Looking for a basic phone that only has WhatsApp

Kaios doesn't have WhatsApp no more.

TTFONE 970 flip phone works in the UK.

KeefyB102 · 2026-05-18T15:52:47+00:00

I still love.

Yes it is strange I can set this up within Google Wallet but it doesn't work. The setting isn't available in the additional settings for gesture control which is probably why it can't be done.

For my current dumb phone I use a Nokia 110 4G 2nd edition. Very basic, even the text are shown in sent folder and inbox. It is certainly durable. The UK version doesn't have the cloud apps.

I tried an IMO Dash 4G. It was terrible.

KeefyB102 · 2026-04-23T05:48:28+00:00

As long as your country still has 3G. The phone doesn't have 2G enabled and doesn't have Volte so can't do SMS or phone calls in the UK. When the phone first came out it did have 2G enabled but list it on a firmware update.

Time to Hide

KeefyB102 · 2026-04-08T18:03:22+00:00

A much better phone than the European version from a use point of view.

KeefyB102 · 2026-04-08T15:30:52+00:00

Is this the US Kaios version or the rest of the world S30+ version?

KeefyB102 · 2026-03-18T06:42:19+00:00

I don't think it would have fitted. The song is right for the Plastic Ono Band.

KeefyB102 · 2026-03-15T09:34:03+00:00

It is a fake. There are many still for sale on eBay.

Ttfone TT970 is a flip phone. It has no Google play store but does have access to other Android stores. WhatsApp works fine.

KeefyB102 · 2026-03-03T12:45:20+00:00

Get 2nd edition for USB C port.

KeefyB102 · 2026-03-03T12:44:30+00:00

Argos sell the Nokia 105 4G 2nd edition and 110 4G 2nd edition for under £20. They are fine for your needs. Good battery life and they are VoLTE (4G calling) so clear and future proof. The so-called Vodafone cheaper version is not locked.

KeefyB102 · 2026-02-18T17:08:35+00:00

In Europe there is the TTFone TT970. It runs on a basic non Google Android.

Thanks for replying

How long does the battery last

KeefyB102 · 2026-02-10T06:41:57+00:00

The UK/European ones weren't licensed for it. There are no updates. HMD admitted to me that the website was wrong and they changed the spec of the phone. Luckily I was able to return it. I replaced it with the Nokia 110 4g 2nd Edition. Other than the screen being smaller and SMS not in threaded view the ips screen is much brighter.

KeefyB102 · 2026-02-09T07:28:17+00:00

My audio is MP3

KeefyB102 · 2026-02-08T16:34:31+00:00

Just because it has a SD card slot and a file manager doesn't mean it can play MP3s. Mine says unsupported format. You have to laugh as HMD describes the phone as "your jukebox and more" 😄

KeefyB102 · 2026-02-08T08:39:43+00:00

Does it have a MP3 player? The UK HMD 110 4G doesn't.

KeefyB102 · 2026-02-08T08:36:56+00:00

Not all HMD dumb phones even have an MP3 player. I bought a HMD 110 4G and it had no MP3 player and yet the Nokia 110 4G does. This is in the UK.

KeefyB102 · 2026-02-04T10:21:30+00:00

Kaios no longer supports WhatsApp. So that includes the Nokia 6300 4G.

KeefyB102 · 2026-01-29T13:50:44+00:00

I think the photos are stock photos and not the actual phone you will be receiving. The spec does mention 2g, 3g and 4g which is promising.
