[@oldgeezer5003]

I'm guessing that's a limitation Verizon puts on it. I know my TCL Flip 2 doesn't have VoWIFI or Hotspot out of the box when using the Tracfone (Verizon) SIM, but now that it is unlocked (when I put a Tello (T-Mobile) SIM in it) it does. I can't say for sure, but I'm guessing Nokia 2760 is the same. In support of that guess, there's now a Nokia 2780 which looks identical to the 2760, but it's not tied to Tracfone, and it does have VoWIFI and and Hotspot.

[@Zee123Hammer]

Trust Nokia to miss something essential like a hot spot in this day and age 🤷 could explain the price range but still quite baffling.

[@Mageman17]

Do you think that it might be a carrier "request" to take it out?

[@John_Smith_Dumfugg]

Damn shame.

[@user-360johnn]

I mean i paid $30 for $30 a line and the one with hotspot wouldve been $79 for $80 A LINE

[@mars-k1u]

Why do you need hotspot on a cell phone? I would think the phone is used only for calling, if you use a hotspot with another phone you are now using another device, makes no sense

[@TheKeithBBB]

Perhaps the lack of hotspot might be because it is a carrier specific phone, same as the missing MicroSD slot. I expect if a SIM free version comes out it may have these features and come with the usual bloatware. I presume the bloatware helps keep the cost down.

[@mattdebyl8806]

Yes, almost certainly this.

[@highpineapple]

Again, what are you going to do with extra storage on a flip phone? A micro SD card slot is pointless

[@TheKeithBBB]

@@highpineapple I use the microSD card to store my music as MP3 songs. Then the phone can be considered an MP3 player adding even more value to the phone. Having any photos stored on a microSD card makes it easier when you have to change your phone and keeps the internal memory free.

[@MsTheeloisa]

At this point...I don't know what Nokia is doing with its feature phone market. I bought the 2720 flip because it literally was the only detox option that allowed me to have whatsapp and type in english, italian and spanish. Japanese feature flip phones are SUPERIOR: a spring mechanism that is activated by a button so you can easily open the phone with one hand, a 8 megapixel camera, the keypad that turns into a touchpad when you browse, android instead of kaios, whatsapp web and a more snappy internet navigation system. The only thing is that japanese phones only come in english and japanese so you can't use predictive text in other languages...and that's why I chose this nokia crap instead of sharp aquos phones. If you are an american, british, irish, australian blah blah blah person consider a japanese flip phone and spare your money on these phones.

[@JoseBriones]

Japanese phones don't work in the US. I agree with you on the quality, but this is the reality as of now.

[@jitendradoc]

Hi Jose! Nokia is NOT listening at all. Feature phones are extremely popular in India and Nokia has released a couple of really nasty handsets here. No 6300, 8000, 2760. Nokia has the largest fanbase here and has been neglecting us for decades. One of the reason of its huge fail. It is again heading that way I would like to meet it's marketing team. What the hell they are thinking?

[@jitendradoc]

Can you Jose by the way contact anyone in Nokia team? I hate to see Nokia heading the same way to disaster. I am one of those 80s kid who started with Nokia 3310. My first smartphone was a N73. I wrote to Nokia time and again to iron out the bugs. After many update , the phone became slower. Same happened to my 5800 XpressMusic. Then to my beloved N900. I do not yet know how to revive that monster N900. Why the Nokia people are so adamant and totally deaf to loyal fans? Who gives them the idea to ignore the key markets?

[@morelove619]

And thanks for the review Jose!!

[@rmaxwell3294]

Excellent Review Jose, I heard that Verizon now owns Tracfone and is planning to move Tracfone users to the Verizon network over time, I have been watching most all your reviews and they are critical to me right now because I'm looking to purchase a new flip phone within the next 10 days, I tried going back to smart phones but they are just getting bigger and bigger very difficult to carry so I'm going back to flip, my final choices have come down to 2 devices the Nokia 2720v if I can get it on Verizon prepaid or the Alcatel go flip 4 if I can get it on Verizon prepaid also if not I will keep looking for another maybe AT&T since my Verizon signal strength is not so great on the galaxy A02s that I am testing out it's way to slippery, heavy, and a 6.5" screen will only make me end up using it as a tablet on WI-FI. Thank you for sharing this great video with us all, you are a great help to all...if you have any recommendations about my choices for flip phones please let me know. Thanks again.!!

[@homesteadmovies]

Great video! Could you answer these short questions that I have? 1. When do the new kaios updates come out? 2. Where can I send feedback or suggest new features for future kaios updates? Thank you!

[@HeDoesNotRow]

After horrible battery issues with 2720 after the last update and the fact that alarms are not reliable, it will be my last Nokia. Too bad.

[@purplefishmonkeybutt]

Great little phone, although I lost the function to talk through my earbuds and I can't figure out how to turn it back on. Any ideas?

[@uldericofugacci1614]

Go to settings and deactivate talkback on accessibility settings.

[@sherrysvesnik7711]

There is no way to do it in accessibility. You have to toggle back & forth the volume control all the way up & all the way down numerous times back & back & it shuts it off. So in case someone else asks, that is how.

[@lynngreen7978]

I was forced by Tracfone to upgrade to this model from the phone i was perfectly happy with, that did what I needed. Is there a way to make it show the airtime balance on the homescreen?

I wouldn't put more than one account, but the client is very usable for 1. It syncs, renders emails, and you are able to send them. It takes longer than a regular client on a smartphone, but if you NEED to send an email, you'll be able to without issues.

You mention that this phone unlocks in 60days? Exactly how does that get activated and the clock starts on the 60days. I bought this to use on AT&T for my elderly father.

[@JoseBriones]

You activate it on Tracfone. Then wait 60 days. Call them and ask for an unlock code. Then, unlock it and use on another carrier.

[@jitendradoc]

Hi Jose! Perhaps Nokia wants to shutdown it's business. It always makes a half hearted attempt. Always some key feature missing and always banking on Nostalgia. I remember my N73 as a complete package. I still have a defunct N95 which was a powerhouse. Now Nokia tries to sell overpriced reimagining of legendary phones with way less features. My old 6300 was a masterpiece. 6300 4G is definitely not that

[@kerem7546]

any promise of these Nokias soon having voice to text or ability to download signal?

[@JoseBriones]

Nope

[@rathansherigar4527]

Nokia has not launched it in India yet. Google says 28th April 2022 it will be. Maybe! Or maybe waiting for 6G so they can launch 4G!

[@rathansherigar4527]

Nokia phones come at premium price. Not competitive price. Hence they are apprehensive about launching their phones. Hence they have been rotten eggs before and will be always. They cannot decide the price of their phones and their competitors launch competition and they are ousted! Their marketing segment is inefficient.

[@ablindguy]

I have a very stupid question. Are things like Google Ray or an alternative availible on this phone? Someware it's something for a typical smartphone and not for phones like this, but it's a very popular feature and I can also understand that the developers of the os don't want to stay behind.

So Jose - I'm on Verizon and want to add a flip. I was looking at the 2720V - then I see this. From what I understand, I can activate it on tracfone and after a bit it will unlock and I can then use it on Verizon. Are we really just talking about google assistant and hotspot as a difference between the two? I mean for me, probably rather have those with the 2720V. That said, the 2760 is twenty bucks! and the 2720V retails at $80 plus an activation fee. Having trouble finding a used one.
