Evidence-based overview
123 Shield technical sheet
The Nokia 123 Shield is a straightforward phone built around basic functions and a rugged body. Its plastic shell measures 132.7 × 57 × 15 mm and weighs 108 g, with green and purple listed as the available colours. The documented protection rating is IP65, and the build is marked as rugged. Its 2.4-inch TFT LCD uses a 4:3 aspect ratio and provides 240 × 320 pixels at 167 ppi, pointing to a simple display setup rather than a large viewing area.
For essential communication, the phone supports Dual SIM and Dual SIM Dual Standby on GSM 2G 900 and 1800. It also includes a 3.5 mm audio jack, FM radio, USB Type-C and stereo speakers. The operating system is S30+. The rear camera is documented with an LED flash, but no resolution is supplied, so its photography capabilities cannot be assessed beyond that feature.
The removable Li-Po battery has a 1,750 mAh capacity and a documented endurance figure of 27.9 h. RAM and maximum storage are both listed as 4 GB, with expandable storage supported. The Unisoc SC6531E is a single-core processor with a maximum clock of 0.208 GHz. This makes the Nokia 123 Shield a better fit for someone seeking a basic Dual SIM phone with a removable battery and rugged construction than for someone needing modern apps or network technologies.
