Push-button phones are interesting. The best push-button phones with Internet access

In 2016, phones with a full keyboard look a little more modern than fragments of a mammoth in the Zoological Museum of St. Petersburg. Of course, you can find rare keyboard models on Yandex.Market, but they are produced only by old-wave vendors, as if apologizing for the fact that the whole world has already switched to touch screens.

Today's push-button phones- These are monstrously simplified devices, made, as a rule, from the cheapest plastic, equipped with the most primitive cameras and the most grainy screens.

Question “Which phone with buttons do you recommend?” I hear about once a month and I never have an answer. We have to talk about the advantages of a touch screen and explain that pointing your fingers at the screen is more convenient than moving the cursor with a joystick. Some interlocutors agree, but there are also those for whom the prolonged trend of abandoning physical keys is a disaster.

I can also understand these people: push-button devices had advantages that are appropriate to remember a month before the tenth anniversary of the first iPhone.

Below is a list loaded with nostalgia.

Siemens SX1

The most daring, original and underrated smartphone of its time. SX1 came out at the end of 2003 and broke absolutely all the molds: firstly, it had Symbian 6.1 (the prerogative of Nokia), and secondly, the buttons were located on the sides, and not at the bottom of the display.

Due to the unusual form factor and high price ($700 at launch, with the average phone price tag around 200 bucks), sales of the SX1 were not outstanding. But then Siemens lowered the price (first to 500, and then to 250 dollars) and produced a bunch of specialized versions.

Seriously, I don’t know of any other gadget that is so actively used as a Limited Edition. I trust Wikipedia more than memory, so I’ll quote a fact from there: SX1 came out in 11 official modifications, not counting operator's ones. The smartphone was decorated with carbon fiber and kangaroo leather, pumped up in honor of the Formula 1 stages, equipped with a cover with GPS and (attention!) an ingenious laser keyboard.

At the same time, SX1 is my main pain point. I began to be interested in technology in the fall of 2005, when finding this device in Russia was already problematic. As a result, I took the fat and weak Rover PC Sendo X1 with the same Symbian 6.1, and then suffered with it for a year and a half.

Siemens C65

This phone was the icon of all stores that sold used gadgets.

Initially, Siemens C65 was sold absolutely everywhere and cost less than 4,000 rubles, so they bought it for children. The further scenario was sad: drug addicts of the 2000s regularly snatched devices from schoolchildren and took them to a buying house in order to earn money for a new dose. This fate spared me, but two classmates lost their C65s in exactly this way - they walked into a dark arch, saw a knife in front of them, got scared, and turned their pockets out.

The C-Class was considered a total economy, but the cheap C65 was almost as good as either the CX65 or C75. The only weak point of this beautiful blue phone was the camera: 0.11 megapixels is now difficult to imagine even in the front modules.

It was very easy to get used to the C65: people used it for years, and when the time came for an update, they were terribly surprised that Siemens no longer produced phones.

Nokia N-Gage

The craziest smartphone made by Nokia. In 2003, it was believed that users should be surprised, and the Finns designed a pocket game console with phone function. The screen was dim, there was no camera at all, the battery lasted only a few hours, games were needed fish from forums, and the buttons were located inconveniently.

But no one cared: crowds of spectators always gathered around gamers from N-Gage.

Then the smartphone came out in version QD(without radio and player) and became very cheap. When I look at the N-Gage in 2016, I realize how much progress changes the perception of things. Eleven years ago, this console seemed like the pinnacle of technology, but now it looks like an antediluvian monstrosity with a disproportionately tiny screen.

Sony Ericsson W800i

The phone that received the best promotion in 2005. If the K750i was immediately positioned as a strict camera phone, then the W800i SE, which is identical in function, did a smarter job: it was made the most versatile flagship on the market.

Bright, expensive and multimedia (another word from the 2000s), the W800i appeared on the cover of the Svyaznoy catalog, and in photographs in online reviews it appeared either with headphones (Sony Walkman, that’s all) or with speakers (they generally caused an orgasm).

