NIU GO 21 Overall Review

The NIU GO 21 is a compact feature phone that reflects the design ethos and functionality popular in the mid-2010s for users seeking simplicity and efficiency. With a 1.8-inch display, the GO 21 is geared towards fundamental mobile phone uses like voice calls, SMS messaging, and basic multimedia functions. Its small screen size and physical keypad are hallmarks of its user-friendly design, prioritizing ease of use and durability.

Powered by a 650 mAh battery, it offers a modest battery life, suitable for the phone’s limited range of features, ensuring that it serves well for basic communication needs without the frequent need for recharging. Despite its simple offerings, the NIU GO 21 includes functionalities such as an FM radio, providing entertainment and practicality beyond mere communication.
