INOI 288S – copy of Nokia 8800

Another new product from INOI, which went on sale last fall. Externally, the device is a copy of the Nokia 8800: the same design, mechanism and body material (metal). The model is available in two colors: silver and black. But at the same time, support for 2 SIM cards and the ability to increase storage capacity with a microSD card appeared.

All information is displayed on a compact 1.8-inch display with a TN matrix. The slider is equipped with a loud speaker and microphone for better call quality. Directly below the sliding screen is a compact mechanical keyboard that rises by pressing the side button.

The device operates on the SC6531E processor. It provides a smooth experience in the interface and applications. The built-in memory is only 32 MB, but if necessary, it can be expanded with a microSD card up to 16 GB.

INOI 288S is equipped with a 1.3 megapixel camera, which is folded inside the body and an FM receiver. There is also 2G ​​Internet access. Of course, you can’t watch high-quality videos on your phone, but it will open any website or instant messenger without any problems.

Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 (44,990 rubles)

What will delight this smartphone besides the “slider” form factor?

The Xiaomi model is interesting, for example, with its ceramic rear panel. It feels a little different from glass, but is more resistant to scratches. Mi Mix 3 not only supports wireless charging - it comes complete with the appropriate charger (and this is a unique feature of the model). You can also note the good quality of the camera, of which there are two on the front and back, NFC support and a high-quality AMOLED display. And, of course, the hardware platform is impressive: in Mi Mix 3, the Snapdragon 845 chipset can be combined not only with 6 or 8 GB of RAM, but even with 10.

What you have to come to terms with

Only the version with 6/128 GB of memory is officially supplied to Russia, but you will have to look for more powerful options on AliExpress. There is no slot for MicroSD in the model, nor is there a 3.5 mm headphone jack. The battery, meanwhile, is far from the most impressive - 3200 mAh.

Nokia 8110 4G – a tribute to traditions

A typical representative of Nokia smartphones of the outgoing generation. The device has an unusual curved display, and in yellow color it resembles a banana. The screen diagonal is small - 2.45 inches. At the bottom of the case there is a sliding keyboard. In addition, 4G support is announced, so the gadget is suitable not only for conversations and communication in instant messengers, but also for web surfing.

On the back of the Nokia 8110 there is a main camera with 2 megapixel resolution and a flash. There is also a fairly loud speaker located here. The device can also play MP3 audio and has a built-in FM radio. The package also includes GPS satellite navigation.

The model is equipped with a powerful battery for its size – 1500 mAh. Its charge lasts up to 600 hours of standby time. With moderate use, you will charge the battery no more than once a week.

Pros:

• autonomy;
• 4G support;
• creative design;
• reliable assembly;
• high-quality connection and loud speaker.

Minuses:

• no synchronization of contacts;
• functionality.

NOKIA 8110 4G

An excellent option for a push-button slider phone. The NOKIA 8110 4G definitely deserves first place in the rating of push-button phones.

NOKIA 8110 4G is the reincarnation of the ancient 8110 model released in 1996. The modern design of the phone is essentially a mini smartphone on the KaiOs operating system, with a small set of pre-installed applications and its own application store.

But you shouldn’t expect full-fledged VK, Viber and other instant messengers; this is not a fully Android device. You won’t find a touch screen, Play Market or other modern paraphernalia here. But you can install WhatsApp, and that’s cool.

Why do I recommend it for purchase?

1. The best push-button to date, priced at about 4500 ₽,
2. Low power consumption, will last a couple of weeks without charging,
3. High score according to survey results (9.5 points, 130 ratings),

5. Excellent reception quality, cellular signal is available everywhere,
6. Excellent sound quality in headphones,
7. There is a decent camera with a resolution of 2 megapixels,

10. Internet access via LTE and Wi-Fi, browser installed,
11. You can chat on WhatsApp and Facebook (without voice messages),
12. Possibility of installing non-standard firmware,
13. Easy exchange of contacts with smartphones and synchronization with Google account,
14. Can be used as an access point for distributing the Internet via Wi-Fi or cable.

Flaws

• It's a pity there is no NFC (NFS) to pay by card.
