Rec a good basic phone
Hello,
I need a good basic phone. I would prefer a nokia.
Don't need internet so don't need a smart phone.
Also one that is quiet when you text LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! so no clicking buttons.
Also up to £50 ish.
Thanks in advance.

Calley

Nokia 100 if you don't need a camera on your phone. Can be had for £17 including £10 credit from Carphone Warehouse.
If you want a more features (like a music player, camera and memory card slot), the Nokia Asha 201 is £49.95 including £10 credit from Carphone Warehouse.

As above, I still think Nokia is best in the "simple, basic phone" category. The Asha 201 is a QWERTY keyboard if you prefer that, otherwise the C2-01 is usually under £50, has a half decent camera on it and a good battery life.0
