Notably, the Nokia 106 (2018) is also on sale on Flipkart for Rs. 1,309 and on Amazon India as well for Rs. 1,479. Both the prices are much higher than the one announced by HMD Global. To recall, the feature phone was launched globally in November, and featured RUB 1,590 (roughly Rs. 1,600) price tag in Russia.

Flipkart is offering a 10 percent instant discount to Axis Bank Buzz credit card users, and Amazon is offering 5 percent instant discount on HDFC credit EMI transactions and 10 percent instant discount on HDFC debit EMI transactions.

It comes with a tough polycarbonate build that has "inherent colouring" that makes the colours run through the material. Also, there is a contoured design that makes the new Nokia 106 much more ergonomic than its predecessor. The latest Nokia phone is also touted to deliver up to 21 days of standby time or 15 hours of talk time on a single charge. As seen in the image above, it sports an island keymat as well.
