2016 brought many new products to lovers of mobile digital technology. Advertisements on the Internet are full of posts about new developments in the field of electronics, the creation of terribly fast processors and powerful gaming video cards that have appeared in one or another flagship Premium device. And almost always, behind such new products of a “universal” scale with the breakthrough technologies introduced during their creation, we do not notice other devices that are more familiar and accessible to us.

Nowadays, almost everyone has a mobile phone; this device is widely available. And with the modern abundance of models and manufacturers, it is becoming more and more difficult for people to differ from each other. You can find a phone for almost any wallet with any imaginable and inconceivable characteristics. Some people like touchscreen devices - and some like push-button devices, some with large screens - and some with small ones. Today we will talk about new push-button phones 2016 with a large screen.

Tenth place is occupied by the Explay TV280 model. A distinctive feature of the phone is the presence of a TV tuner. Among the advantages, users highlight the presence of 2 SIM cards with a separate call button for calls from each of them, sufficient battery capacity, a loud ringer, large buttons on the device and a large screen. The disadvantages are the lack of Internet, lack of Java support, the inability to leave notes in the calendar and a very small clock face on the screen. The cost of this device starts from 1690 rubles.

The next model in the ranking is the Chinese-made Keneksi X5. The phone has 2 SIM cards. Among the advantages, users highlighted a good speaker when receiving calls, a large screen, a capacitive battery, and Internet access. The obvious disadvantages of the phone are the absence of the “T-9” mode when writing texts, a poor camera, small font, a small number of memory cells for entering contacts, poor screen quality, as well as another negative feature that caused particular dissatisfaction among users - the background that interferes with reading SMS devices. The price of the device is from 1690 rubles.

In 8th place is the Makvi P10 model. Among the advantages of the model, users note the presence of 2 SIM cards with separate buttons for calling, a slot for a memory card, a loud speaker and a capacitive battery, the ability to send a pre-prepared SMS message when hanging up a call, the ability to listen to the radio without headphones, and the presence of downloadable firmware on the manufacturer’s website. Users identified the disadvantages as small memory for contacts, a contact name of no more than ten characters, lack of speakerphone and periodic slowdowns. The cost of the phone is from 1690 rubles.

Nokia 230 and 230 DualSIM

In the 7th and 6th places are Nokia brand phones models 230 and 230 Dual SIM. The difference is the presence of slots for one and two SIM cards in phones, respectively. The attitude of users towards these models is twofold - some admire the design of this model and are nostalgic for the times of “handset phones”, while others place modern demands on the phone and are completely disappointed in the manufacturer. The bottom line of good things is that people notice a decent earpiece, sound quality for incoming calls, excellent build quality of the device, solid appearance, the presence of a large screen and buttons, no slowdowns or software glitches. Among the minuses are the inconvenient functionality of dialing SMS, a poor address book, unnecessary pre-installed applications, and the “End Call” button overloaded with functions. The price of the devices for the version with one SIM is 3890 rubles, with two - 3730 rubles.

In 5th place is the LEXARD A4 Big phone. Among the advantages of this model, users point to the presence of 2 SIM cards, a radio receiver, note the large size of the screen and keyboard, and good battery capacity. Users considered the most significant disadvantages of this model to be the small amount of internal memory and the lack of 2G and 3G communication channels for accessing the Internet. The price of this device is 1690 rubles.

4th place in the rating of push-button phones in 2016 is taken by Dexp Larus Z6. This model combines control buttons at the bottom of the panel and a touch screen. There are very few reviews on this model, and those that exist characterize the device as follows. One of the clearly visible advantages is the combination of touch and button controls, although for some this may be a disadvantage. The phone has a slot for 2 SIM cards, a good resolution TFT screen, a fairly capacious battery and an MP3 player. The disadvantages are a very poor camera and a laggy sensor. The price of the phone is from 1599 rubles.

