GIGA thinks:
If you really want to completely do without the mobile Internet, but want to take some of the additional options of a mobile phone with you, then the newly launched cult mobile phone Nokia 3310 is the ideal "deceleration machine". You can listen to MP3 music or radio on the go or take a snapshot. Otherwise there are actually only SMS and telephony. And the Nokia 3310 has been rigorously proven to forgive rough handling. The price is certainly sensational: you can spend that much on a smartphone for the case.

Ushining folding cell phone - revival for your pocket

Facts:
- Price: 22.89 euros at Amazon
- Talk time up to 240 minutes, standby time up to 7 days
- camera
- 1.8 inch display
- Colors: red and black
Particularities:
- Dual sim
- Bluetooth
- MP3 player
- radio
- MicroSD card slot
- Alarm clock
GIGA thinks:
This clamshell phone - available in red and black - clearly demonstrates that standard chips are getting cheaper and cheaper. As a dumbphone, of course, it only masters telephony and SMS, but can entertain you with music, take photos and hold out for a relatively long time. The folding technique makes it handy and protects the display at the same time. With these functions, it is ideal as a first cell phone, holiday cell phone or just to reduce cell phone stress.

Sliding mobile phone: Nokia C2-05 Slider-Hany with Internet - still…

Facts:
- Price: Around 58 euros at Amazon (in blue)
- Weight: 98.5 grams
- Talk time up to 4 hours, standby time up to 27.5 days
Particularities:
- MP3 player
- radio
- Internet with GPRS / Edge
GIGA thinks:
Not quite as cool as the sliding cell phone from Neo from “Matrix”, but still quite practical. Nokia C2-05 has a display with 65,000 colors, can be expanded with memory cards and has a camera - which is pitiful. It is extremely handy for that. Internet can do it too, but only faster in the GPRS / Edge standards will soon be eliminated anyway due to the 3G shutdown.

Absolute minimalism: Simvalley credit card cell phone

Particularities:
- Dimensions: 50 x 85 x 5.5 mm
- Weight: 31 grams
- radio
- Backlit display and buttons
- Bluetooth (for headphones)
- Micro USB charging
GIGA thinks:
The cell phone for purists: The Pico RX-482 credit card cell phone really does not support anything except SMS and telephony as well as a few basic functions. A radio is built in, but is likely to quickly drain the tiny battery. For this, this device can actually be kept in the wallet next to the credit cards. You can be reached, you can call someone and then your cell phone comes back in your shirt pocket.

- MP3 player
- Bluetooth - can also be used as a headset for another phone
GIGA thinks:
Smaller than a disposable lighter, as thick as a thumb, the mobile phone is simply plugged into the ear for making calls. It has a mini display and a keyboard in the front, and an ear plug in the back. Micro-SIM in and you can make calls and send / receive SMS. It doesn't get any smaller, nor easier.
