HMD has added the Nokia 300 Charge to its 2026 Nokia lineup. The feature phone’s main selling point is a 3700 mAh battery, which HMD describes as the largest battery it has put in a Nokia feature phone. The phone also includes a powerbank mode for charging compatible phones, accessories, and other USB devices.
What is new about the Nokia 300 Charge?
The Nokia 300 Charge is designed around endurance rather than apps or camera features. HMD quotes more than 40 days of standby time and up to 37 hours of talk time, although those figures come with the usual conditions: standby time was measured in testing, and real results depend on network, settings, and usage.
The unusual feature is powerbank mode. The included 4-in-1 cable supports adapters for Micro USB, USB-C, and USB-A devices. That makes the phone more useful on trips, at outdoor events, or during a power cut, but the feature should be understood as emergency charging rather than a replacement for a dedicated powerbank.
Why the launch matters
Recent Nokia feature phones have often competed through familiar design, 4G connectivity, or nostalgic model names. The 300 Charge chooses a clearer niche: a basic phone that can also carry reserve power for another device. That gives it a practical reason to exist alongside smaller models such as the Nokia 110 Power.
The trade-off is equally clear. HMD’s product page highlights the battery, powerbank function, bright LED torch, and rugged grip, but it does not position the phone as a smartphone replacement. Buyers who need modern applications should look at the Android models in the Nokia catalog instead.
What to check before buying
Availability and exact configurations can vary by country. Check the local HMD listing, SIM configuration, charging accessories, and network support before ordering. Battery capacity also does not guarantee a particular number of days in daily use, especially where coverage is weak or the phone is used for long calls.
For now, the Nokia 300 Charge is best understood as a specialist feature phone: a simple communication device with unusually large battery reserves and a useful backup-charging function. Its full specifications and source attribution are available on the Nokia 300 Charge model page.