In honorable 3rd place is the Fly TS 112 phone model. The advantages of this device include as many as 3 slots for SIM cards. Of course, such a phone will appeal to all those who like to use different tariffs from different operators, because now you can simultaneously use the benefits of three operators or tariffs. Users highlight such qualities of the phone as a large screen, clear sound from the speakers and a capacitive battery. The only obvious disadvantage is the small amount of internal memory (this can be solved by installing a FLASH card). The cost of the device is 1480 rubles.

The following phones qualify for the final of our rating: Fly FF281 and Micromax X806. Both models, according to most users, are the best in their class at a fairly low price. Fly FF281 features support for MP3 and video formats, connects to a GPRS connection, can work with a memory card with a capacity of up to 16 gigabytes, and in standby mode retains a charge of up to 250 hours without recharging. Its cost is 1450 rubles.

And the winner of the competition, Micromax X806, is a phone with two SIM cards, priced from 1840 rubles, has an almost 3-inch screen, supports MP3, vibration alert, connects to a computer via USB, has a slot for a memory card and Bluetooth, has a display in 65 thousand flowers. In terms of price-quality ratio, you will not find a better push-button mobile device.

These were the new push-button phones with a large screen in 2016, and choosing one of them is up to you, fortunately, making a reasonable choice by comparing descriptions, reviews and prices will not be difficult.

A modern push-button telephone with a powerful battery is an excellent gadget for people whose main requirement for a mobile device is autonomy.

Moreover, not every user needs a powerful processor for gaming.

Sometimes it is much more important to go without charging for a whole week or even a month, and not be afraid of dropping a mobile gadget with the screen down, if we are talking about shockproof models.

VIAAN V11

The Viaan V11 model, released in 2017, can be called a real power bank. With a battery capacity of 4000 mAh, you can use it by connecting another device (smartphone, smart watch or mp3 player) to it for charging. If you use it like a regular phone, V11 can work up to 3-4 weeks without being connected to the mains.

Among the features of the phone The following characteristics can be distinguished:

  • built-in memory of 32 MB and the ability to install a microSD card of up to 32 GB, which will be more than enough to use the phone as an mp3 player;
  • camera with a resolution of 0.1 megapixels. – a practically useless device that can only be useful for taking images of contacts;
  • USB port for charging or connecting to a PC;
  • Bluetooth wireless connection for transmitting or receiving data.

At the top of the phone there is a powerful LED lamp, thanks to which the model can be used as a pocket flashlight. And the only negative is the fragile and thick (2.9 cm) body of the gadget, although for the amount of 1,300 rubles. nothing more can be expected.

TeXet TM-D228

Original design of the TeXet model, based on the contrast of black and red, makes this inexpensive and not very functional gadget attractive in appearance. Although its main advantage can be called a 3000 mAh battery, thanks to which you can use the TM-D228 for 20–25 days without recharging. Other advantages include:

  • Well-thought-out button layout makes the keyboard more convenient and easier to use;
  • laser processing of the back cover, due to which it practically does not slip in the hand;
  • bright 2.4-inch TFT display with a resolution of 240x320 - enough to view texts, messages, photos and videos on it;
  • camera with a resolution of 0.3 megapixels. – practically does not allow you to take normal photographs, but allows you to shoot small videos in VGA format;
  • good speakers that provide good volume of melodies and ringtones.

The gadget is designed for 2 SIM cards and allows you to combine for user convenience. To connect to other mobile devices, the phone is equipped with a Bluetooth module.

Ergo Talk F241

The Ergo Talk F241 model has a good design and a minimum thickness for such phones - only 12.5 mm. Two SIM cards make it possible to use tariffs from different operators, and a high-quality screen with a resolution of 240x320 pixels does a good job of displaying texts, photos and videos - even in sunlight. And the camera allows you to take photos with a resolution of 1.3 megapixels.

The device's powerful battery will last for several weeks of continuous operation in standby mode and occasional conversations.

Other advantages of purchasing such a device include:

  • a 2.8-inch diagonal screen with a resolution of 240x320, on which you can view texts, photos, and even videos - although the phone does not come with either a main or front camera;
  • 32 MB of RAM – minimum for installing several java applications;
  • the ability to install up to 64 GB in size, which can accommodate thousands of audio files.

