If you considered the Nokia 230 and the Nokia 222 budget phones, then the Nokia 105 is even cheaper. There are a number of reasons for this as we can see from the Nokia 105 specs listed above. The phone is very basic, however it has a nice clean two tone design and with its large buttons, makes for a good phone for an older person.
