Nokia 1616 is an affordable ultrabasic GSM mobile phone from Nokia announced on 4 November 2009[2] and released in 2010 for developing countries and budget users for a suggested price of €24 before taxes and excluding subsidies (SIM-free).

The device's main non-phone features are flashlight at the top of the device, and an FM radio. The radio requires a headset or headphones in lieu of an antenna to function, and can work in the background, thereby providing access to other phone tasks without having to turn it off.

A dual-SIM variant of the Nokia 1616 was released, known as the Nokia C1-00.
