Remember how long your first phone appeared? Almost certainly it was no more than 20 years ago. In those years, the phones were bulky and always push-button. Time passed, smartphones appeared, and traditional phones gradually began to fade into the background. And here we have come to the conclusion that in the last couple of years smartphones have been an order of magnitude bypassing push-button "old men" both in sales and in the number of newly developed devices. The reasons for this are many. Smartphones are faster, they have more features, more applications. In the end, it is much more pleasant and easier to consume content from them, and this is exactly why most people use a telephone.
But there are people who need only a simple reliable dialer that will live a couple of days. That's just to find new devices of this class is extremely difficult. We recommend only proven devices from reliable manufacturers. As usual, they are all collected in our ranking.
The best new low-cost push-button phones: a budget of up to 1,500 rubles.
3 BQ BQ-2442 One L +
A country: Spain
Average price: 790 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5
The Spanish company BQ has been trading in the Russian market since 2014. Her creation fell into our top due to the budget cost. The simplest working "pipe" without frills. There is support for two SIM-cards, a plastic case in bright colors, a color display. The buttons are small, so the model is not suitable for older people with poor eyesight and hand tremor.
But there is FM-radio, Bluetooth and 64 MB of internal memory. The novelty has recently appeared on sale, so there are no detailed reviews on the BQ-2442 One L + yet. Judging by the price, this mobile phone will not be able to boast of increased durability, but it will please the user to perform the declared functions without problems.
2 Nokia 105 Dual sim (2017)
A country: Finland
Average price: 1390 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7
A simple compact model, released in 2017, but still not lost its relevance. In this button phone with a length of 11 centimeters, a capacious 800 mAh battery is hidden. Her resource will last a week with frequent calls. However, the "dialer" lacks and cons. In reviews, the owners are distressed about the most simple menu and the lack of basic adjustments: screen brightness and others. Also, “Nokia” behaved to the maximum mercenary, writing paid games on a mobile phone.
But for those who are looking for a work phone especially for calls (in the army, for example), the Nokia 105 fits perfectly. The model cannot boast with a large screen. Among its advantages is only dvuhsimochnost, heroic autonomy and a pleasant price tag.
1 Fly ff247
A country: Great Britain
Average price: 990 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
Fly focuses on design, creates catchy, non-trivial solutions. This model has an excellent speaker and robust case. The model is quite suitable for grandparents. The font is small, but quite readable. The cell phone is lightweight, comfortable, lies well in the hand and is easy to manage. There is a nuance with the sound quality of the speaker - too many high frequencies. But the main drawback of the model is the lack of built-in memory, which is treated by connecting a flash card.
But there is a flashlight, support for FM-radio and two years warranty. You can set individual ringtones on the call, SMS, contacts.The phone book is designed for 300 numbers. A nice bonus - you can turn off the Internet in the phone itself and set up a blacklist. And here there is a voice recorder and auto-recording conversations.

4 BQ Mobile BQ-3201 Option
A country: Spain
Average price: 1782 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5
Stylish "brick" with a large screen, Bluetooth and TV tuner. The model is quite suitable for tourist conditions: the network pulls well, and the built-in TV tuner will not let you get bored on the train and in the country. Noteworthy is the keyboard layout - it is designed and so convenient that it allows you to quickly type messages.
In addition to the stylish design, there is a significant advantage here - a long-lasting 1750 mAh battery. Built-in memory 30 MB. The cell phone also accepts flash drives up to 16 GB. In reviews, users complain about problems with screen self-locking - this is the main minus of the BQ-3201 Option.
3 SENSEIT P210
A country: Russia (produced in China)
Average price: 2988 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6
Protected cell monoblock with pleasant features. The mobile phone boasts a loud speaker, a fairly high-quality screen, good communication quality and convenient connection to a computer. Due to the tight shockproof case with the function of waterproofing and film on the screen, the recorder works terribly - it does not recognize sounds. The same problem with the speakerphone. With moderate use of the phone, the battery lasts a long time - in a review, a user who rarely speaks on a mobile phone notes that only a quarter of the charge level “went away” in a week.