The model has the ability to play multimedia files and has a built-in radio. And its low price allows you to purchase the phone as an additional communication device.

BQ 2425 Charger

The features of the BQ 2425 Charger mobile phone include a 2.4-inch diagonal color display with a resolution of 240x320, which is good for a gadget of this class, and a capacious 3000 mAh battery. The model supports 2 SIM cards and 32 megabytes of memory (expandable up to 64 GB using). And in order to use it not only for calls, but also for entertainment, the gadget is equipped with a player, radio and java support for games and Internet use.

Another advantage is the small size(including 16 mm thickness) and weight only 104 grams. You can use it not only for calls, but also for sending SMS or MMS messages, making to-do lists and storing information - for example, photos (although the phone does not have a built-in camera).

Micromax X249+

Micromax X249+ phone allows you to use it for the following purposes:

Another serious advantage of using such a gadget is 2000 mAh battery. And, although this parameter is minimal among push-button phones with large batteries, it is more than enough for 2-3 weeks of device operation without recharging. Or 2–3 days if you run videos, audio or java games on the X249+.

Fly FF245

The FF245 phone cannot be compared with modern smartphones in any of the main parameters. Neither a camera with a resolution of 0.3 megapixels, nor 32 MB of RAM, nor the expansion of a 2.4-inch screen. However, this model has the following parameters: which make it to some extent better than some touch gadgets:

  • 32 GB of memory, addable via microSD card;
  • the presence of a 3700 mAh battery, providing autonomy up to 740 hours in standby mode and up to 90 hours when listening to music;
  • cost 2000 rubles.

A phone is worth purchasing for a person who needs to be constantly in touch. Including those who already have a productive smartphone for games and work. After all, in the absence of the ability to charge the phone, not a single touchscreen model can compare in terms of autonomy with the FF245.

VKWord Stone V3

The VKWord brand, which is not the most famous in the world of smartphones (its touch models were released in 2015, but were not widely used even thanks to durable protective glass), also produces fairly decent push-button phones. For example, such as Stone V3 - a device with an impressive 5200 mAh battery. Its features include:

  • protection against moisture and dust according to IP67 standard;
  • 1.2 megapixel camera – not meeting the requirements of modern users, but not bad for a push-button telephone;
  • equipped with an LED flashlight, activated by pressing the central button on the keyboard;
  • very loud speakers, thanks to which both ringtones and the alarm can be heard perfectly.

Among the disadvantages are the large thickness of 23 mm and RAM of only 64 MB. However, at a price of 2.3 thousand rubles. and the presence of such a huge number of advantages, such disadvantages can be neglected. Moreover, the memory is expandable up to 8 GB using a microSD card.

Sigma Mobile X-Treme

The Sigma Mobile X-Treme mobile phone belongs to the category of models that have the main advantages for hikers and people working in difficult conditions (for example, rescuers, workers in the metallurgical and mining industries):

  • 3000 mAh, providing autonomy for several days and even weeks;
  • almost completely “indestructible” - it is quite difficult to damage the device, since it is practically not afraid of water (including immersion to a depth of 3 m), or dust, or falling from a great height;
  • powerful LED flashlight, operating in normal and flashing mode.

Among the not very impressive, but still quite good functions for a phone priced at 3,100 rubles, it is worth noting a screen with a resolution of 240x320 pixels and a 1.2 megapixel camera. The kit includes a Bluetooth module, a built-in player, and a radio.

Land Rover X6000

It is not for nothing that the name of the Land Rover phone coincides with the brand of the SUV - the reliability of these gadgets can indeed be compared with the famous British off-road vehicles. The protective properties of this model (tempered durable glass, rubber and plastic linings on the body, and plugs) allow it to be submerged under water, dropped from a height, or work in dusty conditions.

The size of the device is not too large - however, its screen has a diagonal of 2.4 inches and a resolution of 240x320 pixels. This allows you to watch videos on your phone, read texts, and even access the Internet. And the camera received a decent resolution for a push-button phone - 3 megapixels.

