A Nokia phone with a two-day battery life is about to be released in Ireland

The Nokia 2 will be available to Irish customers by the end of the month.

Most smartphone owners will admit to being lucky if a single battery charge will last them for an entire day; in fact, in many cases, considering we’re barely off our phones these days, it’s considerably shorter than that.

If battery life is an important consideration for you when choosing your mobile phone, then you may well be interested in the Nokia 2, which goes on release in Ireland later this month.

Claiming to offer two-day battery life from a single change (based on a real-life usage test by HMD Global), the Nokia 2 will be available to buy through Virgin Media in Ireland.

As well as a two-day battery life provided by a 4100 mAh battery, the phone also has a 5-inch LTPS LCD HD display, an 8MP rear camera and 5MP front camera and will offer users the full Android experience.

It’s the battery life that will likely attract most users, however, and while we’re not sure if it comes with Snake built-in like the old Nokia phones, you can always download another version of one of the greatest mobile games from the Google Play store.

The Nokia 2 will be available in black from €109 on prepay in Ireland from 26 February.
