features. 33 people found this helpful