This model is the best solution for those who want to buy a phone for children. Durable, reliable, inexpensive and exclusively for calls. Bonus - a bright flashlight.
2 Prestigio Muze F1
A country: Cyprus
Average price: 2310 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7
The novelty has an excellent large and wide screen. The buttons are also large and bulging - difficult to miss. The design is brutal and maximally masculine - black color, even laconic lines, bolted screw cap.
"Chips" of this model - support for FM-radio without connecting a headset and water protection of an undefined standard. And here it is conveniently implemented to search for contacts in the notebook. Muze F1 - one of the best push-button phones from its price range. But without flaws, it was not. There is no T9, a weak vibration signal, not the most convenient interface and a nominal camera of 0.3 MP. But the battery is large - 1400 mAh lithium-ion.
1 Xiaomi qin1s
A country: China
Average price: 2760 rub.
Rating (2019): 5.0
Xiaomi company decided to add push-button telephones to the collection of their creations. Already in November, a new product will appear in Russia, which is intended to be a replacement for the good old Nokia. There is a 2.8-inch IPS screen, support for LTE networks (read: 4G), a keyboard with large buttons and a joystick; A powerful dual-core processor for a mobile phone, 256 MB of RAM and 512 MB of permanent memory. Memory cards are supported. And for sweet: a cell phone running the operating system Mocor 5 OS based on Android. The phone has an infrared port to control home appliances - yes, you can use it as a remote control for the TV and in case of loss just call it =).
The manufacturer itself focuses on the built-in voice assistant, which can answer basic questions and translate speech into 15 languages in real time. This is all fine, but the assistant does not know Russian, at least for now. And there's Wi-Fi here.
The best new push-button phones: a budget of 3000 rubles.
3 Philips Xenium E331
A country: Netherlands
Average price: 3840 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5
The novelty from one of the most favorite manufacturers was a success, but it turned out to be imperfect. The main advantages of the model lie in its ergonomics, the ability to listen to the radio without external antennas and headsets, in a convenient charging base and large font. Externally, the model seems to be an ideal "grandmother", but all the numerous accessories for the elderly are crossed out by a significant flaw - holding the reset button ("red button") for more than one second turns off the phone.Granny, after talking with her beloved grandson, hangs up and accidentally turns off the phone, does not notice this and then lives without connection, until the arrival of this very grandson.
But there is an independent flashlight, which can be turned on by the slider even when the cell phone is off. The speaker is excellent, as is the microphone for communication. The reviews on this model are contradictory: the Xenium E331 mobile phone is not advised for grandparents, but it is quite suitable for itself as a “dialer”.
2 Nokia 8110 4G
A country: Finland
Average price: 5990 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7
On board the Nokia's dudes, a promising KairOS operating system. Under it, applications of popular messengers are already being written, and other programs are being developed. The phone perfectly connects to Google services, synchronizes without problems and transfers contacts.
There is a powerful battery (enough for a couple of days), 512 MB of RAM, an MP3 player and a radio. There are LTE, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS. The phone looks cool and unusual - you can “click through” by clicking the slider. But the main drawback of the phone is a raw firmware. The operating system is new, and there are many bugs, errors and flaws. Everything is corrected, refined and polished with updates, but still far from the ideal, users say in a review.
1 Nokia 3310 Dual SIM
A country: Finland
Average price: 3490 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
This is the expected remake of the popular non-killing "Nokia 3310", which users are so bored of. The main disadvantages of the model: the high price and the fact that this is not the old Nokia. There is a durable plastic case in nice colors. The display is bright, clear, with a contrasting image and a strict color scheme to match the design. The sound is loud and distinct. Music plays very tasty. The speaker and microphone also cope with their duties - you hear, they hear you. The interface is simple and intuitive. The legendary "Snake" in place.
Bonus from the manufacturer - a full T9 with the recording of words. There is also a flashlight with a warm lamp glow. The battery keeps 5-7 days in active mode. This is the best version of a cell phone for those who do not mind giving a half-button price for a good smartphone.
