Hello,
[First time forum post, apologies for any mistakes]

I'm been trying to find a mobile phone with the following requirements:

  • At least 3G (so can work on current networks)
  • Physical buttons, (i.e. T9, not just a home button)
  • Features (torch; fm transmitter; camera; etc)

and preferably

  • Support for Java apps.

I would really prefer purchasing in a store, or online, but preferable not on a marketplace (i.e. not Amazon or eBay).
From my experience, no-one seems to have them for sale, but many people just have them lying around in a drawer, "just in case."

I did see this post: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/504531, and this is the sort of thing I am looking for, though if at all possible, I would like a Nokia branded phone.

Edit: I don't mind getting a used older/discontinued Nokia model.

Thank you.

Mobile

    Try Woolworth or Coles tobacco counter. They usually have several, and always at least a couple on special. Unfortunately I know this from standing at such counters. Cough.

    Didn’t Nokia re-release the 3310? Not sure what the specs are but could be worth looking into that?

    nokia 8810 4g OR nokia 2720 4g flip phone.

    maybe a konka brand.

    good luck.

    worse case you might need an old school nokia that runs symbian.