W800i looked at the same time youthful and expensive– this was his main advantage. I sincerely envy those who bought it in the first months of sales: I can imagine the bliss these lucky ones felt when opening the box and removing the film from the screen.

Sony Ericsson P990i

A smartphone that proves that touchscreen and keyboard are compatible. In 2006, the SE P990i was located on such catalog pages that it was scary to enter - at first they asked for 3 average Russian salaries for the device.

I got to know the P990i from other people's reviews and always got angry when someone called the model slow, although in fact it was (64 MB of RAM).

Absolutely everything about this device attracted me: a giant screen, a stylus, a physical keyboard, a lid with a number pad, a control wheel, keys for the player - the P990i was stuffed to the limit and therefore unique.

The smartphone did not break the sales of Nokia gadgets only because of the exorbitant price and a strange version of the OS, for which it was difficult to find the necessary applications.

Samsung D880 Duos

The phone that changed the entire market in Russia: it was after Duos that dual-SIM phones and smartphones began to be produced en masse.

At the same time, the D880 itself, developed, as it turned out, specifically for our country, was average in terms of functions and weak in terms of price (it was overpriced), but ideal in terms of reliability. My D880 is still alive: its slider mechanism has not become loose, the camera has not become dirty, and the battery has not deteriorated. True, the markings on the buttons have worn off, but this is the only drawback after eight years.

Nokia 6700

The phone that is currently missing. Nokia 6700 – embodiment classic push-button device: steel body, reasonable price, excellent bright screen, camera with autofocus, support for memory cards, normal battery - in general, no overload. The only drawback is a dash in the “Wi-Fi” column.

This model has not been on sale for a long time, because the limit for a modern phone with keys is 4-5 thousand rubles. In 2013, they tried to sell Nokia 515 at a higher price, and it ended in failure: the device was severely criticized for zero functionality with an inflated price tag.

Accordingly, it won’t be possible to revive the 6700 either: it’s more profitable to stamp plastic bricks with touchscreens.

Nokia N73

Phone with best keyboard in history. By N-Series standards, the N73 was an ordinary gadget (except for music), but fans of ICQ (and other instant messengers) highly appreciated the model precisely because of its chic buttons. They were conveniently located, they had an excellent ride, and no one ever doubted the T9 from Nokia. As a result, typing speed was almost the same as using a computer keyboard.

At some point (closer to the end of the 2000s), the N73 dropped in price to 10 thousand rubles and became a popular hit: it was swept off the shelves, despite the massive penetration of cheap touchscreen phones from the Samsung Star line.

Nokia E72

I have a very positive and respectful attitude towards BlackBerry, but apparently I didn’t catch the moment when smartphones of this brand were popular in Russia. Perhaps Canadians did not realize the potential in our country due to the influence of Nokia, because the Finns loved to release QWERTY flagships.

The best of them, it seems to me, is not the omnivorous fat E90, but the stylish metal one E72. It had a cool touch joystick, a phenomenally ergonomic keyboard (even for one hand), a decent camera, decent sound and a divine battery. The E72 could hold a charge for four days - this did not bother anyone. Another advantage was the hard glass - the screen of the 72nd model always survived drops.

At the start, a QWERTY monobloc cost about 20 thousand, and when it became cheaper, it became useless to anyone: iPhones poured into Russia.

Mobile phones with buttons are gradually being replaced by functional smartphones. The older generation, far from touch interfaces, prefers improved classics. But young people buy modern devices, mistakenly believing that a push-button telephone cannot do anything other than perform its main function.
Is it so? Not at all. Phones with buttons are not becoming a thing of the past, but, on the contrary, they are being improved. Today the market is flooded with devices that are designed not only for calls and messages. They have almost the same functions of a pocket computer as smartphones.

Various resources that specialize in collecting data about a particular product provide information. And we based our rating on it. best models push-button phones.

No. 1. Nokia 515

The phone, released by Nokia (now Microsoft) in mid-2015, is a classic with modern features. The model, which has a “hello from the past” design, is actually improved and equipped with expanded functionality.


