if you think about it, a smart phone can run between 600-850$ retail price, phone companys just let you pay monthly for it or something else so you dont have to throw down all that $$ so a little under 300$ for this phone isnt un reasonable, just a little high considering the tech in it and what we are used to in 2017
Designer _lamps_ cost ten times more than cheap lamps, too - and they don't "do more" to justify the price. But looks matter. Anyway, look up Artemide lamps.
lol, costs the same as my huawei p9. simplicity can be achieve by installing a simple theme on android and removing socializing aps. even turning off mobile cellular data. willpower is everything.
You have the best presentation of punkt mp01 on TH-cam. Nice! I love the simplicity of this phone and I hope I will have the money to buy one, brown color is really nice! So how do you like punkt mp01?
Yeh No good for me. I'm with Three. I wouldn't say no to spending a week with a dumb phone though. I get through about 50 - 80 GB per month as I use my phone for everything. yes that is GB a month!!! [this month is 105GB so far with four days left ] It would be interesting to see how i deal with no Twitter, Showbox or TH-cam OnDemand. A Dumb phone with 3G would b great, but I could live with a 2G number I suppose.
A Rolex is thousands of pounds but it still only tells the time. What’s the problem someone wants to spend 250 on this if it’s build quality is much higher than a Nokia with the same features
Can you connect generic earphones to this? I had a look at this some time ago and couldn't work out if I would be able to connect a standard pair of earphones to it.
1:30 I do remember them, but not from making them on my iPhone. Unless...I'd ask if FaceTime counts, but you mean voice *only*, don't you? 4:10 Isn't that a question of settings? Two more possibilities come to mind, but I don't want to sound disrespectful. By the way, you may want to watch this presentation: th-cam.com/video/0DusE1Hi_Yc/w-d-xo.html The sound is not the best, but the presentation is still interesting. Please read my comment on that video to get you near the start of the presentation.
Can't even use the 3G network; all that money down the drain when they switch off 2G, if you wanted a dumbphone by a Samsung Galaxy Ace from 2011, so old now it can't do anything!
Just wanted to add that the Nokia 3310 (new 3g version) looks as smart, runs as cleanly, and is built like a tank for like $50. It does all the same stuff that this hipster/rich person/suburban mom ripoff product does and more without being a smart device in any sense of the word. There's this whole fad of "detox from the smart world because a simple life is so much better... blah blah". I hate to break it to you....actually i'm quite happy to break it to you: Dumb phones like this existed from the late 80's till the dawn of the smart phone in 2009, and guess what, they still make them today for like $30. If you're willing to spend $230 on the exact same thing I bought brand new that came out last year for $50 then you're just a fool with your money. Thats as if I decided that Gordon Ramsey's spaghetti and meatballs were worth the $250 price tag when I can buy the same meal from my local diner for $10. Sure the flavour is different, but the nutrition is the same.
Connor Probeck this sentiment is also not new but I still respect your freedom of choice. I imagine the guy who first sold a polished rock also upset those who liked the simplicity of just picking them up off the beach. I still have the MP01. In fact I’ve carried it longer than any other phone I’ve owned. Even the 3310. I hope you enjoy your Nokia in the same way. My favourite phone of all time was the Nokia N95. I still have it somewhere. It was a total game changer.
haha wow I wasn't expecting a channel owner reply, I was directing to your community more so, but thank you for the reply! I'm glad you enjoy your mp01, I really love my nokia 3310; I'm happy we both have the "take a break from smartphones and simplify life here and there" mentality. I hope more people will try it out for themselves in the future. Thank you for the reply and cheers!
i dont like this phone... this phone must have had smaller screen.. and more alarm/ring sound choices and must be thinner... then it can be a good dumb phone. (who are tired of notifications :)))
If it was half the price, I'd be straight onto this. As it stands, it's far too much cash for what it is.
The price is lunacy.
People are starting to wish for simpler phones like this so they're being smart I guess lol.
If people want to get a away from their satanic smart phone with this
They’re making the wrong choice
We still have .13 cent finances for flip phones
msul78 because you are cheap! It is a fair price , made in SWITZERLAND ! Go on with apple : 105 usd to make , 1500usd retail Hahahahahaha
Jupiter Eye Obviously you are not their target. Salary in Apple’s factory in China is 150usd/month . Minimum wedge in Switzerland is 3300usd. Count.
Yeah, it is. The Obama phones look just like that. $10
The exotic price justifies the awesome dark and sleek of this modern day feature phone.
Looks nice, but given how basic it is, what justifies the price tag?
Iain Murray great quality

