The Nokia 225 is the best of Nokia's old-style phones with alphanumeric keypads. It's a refinement of the Nokia 220, but with a larger display, better battery life and a slimmer body.

This phone has a nice feel to it. But beware if you need extras like notes, to do lists it doesn't have them. Not many wallpapers either. Nor can you put more than on phone number for contacts, you have to list them twice. ie mum mobile, mum home. Bit of a pain.

Nice, old style Nokia, good battery life. Great screen, great photographs, radio excellent. Three issues; 1 messages memory fills up very quick, have to delete messages fairly often, 2 lacks Notes which was in other models, 3 Contacts unable to edit contact, stored all on one format.
