With a conventional candybar form measuring 107.2 x 45.1 x 15.3 mm and weighing a pocket-friendly 81.9g, the Nokia 1280 won’t get any more basic than a dual band GSM (900/1800) radio on the 2G network as people who use phones like this rarely ever travel overseas to require international roaming.
It has dual band versions for US and European markets. This is also great for kids getting their first taste of mobile phones and their profiles fit as having no need for local data connectivity as the 1280 doesn’t have any.
With colors in black, blue, gray and orchid, kids may not get fund with its somber colors but adults will.
Its rudimentary display also couldn’t be more basic with a 1.36-inch monochromatic LCD screen with 96 x 68 pixel resolution just enough for the user to navigate through its basic functionalities. There’s no imaging to bother about. Multimedia function doesn’t exists except for a basic monaural FM radio that you can listen to over its speakerphones or a 3.5mm audio port.
Phone memory is all about the phonebook capacity for 500 contact entries with a call record capacity for 20 dialed, 20 received and 20 missed calls at the most. Its BL-5CB li-ion battery rated at 800 mAh can deliver up to 8.5 hours of talk time and 528 hours of standby time when fully charged.
