The phone was released July 15, 2021 and is often priced around $35-$50. This phone currently has no recalls from the manufacturer. However, it does have some reported problems. Common issues include rapid battery drainage, SIM card malfunctions, and speaker problems. Despite these flaws, the 105 4G was a very popular phone at the time and was listed as one of the top models for the Nokia brand, with a total of 200 million units sold. This phone was most commonly sold in India, Southeast Asia, and parts of Africa because it is also compatible with the 2G and 3G networks in those countries. This phone is a lot less common in North America and the EU.
