GoSolo Verdict

The HMD 106 is a bare-bones GSM feature phone for calls, texts, FM radio, and MP3s—a relic device in 2026, but at 10 EUR it exists purely as a throwaway emergency backup or for markets where connectivity is all that matters. Do not buy this expecting anything beyond 20-year-old phone basics.

Strengths · 4

Removable battery means you can swap a dead pack without tossing the phone
Genuinely cheap at 10 EUR, so the financial loss if it breaks is negligible
Dual SIM support for juggling two networks or numbers
FM radio and MP3 player for audio on the go without internet dependency

Trade-offs · 3

4MB of internal storage is absurdly tight—the microSDHC slot barely helps if the OS itself claims most of that space
1000 mAh battery will need daily charging for moderate use, and charge time over microUSB will be slow
No data connectivity at all: no WiFi, no 3G, no 4G, no Bluetooth, no GPS. You are locked to 2G GSM voice and SMS only