Specifications:
  • Series 10 - like this operating system This phone model works.
  • The size of the push-button device is 114.1 x 48.1 x 11.1 mm.
  • The phone weighs about 100 grams.
  • The body material is the main difference between the phone. The monolithic body made of smooth metal creates special strength.

The main functions inherent in a smartphone are also found in a push-button device:

  • There are applications for all popular social networks.
  • It is possible to receive and send letters from email box, having previously synchronized it with the email program that is built into the phone.
Nokia 515 is the last of the Mohicans. After the company was purchased by the giant Microsoft, the “party policy” was changed: the era of push-button phones was over. It probably shouldn’t be for a giant corporation to produce simple phones...

No. 2. Samsung GT-S5611

One of the best models of phones with buttons. Unlike the previous device, Nokia 515, it has a modern design. Rich functionality is also present.


What's special about the phone:
  • Camera: 5 MP with LED flash, allowing you to do not only nice pictures, but also video.
  • The autofocus system is preinstalled and turns on simultaneously with the camera.
  • High quality 2.5" LCD screen.
  • Battery capacity 1000 mAh. You can actively use your phone (call, write, take pictures and videos with your camera, communicate via in social networks, watch multimedia files) for about four days without charging.

The phone also has 2nd and 3rd generation mobile communication technology, which makes it possible to use the Internet efficiently. But there is no wireless, Wi-Fi, network or Near Field Communication technology. The push-button model of the device operates on the SNMP operating system developed by the manufacturer itself. There is also a synchronization function that allows you to use information that is on your personal computer.

No. 3. Samsung C3592

Another push-button model of the “folding” type from the same manufacturer. The 2.4-inch display allows you to read the screen and view pictures. There is support for two SIM cards at once.

Folding phones have an advantage: their screen is protected by the case from external influences and from falls. True, such devices are almost never produced now. The case is also reliable: made of plastic covered with a metal base.


Eat pre-installed application, allowing you to work with social networks, including Facebook and Twitter. And to access the network, a fast one is used Opera browser mini version. With this reviewer, surfing turns into a comfortable walk.

For lovers mobile games There are a dozen applications from the Gameloft studio.

Phone specifications and features:

  • Dimensions: 5.1x10.1x1.7 cm.
  • Weight: 100 grams.

The downside is that the font is not very large, the volume cannot be adjusted, and the memory is small.

No. 4. Philips Xenium X1560

Philips mobile devices are popular because they have a stylish design, good functionality and a unique platform.

Key advantages of the company's push-button telephone:

  • The use of two SIM cards is supported.
  • A powerful 2900 mAh battery allows you to actively use your phone (Internet, communication, video) without charging for five days.
  • You can install another memory card in the additional slot.
  • You can transfer files between phones using Bluetooth technology.


The Xenium X1560 case, although made of plastic, is covered with a metal base, so it is reliable and durable. It is possible to synchronize the device with personal computers and listen to online radio without connecting headphones. In general, the Philips phone looks simple in appearance, but its functionality allows it to be considered a mini-smartphone.

The device has such a platform that you don’t have to recharge it long time. 2nd generation wireless telephone technology makes it possible to connect to the Internet and comfortably browse websites.

No. 5. Nokia 6700 Classic

Nokia, before it was bought by Microsoft, eagerly produced phones with buttons. Simple design, improved functionality, solid foundation, convenient use captivated consumers who prefer the good old classics modern technologies. And Nokia 6700 is just a classic phone with convenient buttons and a simple interface.


The push-button model operates on the Series 40 6th Edition platform.

Specifications:

  • 5 megapixel camera.
  • Headset for stereo sound, charging, large memory card.
  • GPS receiver.
  • Good sound quality.
  • Convenient interface without unnecessary elements.
Nokia made all its phones not with plastic, but with metal cases. Yes, they made the devices heavier, but they were durable and reliable, and retained their appearance for a long time. No matter how much the Nokia 6700 classic falls, it will still look the same. At least there is no obvious damage.

This model has a push-button telephone good camera with an auto focus system and LED flash, allowing you to high quality photos, 2592×1944 pix, regardless of the time of day.

