Nokia 106 (2023) technical sheet
The Nokia 106 (2023) suits anyone looking for a basic, lightweight phone with straightforward functions; its main trade-off is its low-capacity battery. At 79.4 g, it is among the lightest phones launched around the same time. The phone is built around calls and SMS, with Single Mini-SIM and Dual Mini-SIM options, FM radio, and an MP3 player.
Its TFT LCD display measures 1.8″ and has a density of 111 ppi, among the lowest of phones from its time. That is a limitation for anyone who prioritizes fine text detail. The Li-Ion battery has a capacity of 1,000 mAh, among the smallest of phones launched around the same time. At 14.5 mm thick, the phone is thicker than most of its contemporaries.
Splash resistance and a 3.5 mm audio jack round out a set of basic features, and storage is expandable. The Nokia 106 (2023) is a straightforward choice for people who value a very light phone with FM radio and MP3 playback. Its low-density display and small battery capacity are drawbacks for anyone looking for those features in a phone.
