Users can still make calls and send texts, but the web browser, Snake game, and recording function are removed.
Instead, the phone includes a PIN-protected parental control system that allows parents to disable Bluetooth, MMS, and even the radio.

The hardware is similar to the standard HMD 105 4G, ensuring durability and battery life are not compromised.