No. 6. BlackBerry Q10

The Canadian company BlackBerry knows how to make phones, push-buttons and smartphones, just like Nokia did in its time. The Q10 button device is called a smartphone because it comes with all the features and also has a stylish and modern design. The advantages of this model also include a durable body and great Internet capabilities.


Specifications:
  • Screen: Super AMOLED.
  • RAM: 2 GB.
  • Cameras: rear (8 megapixels, video 1920×1080), front (2 megapixels, video 720p). There is portrait shooting and an autofocus system that turns on instantly.
  • There is a wireless, Wi-Fi, network for comfortable and fast surfing.
  • Files are transferred to devices via an improved version of Bluetooth.
  • There is USB and the ability to synchronize information with a personal computer.
The buttons are laid out in an unusual way, similar to those found on computer keyboards, and this is a key feature of BlackBerry phones.

It is very convenient to communicate via SMS or on social networks, since text is typed quickly on such a keyboard.

To make it more convenient to send emails and communicate on networks, on websites and forums, it is better to use a pre-installed program. The messenger must first be synchronized with mail and services.

The QWERTY smartphone running the BlackBerry operating system has a good player where you can listen to music, play video games, watch videos and even edit images. A powerful camera allows you to take high-quality video and photography.

In short, the Q10 is very similar to a smart smartphone, but unlike it, it has a push-button interface rather than a touch one.

Push-button phones are simple and reliable devices, undeservedly forgotten behind the multitude of smartphones. Despite the many high-tech devices on the market, they are still in demand and are still being produced at the limits of their design. In our article we will look at:

  • Rating of the 7 best push-button cell phones of 2018 - 2019 with a good camera, battery and screen, according to experts.
  • Comparative characteristics of the presented models.
  • Rating of devices according to Internet users.
  • Features of choosing devices of this class.

Rating of the TOP 7 best push-button phones of 2018 – 2019!

“Push-button devices,” as a rule, are inexpensive and high-quality things that are suitable for those who, for one reason or another, do not want to purchase a smartphone. Many people need a device for making calls, and not a multifunctional computer the size of a palm. And below we will give a rating of the best devices of this class in 2018.

BQ BQ-3201 OPTION

A fairly modern push-button phone with a high-quality camera, despite only 1.3 megapixels, a large 3.2″ screen and a good 1750 mAh battery. The phone also has a built-in TV tuner, which gives a good picture on such a screen. In active mode, loaded as fully as possible, the device works for up to three days, in idle mode it holds a charge for up to two weeks.

  • high-capacity battery (1750 mAh);
  • good camera (1.3 MP);
  • large and clear display (3.2″);
  • TV tuner.
  • limited functionality - only a minimum set of functions;
  • small phone book.

Price: 2000-2500 rub.

A good dialer is not easy with a large screen, and also with a TV .

Manufacturers are reluctant to provide push-button phones with modern functionality. Basically, models in a classic case are designed for utilitarian use and do not imply the introduction of the latest technologies. And yet, the demands of connoisseurs of devices with a keyboard are growing as smartphones master new options. And if fans of traditional mobile phones for the most part do not think about high performance, broad communication capabilities and navigation tools, their requirements are increasing with regard to the usual functionality. In particular, a considerable part of users are looking for a feature phone with a good camera and at an affordable price. Seems like a huge market mobile devices It's full of cameras with shooting capabilities, but in reality you can count the quality models on your fingers.

Basic requirements for phones with a camera

When buying a mobile device, it is difficult to focus on only one characteristic, ignoring everything else. Nevertheless, for many this is enough, since basic functions such as making calls and sending SMS are supported by any device today. What should you pay attention to when choosing a shooting device? First of all, the number of pixels. Of course, this is not a guarantee of a certain level of quality, but, for example, a 5 MP gadget will obviously outperform a 2 MP model. In addition, a feature phone with a good camera should have at least basic tools in the form of shooting settings. This could be a set of filters, different photographing modes, delay capabilities, etc. Modern devices also allow shooting with autofocus, optical zoom, and backlighting.

