IDK about everyone else, but I view Nokia kinda odd. Roughly 8-10 years ago they were everywhere and were without a doubt one of the best phone manufacturers on the market. Fast forward to a couple of years ago and they reappeared out of seemingly nowhere. Ok, a bit of advice for Nokia phones. Really pay attention to the specs on each phone. I got one about a year ago (also as a Verizon prepaid) and it was a nightmare. Turns out it was due to only 1 GB of RAM. App's frequently crashed and closed on their own, plain and simple a slow & clunky phone. I wish I could remember what model it was, I just know it was a Nokia. It also only had 8 GB of internal memory whereas most phones, even at the time, had 16 GB of internal memory, so just not an impressive phone. The killer was it actually wasn't a cheap phone either. At nearly a hundred dollars you kinda expect to at least be getting a mid range quality phone.
Ok, setting that aside and focusing on the Nokia 2V Tella, I got this because I realized my last Nokia phone was junk because of poor specs, not because of Nokia themselves (although it was their choice to give a phone such poor specs) and after seeing decent specs on this phone I decided to give them another chance. I'm glad I did. Even if I still can't fully shake my experience with my last Nokia phone I still have to say that this phone is worth it...........provided you can get a good price on it. Here comes the "But......" mentioned in the heading of my review. Which is that this phone has a regular price of (approx) $90. Pretty high for a phone with only a (approx) 5 and a half inch screen, 16 GB internal memory and 2 GB of RAM. Remember I said my old phone was junk because of poor specs? Well while this improves on that enough to make a decent phone it also doesn't make for overly impressive specs either. Ultimately this is an okay phone, if again you can get it at a fair price. Checking the back and apparently it's a 2020 model, but at the price you should get 32 GB internal memory and closer to a 6 inch screen. Here's the good and redeeming bit of news in all of this, even if you can't get a good price elsewhere on this phone at least Best Buy has it clearance priced to almost half of the original price, which for this model seems to be everyone else's regular price too. So I was able to get this for under $50, with taxes and free shipping, making it a very worthwhile deal. If you need a new phone and are on a tight budget, get this while you got the chance. Oh, and a nod to Verizon service in general, great reception and service at an acceptable price.

I want to like this phone but so far its a little slow. I removed some apps[mostly games and a few others so far] I went back to best buy today and bought a 64gb micro sd card. With all the apps loaded on phone very little storage left, maybe it will help. Google assistant not very responsive. Will keep using it for now.
Hope sd card will help.

DOESNT hold a signal, hard to connect and stay on wifi. Takes forever to to look up anything. Most of the storage seems to be taken up by preloaded apps.. only had it for a couple days before it told me I was low on storage

I bought this phone because my moto 6 was 5 years old. The work great it faster than my old phone and the memory is good 16 gigabyte. I like that you can change the battery without a repair tech.