Clean design, I guess.
I know right? They have those “throw away” flip phones for $30 that do similar.
Designer _lamps_ cost ten times more than cheap lamps, too - and they don't "do more" to justify the price. But looks matter. Anyway, look up Artemide lamps.
if it had mp3 functionality it’d be literally perfect
Thanks for sharing. Could you show the SMS interface--how to create and send SMS? Thanks again.
It's a pain in the bum
I love the front, hate the back!
Smooth delivery. Great first look for me.
How is it now? Review 2020? Is it like light phone? Difference?
Best review of the MP01, I'm curious what the texting interface is like, can't seem to find an examples on the web other than still images
macattacksraddstuff the wsj made a vid including this phone

You have the best presentation of punkt mp01 on TH-cam. Nice! I love the simplicity of this phone and I hope I will have the money to buy one, brown color is really nice! So how do you like punkt mp01?
I'm enjoying it's simplicity. thanks!
I hope you will do a review on punkt mp02.
Looking forward the the 1 week verdict ✌️
Nice video. Would be great to see more tech reviews. Andrew.
great for a spare phone. I think it should b 3G to support all four network operators. but I suppose. it's really ment to b as basic as possible
It's 2G only. Found out the hard way by struggling to get a Three Mobile sim to work... Nope :)
Yeh No good for me. I'm with Three. I wouldn't say no to spending a week with a dumb phone though. I get through about 50 - 80 GB per month as I use my phone for everything. yes that is GB a month!!!

I hope this phone is available here in philippines
pronounced 'poonkt,' if youre interested. it means 'point' in several germanic languages (norwegian for instance)
also, thanks for doing this review.
exactly. when you pronounce it like this way, it sounds silly (like, "punked").
please help me im buy brand-new punkt mp01 .but it not turn on ,why reason ,how to work it please help me
3:37 can someone please tell me how to obtain that midnatt ringtone?
Shashikiran Maravanthe it's the sound of a Loon. Could probably look it up in a ringtone app.
So i seen on the website it says it doesn't have internet..but can it access wifi? Because I'm trying not to have any wifi or internet on it at all
Mila Orellana the new version can act as a hotspot for other devices. It’s just phone calls and sms though.
Great video
I want to buy this phone in India.. Please please help me out

Partisan Pepe totally agree

Can you connect generic earphones to this? I had a look at this some time ago and couldn't work out if I would be able to connect a standard pair of earphones to it.
It comes with a minijack to MicroUSB adapter :)

1:30 I do remember them, but not from making them on my iPhone. Unless...I'd ask if FaceTime counts, but you mean voice *only*, don't you?

Does this phone works in India? Anyone please replyThanx in advance..
There is a new version out. Check their website as I'm sure it works globally.
And it is not quad band, it is 2g only
"do you remember voicecalls"? Really.
Proportional I probably use my phone for voice calls less than 1% of the time.
Wifi hotspot? Plz
For that you need the new version of the phone. The MP02
Did anyone know how to block an user on this phone ?
They made something that is supposed to solve a real problem, and then turn it around for a price that is impossible to even consider -- greedy corp.

Just spent 10 days on a boat. I mostly avoided the news and feel much better for it. Sometimes we just need to hit reset.
Won't work in the USA...
it's way over priced!!! I would buy it if it's less than $150!!
it's actually a monopoly!!
It doesn't work in the US
i dont like this phone...
this phone must have had smaller screen.. and more alarm/ring sound choices and must be thinner... then it can be a good dumb phone. (who are tired of notifications :)))
Hey, an Obama phone in disguise!
Доим лохов. Купи себе телефонную будку и поставь рядом с компом. И будет тебе счастье.
Ahahahaha. Nokia 1100. 17$
it's so stupid.
