Can say I've not enjoyed my Samsung Galaxy S23 from the very start and now stuck with this hideous phone that controls pretty much my life. The fact that google is in a law suit with department of justice for anti-trust law and been fined 2.7 billion dollars plus department of justice now wants to split chrome and android and not forgetting google does what it dam pleases with your devices let alone with its continuous lying  It's no wonder why people are not trusting Samsung and google.  With this crapy AI gemini and copilot and others going around making people unhappy I'd like to see AI scrapped. 

 

This is what is making want a Nokia 3210, no continuous notification, no push you have to update, no privacy or data brokers collecting your data or personal privacy data breaching by rogue companies like google and microsoft.

 

I think my world will feel a whole lot less stressful and better.

 

So I say FY Samsung, google, microsoft and all other companies alike I'm done with your scammy smart phones they are only fit for the bin.

 

So o2 no I don't want the latest stupid Samsung S25 crap or IPhone BS it's basic phone for me. So o2 if you don't have any Nokia 3210's in stock I don't want to continue with another contract..

o2 dont have the original 3210 (they are now 26 years old), but you can buy the HMD 3210 updated for 2025 from https://www.hmd.com/en_gb/feature-phones or from Amazon and I cant see o2 stocking a niche phone anymore as most people want a smart phone..  (I dont think any UK Network sell it)


So my advice buy a HMD Featurephone direct from HMD or Amazon, and the move to a sim only contract.. 

 

 

Just to add Microsoft dont make smartphones anymore and havent for a while,. but another option is to look at a Linux based phone https://pine64.org/devices/pinephone/

 

Update I stand corrected o2 do sell it for £60 https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/nokia/3210

Is this for real or was it written by AI?

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.
