Nokia 100 review

This can serve as a perfect backup phone. Today many people use high end phones which are prone to damages. Imagine your smartphones stop’s working and you need to get it repaired which will take few days and you simply cannot survive with a mobile phone.  This is the time when you will be looking for a simple phone with a very affordable price tag. What’s better than to buy a basic phone for just Rs. 1,300 with an amazing battery life and from a trusted brand, Nokia.
