Nokia Launches 150 2023 and 130 Music at $22

HMD Global is introducing an updated range of Nokia feature phones, unveiling two new models: the stylish 150 and the music-focused 130.

Nokia 150 (2023)

The Nokia 150 (2023) finds a balance between aesthetics and durability. Constructed from colored polycarbonate, the phone’s design prevents issues like paint chipping and surface scratching. It also carries an IP52 rating, providing protection against dust and light water splashes.

Enhancing the device’s visual appeal are the textured rear panel and metallic-feel function keys on the front. Beyond these design elements, the 150 offers the expected functionalities of a feature phone and remains similar to the Nokia 150 introduced three years ago.

On the front, there’s a 2.4-inch display with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels. Operating on the Nokia OS S30+, the phone features a 0.3MP camera for photos and supports MP3 music files, which can be stored on a microSD card (up to 32 GB). It also includes an FM radio receiver and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

A removable 1,450 mAh battery powers the phone, charged via micro USB (USB 1.1), and a compatible charger is included in the retail package. This battery delivers impressive performance, offering 20 hours of talk time or 30 hours of continuous music playback.

The Nokia 150 (2023) will come in Charcoal, Cyan, and Red colors, with a starting price of $33.

Nokia 130 Music

The Nokia 130 Music, also known as the Nokia 130 (2023), clearly showcases its purpose through its rear design.

It replaces the camera with a larger speaker. Like the 150 model, this version supports MP3 playback from a microSD card (up to 32GB) or through the FM radio. It also features a 3.5mm headphone jack and includes a pair of earphones in its retail packaging.

Maintaining the same 2.4-inch display, feature phone operating system, and 1,450 mAh battery, this model shares many features with its counterpart. It also continues to use a micro USB charger.

The Nokia 130 Music will be available in Dark Blue and Purple color options, priced at $22. There’s also a Light Gold variant available for $24.