The main feature of the model is a battery with a capacity of 6000 mAh– a function that allows you to work for 15–20 days in standby mode or a whole day of calls. Another impressive feature is the powerful LED flashlight, which is several times stronger than other phones.

Nomi i242 X-Treme

The Nomi i242 X-treme phone is a convenient and protected gadget from most external influences, designed for use in extreme conditions. It is quite suitable for a hike, a production workshop or a mine. Moreover, the device’s 2500 mAh battery is enough for several days of continuous operation in standby mode, and the device has a small camera with a resolution of 0.3 megapixels. Suitable for taking not very high-quality, but still clear pictures.

The advantages of purchasing a device include the ability to expand its memory up to 32 GB using a microSD card, and several color options for the case, allowing you to choose the right option for any user. And another advantage that distinguishes the phone from many models in the rating is its resolution of 360x400 pixels.

Land Rover F8

The Land Rover F8 Mega Power phone differs from most push-button models by having one of the best battery characteristics - 8800 mAh. With this part, the gadget works for up to 2 months in standby mode, several days in a row with constant use for talking, or a whole week of playing video or music. And the design features provide the phone with protection according to the IP67 standard - submersion under water and complete dust resistance.

The model is capable of falling from a height of 2 meters, can record noise-blocking audio and provide volume levels up to 100 dB. And for the convenience of the user, a powerful flashlight is built into the phone, illuminating the area for several meters around.

TeXet TM-513R

The phone, called TM-513R from the recently famous Chinese brand TeXet, is well protected from dust and water, and can work for several days in a row with the help of a 2570 mAh battery.

The model’s interface is Russian, and among the options you can find an mp3 player and a camera with a resolution of 2 megapixels. and a 1.7-inch screen with a resolution of 176x220 pixels. These parameters will not impress the owner of a modern smartphone - however, taking into account the battery capacity and affordable price (no more than 4 thousand), they can be considered quite normal.

The model does not have its own operating system, however, it allows you to watch videos, listen to music and even run primitive java games, for which the phone has 16 MB of memory. And the appearance of the phone is stylish enough to look good in the hands of a male or female user who needs an almost “indestructible” and autonomous gadget.

Philips E181

The Philips brand has several phones with high-capacity batteries in its lineup, including the E181. Among the device's capabilities:

  • work for 50 hours with active use and more than a month in active mode - due to a 3100 mAh battery;
  • shooting with a 0.3 megapixel camera;
  • listening to music and watching videos on the 2.4-inch display;
  • charging other phones and mobile devices from the E181 battery.

Most of the other characteristics are not impressive - built-in radio, mp3 player, Russian-language interface and small thickness. Although the cost of the phone is not so small - almost 4,000 rubles. The reason a non-shockproof and non-waterproof device falls into this price range is most likely due to the brand guaranteeing high build quality.

Sonim Discovery A12

The Discovery A12 model from the Sonim brand received not only a shockproof, but also a very original-looking body and a 2-inch display, the resolution of which is sufficient for viewing text, photos and videos. But the main advantages of the model are:

  • 3800 mAh battery (several weeks of operation in active mode);
  • two cameras (2 and 0.3 megapixels);
  • RAM, quite consistent with older smartphones - 128 MB of RAM and 2 GB of ROM;
  • support for various media file formats.

You can charge other devices using your phone. Large buttons allow even older people to use it. And the gadget does not cost that much for its capabilities - in the range of 4–4.5 thousand rubles.

TeXet TM-515R

The TM-515R model differs from another TeXet push-button phone in having a smaller battery capacity (2200 instead of 2570 mAh), lower camera resolution (0.3 megapixels instead of 2) and a higher price. But the design of the device is more original, and the screen is 0.4 inches larger. The main advantage is that it comes with a built-in radio - the TM-515R allows you to use it where there are no towers of any cellular operator.

The model is protected from water and dust, and is not afraid of falls and temperature changes. And to expand the memory to 32 MB, you can use a microSD card up to 8 GB.

Land Rover WE-S8

Another Land Rover received one of the most durable housings among models with increased protection. The phone's battery parameters are the best in the rating - but the device has a good camera (3.2 megapixels), 128 MB of RAM and 256 MB of ROM. Moreover, the memory can be expanded up to 8 GB using a microSD card, and the number of SIM cards reaches three (the third is CDMA only).

