While the usual go-to device as a secondary handset would be a cheap Android smartphone, there are those who would still prefer feature phones. For the latter choice, one of the more recent feature phones available is the Nokia 225, which is the company’s “slimmest affordable Internet phone” yet.

The Nokia 225 is a feature phone with a 2.8-inch display. As an Internet phone, it comes preloaded with Nokia’s Xpress Browser that optimizes web speed and keeps data costs at a minimum by using data compression. Social needs are also satiated through the integrated Facebook and Twitter apps. Meanwhile, the Nokia 225 Dual SIM is essentially the same phone, with the ability to use two SIM cards as the notable difference.
