It works, with caveats.

Works with caveats

Calls and texts work over 2G, but this is a 2G-only phone with no 4G. Vodafone's 2G is due to close in spring 2030, and then it will stop working.

Expect it to work, but read the switch-off dates below. That's where the catch is.

We worked this out from the phone's published bands and Vodafone UK's own published network facts (see How we check). Nobody has confirmed it for this exact pairing yet.

Vodafone UK (UK)

  • 3G: Switched off
  • 2G: Staying on for now; VodafoneThree says Vodafone's 2G closes in spring 2030

Nokia 105 (2023, 2G)

  • 2G: GSM (2G only)
  • 3G: No 3G
  • 4G bands: None (2G-only phone)
  • 4G Calling: no – Three's device page lists 4G Calling as not supported.

The same applies to networks that run on Vodafone UK: VOXI, Lebara. Smaller networks sometimes handle 4G Calling differently, so check with them too.