The list of phone options includes a calendar, a flashlight and java games. The display resolution is 320x480, instead of the standard 240x320 pixels. And the cost, not exceeding 5,000 rubles, fully corresponds to the parameters of the model.

Philips E570

The advantages of the Philips E570 model include:

  • a powerful 3160 mAh battery, providing dozens of hours of operation without recharging;
  • 2.8-inch display with a resolution of 240x320 pixels;
  • 2 megapixel camera

Among the minuses– a relatively high price for a phone that is not protected from water and dust. As with other Philips models, the cost increases due to the brand and assembly.

BlackBerry Passport

The BlackBerry Passport phone is already a real smartphone - although it comes with a real physical keyboard. The advantages of the gadget include the presence of its own BlackBerry Os operating system and impressive performance obtained from 3 GB of RAM. The original design of the smartphone also attracts attention.


Despite the actual hegemony of touchscreen smartphones, push-button phones are still in demand among a wide range of people. For the most part, buyers appreciate their low price, long battery life and ease of operation (for example, in the cold). Yes, such devices do not have the best cameras or advanced capabilities, but they can offer a number of advantages: reliability, compactness, high autonomy and a long model life cycle. Push-button phones may have turned into niche devices, but they have not lost their buyer at all - many business people or simply unpretentious users choose them.

But, despite the reduction in the segment of push-button phones, it is extremely easy to get confused in the model range of this or that company. This rating will allow you to figure out which devices are the best in their class based on a set of parameters.

The best push-button phones with a classic case: price – quality

These are good phones with a durable body and useful features. We have collected in this category mobile phones that keep a stable connection and are characterized by increased reliability.

3 Micromax X412

Bluetooth and high-capacity battery
Country: India
Average price: 390 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5

A good mobile phone with a convenient compact size. There are many useful functions here, such as transferring contacts via USB, a flashlight, a vibration alert, a calendar, a stopwatch, and even the ability to read books. The cell phone keeps excellent communication and today is one of the best push-button phones with a price of up to 1000 rubles.

The model accommodates two SIM cards. You can listen to music through an audio player and even make backups. The main disadvantages that experienced owners write in reviews are the speaker located on the back cover and therefore producing a dull sound, and the insufficiently bright screen with small viewing angles. There is no camera here, but there is a Bluetooth module. A nice feature is a promising 800 mAh battery, which lasts for seven days with average use of the phone.

2 Alcatel 1066D

High quality build. Thoughtful interface
Country: France
Average price: 915 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6

Excellently assembled push-button monoblock. The phone boasts a durable body made of textured, pleasant-to-touch plastic, convenient button placement and travel, and a strict, laconic design. Even the font and colors of the menu are chosen with taste. The intensity of the screen backlight can be adjusted within a fairly wide range: it is comfortable to read from the display both in bright sun and in the dark.

The settings have everything you need: auto-recording of conversations (to a memory card), blacklist, calculator, organizer, converter, alarm clock, voice recorder and even radio. The interlocutor can be heard well, and you can also be heard perfectly during a telephone conversation. This is one of the best mobile phones in the budget segment. In the reviews, users found only minor shortcomings: a small battery (lasts for two to three days with rare conversations), lack of a vibration signal and slow Internet (enough to send MMS and view the weather forecast, news and public transport schedules).

1 Nokia 3310 Dual Sim (2017)

Best build quality and materials
Country: China
Average price: 3390 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

The original Nokia 3310, introduced to the world in 2000, has become a true legend. Probably everyone has heard about its strength and “survivability”. The 2017 model shares the same name, but does it live up to the name? Oh yeah! Judging by independent tests, the phone has the same properties: it can survive falls, shocks and other abuses without any problems. An extremely necessary feature for a utilitarian “dialer”.

