HMD Global's general market position for its Nokia handsets has, with only a few exceptions, focused squarely on the budget market. The Nokia 2.3 couldn't be much more budget-centric, and it shows off everything the Finnish company does so well in this space. There's not much in the way of a "standout" feature on the Nokia 2.3, but there is a focus on getting the basics right.
When you're buying a budget phone, compromise is the name of the game. The Nokia 2.3 doesn't do much to stand out from the pack with mediocre processor performance and slow charging, but it balances that against the presence of a larger battery than many phones in this price space and the promise of Android updates in a field where you're often lucky to see just one security update.
Essentially, it does little exciting, but also little that's markedly wrong for the asking price. It's always worth shopping around, but the Nokia 2.3 should certainly be in your comparison list when doing so.
You can also purchase the Nokia 2.3 on a handset repayment plan from TeleChoice.