Nokia 515

Finnish developers in old times were famous for their excellent push-button models. Many of the first devices are still in use by careful owners, which testifies to the quality of the products of this brand. IN in this case The 515 model is noteworthy. It is a nice-looking and compact gadget equipped with a 5-megapixel camera. The module will offer the ability to digital zoom and LED flash, which will allow you to take decent quality pictures, but nothing more. Still, the lack of autofocus limits the functionality of the device. Those who want a push-button cell phone with a good camera from a reliable manufacturer should recommend this particular device. However, this model does not have advanced options in terms of video and photography. It is rather aimed at versatility in using modern capabilities of mobile devices, as evidenced by the well-implemented multimedia part.

Nokia E6

It should be noted right away that, unlike other models in this review, this device belongs to the category of smartphones. The peculiarity of the E6 is that the model is equipped with a keyboard, and in the original design. As for the camera, judging by its characteristics, it promises quality at the level of a camera, albeit a budget one. It is also worth considering that this is an inexpensive feature phone with a good camera when compared with its competitors. So, if the price of the 515 model can reach 10 thousand rubles, then the E6 will cost 2-3 thousand less.

So, the model has an 8-megapixel module, the function of which is supported by 2x zoom and LED backlight. Autofocus is again not provided, but if you need a device solely for shooting, then you should choose this option from Nokia. Push-button in this design is rare. Needless to say, even 5 MP versions are not available from every manufacturer. However, the practice of using this phone shows that the quality of the pictures does not reach 8 megapixels.

Philips X5500

This is one of best representatives Xenium line, which is equipped not only with a decent camera, but also with a capacious battery. The device will also appeal to connoisseurs of “indestructible” devices that are designed for use in harsh conditions.

The model is equipped with a 5 MP camera module. As an optional extra, the company provided autofocus and a photo flash, but the developers abandoned digital zoom. This is not an ideal option specifically for shooting, but if you need a feature phone with a good camera and battery, then this is the choice you should make. All competitors that are superior to this model in terms of the quality of the resulting images provide battery life for a maximum of 3 days. In turn, the X5500 maintains performance in optimal operating mode for a week. By the way, its battery capacity is 2900 mAh.

Samsung S5611

Another representative of the classic form factor, which has a 5 megapixel camera. It should be noted that when assessing the quality of photographs there is usually a degree of subjectivity. Especially when it comes to devices with similar characteristics. But in this case, neither users nor specialists have any doubts. The device is an undisputed leader in terms of the quality of the resulting photographs. Therefore, if you need a push-button phone with a good camera to take clear pictures without unnecessary noise, then it makes sense to purchase the S5611 model. The device also has autofocus and LED backlight, so you don’t have to worry about the camera’s function.

Conclusion

All advanced technologies for mobile devices are primarily mastered by smartphones with touch screens. In turn, the aging segment of traditional devices does without a whole range of new functions. Despite this, today you can find a feature phone with a good camera and a whole range of other useful options. The only problem is that updates in the segment do not occur so often and some devices remain in the manufacturers’ lines for several years. Companies are paying more attention to developing budget models, equipping them with 1.3-2 megapixel cameras. Of course, the quality of pictures in such phones by modern standards is not good at all.

Despite the abundance of smartphones with touch screens, push-button phones are not losing ground. They are still being made and bought. The demand for such devices is generated by older people, children, large organizations where a lot of internal mobile phones are needed, and simply lovers of good old cellular phones with buttons.

Detailed review:

An excellent candy bar with a keyboard and metal inserts. The glass on the front panel is of high quality - it does not scratch or wear out. The loud ringing can be heard even at a considerable distance. The screen has wide viewing angles and excellent quality for a phone of this class.

The appearance is original - a bright yellow slider with black screen frames. The device supports Internet access via 4G networks and Wi-Fi connection. A very powerful filling makes it look like a smartphone, but, nevertheless, it is a push-button phone with excellent technical characteristics.

The built-in memory is much larger than most push-button phones; if necessary, it can be expanded with a memory card. You can install mail and some messaging applications, but full correspondence is difficult from a push-button phone.

  • Answering a call by opening the lid is unstable.