They tried to bring the appearance of the rating leader as close as possible to the old model, but the design looks fresh. Fans of brightness will appreciate the presence of five body color options. I would like to highlight a good camera - 2 megapixels without autofocus take mediocre photos, but competitors cannot offer even that. A regular cell phone without unnecessary bells and whistles awaits us inside. The operating system is simple, but made in a single minimalist style - it looks nice. And yes, the famous “snake” is here. The 1200 mAh battery lasts for about 5-7 days of use.

The best push-button flip phones

In the past decade, flip phones were fashion devices in themselves, and thanks to the efforts of the then market-leading Motorola and the PR campaign for the Razr (and partly Tundra) line, sales of devices of this form factor increased significantly. Over time, the demand for such solutions has faded, but many still value them for their compactness and ease of use - many flip phones have a convenient additional screen that displays the time, date and name/number of the caller. But models with the above-mentioned option are now extremely difficult to find on shelves.

3 Fly F+ Ezzy Trendy1

Best price
Country: UK
Average price: 1610 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5

A simple minimalist cot, which the manufacturer produces in red, white and gray colors. The screen is standard for a compact mobile phone - 2.4 inches diagonal, resolution 320x240. The camera is also quite ordinary - it has a basic 0.3 megapixel. There is Bluetooth, MP3 player and radio.

The 800 mAh battery fully satisfies the battery life – they write in the reviews. But the speakers are not very loud – both conversational and main. Therefore, this push-button telephone is not suitable for elderly people with poor hearing. The device is light and pleasant to the touch. Experienced owners have been using it for more than five years - and to date there have not been a single battery replacement and no serious bugs. This is one of the best inexpensive push-button devices with large buttons and simple controls.

Rating (2019): 4.7

A stylish folding bed that is sold in different colors. The manufacturer paid enough attention to the design, so this push-button phone looks stylish and fresh even in 2020. The 2.8-inch main screen supports large fonts. On the additional screen with a slightly smaller diagonal - 1.77 inches - you can always see the time.

A large 1200 mAh battery, taking into account the fact that there are two screens in the mobile phone, lasts quite a long time - three to four days with moderately active use of the device. There is a camera with a resolution of 0.3 megapixels, which is enough to capture the schedule at a bus stop, documents printed in large print, and the like. Among the nice features are radio and support for two SIM cards. There are no reviews for this push-button model yet, since it just went on sale.

1 Alcatel 3025X

The most popular
Country: France
Average price: 2700 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9

One of the most popular folding phones, which is not a shame to call the best in its category. Today, this is the best option for those who are looking for an inexpensive and stable mobile phone in a clamshell form factor. The battery is not the largest - with a capacity of 970 mAh, but reviews say that the battery life when working on 2G networks reaches up to a week.

The model is suitable for the elderly - it has large buttons, a simple menu, compact size and good battery life. There is 3G support, so if you want, you can check the weather or go to Facebook. The flip phone only supports one SIM card. The 2.8-inch diagonal screen has a resolution of 320x240. Useful functions: flashlight, organizer, speed dial, Bluetooth and memory card slot.

The best push-button phones with a powerful battery

These are mobile phones that are characterized by record battery life. An ideal option for older people who forget to charge the device on time, and an excellent device for travel purposes when there is no way to connect the phone to an outlet.

2 Digma LINX A230WT 2G

Largest battery (capacity 6000 mAh)
Country: China
Average price: 2990 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

A mobile phone with a brutal design and a record battery capacity for push-button models – 6000 mAh. The battery provides autonomy for up to a month and a half, and with active use you are unlikely to be able to discharge it in a week.

The phone also has a flashlight. Bright and with the best range of light compared to other competitors. The screen is quite large (2.31 inches diagonally) and also bright. Externally, the monoblock looks like an armor-piercing device; you can also find the declared water protection in the model description. In fact, there is no water protection here - even the connectors are not covered with plugs, and the plastic case cannot provide acceptable impact resistance. An unusual feature of a cell phone today is a walkie-talkie. But reviews note that the sound transmitted is very quiet, although the microphone and speakers work perfectly and in other conditions produce loud sound with a good margin.

Record battery life
A country: Netherlands (manufactured in China)
Average price: 4790 rub.
