This is the third device to bear the name Nokia 220 and, unlike the 2019 model, this one actually resembles the Nokia original.

HMD is still building old-school Nokia feature phones – well, not that old-school, this one has 4G and YouTube. This is the third device to bear the name Nokia 220 and, unlike the 2019 model, this one actually resembles the Nokia original.

The Nokia 220 4G (2024) has a large display for this type of phone, a 2.8” LCD. This is useful for the Cloud Apps features – these include full access to YouTube, even YouTube shorts. Other cloud apps bring news, weather and more to the phone.

Other entertainment options include Snake (of course), as well as an MP3 player (you will need a microSD card) and an FM radio. There is a 3.5mm headphone jack, so any wired headphones work.

You can go wireless too, as the Nokia 220 supports Bluetooth headphones and speakers. Other connectivity includes LTE with two SIM cards on board.

The 1,450mAh battery promises to go days between charges and charging is done with a USB-C cable. The battery is removable, so you can always carry a spare too, something that hasn’t been possible with smartphones for years.

The 220 is quite similar to the Nokia 235 4G (2024), except for one thing – it doesn’t have a camera. Not a huge loss, perhaps, considering that the 235 has a 2MP sensor, but still, the price difference between the two isn’t huge. Plus, there is still an LED on the back to be used as a flashlight.

The Nokia 220 4G (2024) is available in India starting today with an MSRP of ₹4,500, but if you visit the online store, you will see a ₹3,250 price tag. There are two colors available: Peach and Black.

Speaking of the Nokia 235 4G (2024), this is now available in India too (it first launched in Europe in April). It’s basically the same phone, except for the 2MP camera that we mentioned. Its MSRP is ₹5,000, but the price right now is ₹3,750 (₹500 more than the camera-less 220).

Note: according to the specs, the Cloud Apps services are not available in Europe and China, which is something to keep in mind if/when the 220 becomes available in those markets. This is already the case for the 235.
