Nokia 2360 Flip Brings Back the Classic Design With a Feature That Could Save Lives

HMD has introduced the Nokia 2360 Flip in the Philippines, bringing back the classic clamshell phone design with features designed for senior citizens, children, and users who prefer a simpler mobile experience.

The new feature phone combines a familiar flip design with dual displays, a dedicated SOS button, parental controls, and a remote management feature called Family Assist. These additions aim to make the device easier to manage while giving family members more control over its settings and emergency contacts.

Dual Displays and Classic Flip Design
This flip phone features a 2.8-inch QVGA main display and a 1.77-inch external screen. The secondary display allows users to check incoming caller information without opening the phone. HMD also focuses on accessibility with large menu icons, clear text, and a tactile keypad. Users can answer calls by opening the phone and end them by closing the clamshell.

The device runs on the Series 30+ operating system and comes with a removable 1,450mAh battery. HMD claims up to 15 days of standby time and up to 27.5 hours of talk time. Other features include a QVGA rear camera with LED flash, FM radio, a loudspeaker, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and USB Type-C charging.

Family Assist Allows Remote Phone Management
One of the standout features of the Nokia 2360 Flip is Family Assist, a companion app available for Android and iOS. It allows family members to manage selected phone settings remotely, including adding contacts, adjusting volume, setting reminders, and updating emergency contacts.

Family Assist works through SMS, so the Nokia 2360 Flip does not need a mobile data connection to receive remote commands. However, standard SMS charges may apply. This feature is particularly useful for families who want to help elderly relatives manage their phones. It also makes setting up and maintaining important contacts and emergency information easier, even when family members are not physically present.

Dedicated SOS Button and Parental Controls
For emergencies, the Nokia 2360 Flip comes with a dedicated SOS button. Holding it for three seconds triggers a call to a preset emergency contact and sends text alerts to up to five configured contacts.

The phone also includes parental controls protected by a Family PIN. Its School Mode restricts access to the clock and emergency calls, while contact whitelisting allows parents to control who can call or send messages. Parents can also block selected applications, including the camera and games.

These features make the Nokia 2360 Flip suitable for parents looking for a basic phone for their children, as well as families who want a simpler handset for older relatives.

Connectivity and Other Features
This Flip phone supports dual SIM functionality and 2G GSM connectivity on the 900MHz and 1800MHz bands. It also offers 4MB of RAM and 4MB of internal storage, with microSD card support for expansion up to 32GB.

However, its 2G-only connectivity is an important consideration. Buyers should check network compatibility with their mobile operator before purchasing, particularly in areas where legacy 2G services are no longer available.
