The Nokia 3310: A Classic Never Fades or Breaks Hearts

Of course, Nokia 3310 is not only a phone but a reminder of the times when mobile phones were not complicated, could not break down and they were designed to last long. The incredible feature phone was introduced in 2000 and became a worldwide sensation since over 126 million handsets of this phone were sold and it gained the reputation of indestructibility. The Nokia 3310 is still special to many people, and although it is a nostalgic device, the beauty found in it is something that cannot be matched among the current smartphones. So, what makes this phone a legend and why its 2017 re-release keeps its legend alive? Let us take a shallow dip in it.



A durable Design

The original Nokia 3310 was a small tough phone with black and white screen and it was designed to survive anything. Known as the Nokia Brick, it attained cult status as cell phone that could take hits, bumps and even age. Its slim rounded shape made the phone fit perfectly in the palm and its physical buttons were easy to use making it a favorite among people across ages. At 133 grams, it was light weight, but durable, and had a long reputation of near indestructibility.


In 2017, Nokia 3310 was redesigned to fit the new era. The new model maintained the traditional outline and introduced a new touch with 2.4 inches colour display, a 2-megapixel camera, and a vibrant color choice with Warm Red, Yellow, Dark Blue and Grey. It crosses the lines between vintage and current design, like the polarized display, which makes it much easier to read in the sunlight. The construct of the phone is good, tough with a robust covering, which is the reinvention of the toughness in the first and is smart and new.



Indestructible Battery Life

A battery life is one of the strongest sides of Nokia 3310. When powered by a 900mAh battery the initial model could go days before requiring a recharge. You can chat hours or take it on standby during weeks, which was ideal to people who were not anxious to carry a charger in their pockets. The 2017 model takes it a notch higher by having a 1200mAh battery, and that provides 22 hours of talk time or 1 month of standby. That is why it is so suitable when someone desires to have a strong backup phone or a smartphone and does not need much more than connections and calls.



A combination of old-fashioned elements with modern facilities

Nokia 3310 will be the synonym of nostalgia, because of that Snake game. The new implementation of 2017 revives Snake with a colorful upgrade so that one can play again with the excitement of hunting new records. In addition to the gaming aspect, the phone has additional features that are modern such as Bluetooth, an MP3 player and a wireless FM radio and cannot be considered as a basic one. This also has a microSD slot which can support a 32GB (or 64GB) memory card (again depending on the model) to store music, photos, or other files.


Its Simple Feature OS or Series 30+ powering the 2017 model and makes the interface simple to browse. Although it cannot accommodate sophisticated apps such as WhatsApp, it suits people who desire to have a respite of smartphone notifications. It also incorporates the dual-SIM feature, which is convenient, particularly to people with two numbers including those used in work and personal purposes. A 2MP camera with LED flash does not promise a big capacity to take photos although it is not competing with the smart camera.



What is so good about the Nokia 3310?

The Nokia 3310 is given a twist in the world of the sleek smartphones, being simple and reliable. It reminds us of phones before the never-ending scroll. The 2017 model will find their fans among people who are interested in detoxing and do not desire to lose the main features. It is also a nice option for elderly consumers or anyone in search of a long-lasting, affordable product. It is priced at approximately Rs. 3200 to Rs. 3999 in India, which makes it a good value device when it comes to feature phones.


The Nokia 3310 left its cultural footprint. The phone has made its presence felt, from internet memes that have delighted in its indestructibility to being recognized as a national emoji in Finland. It was released again in 2017 with both 3G and 4G versions, which indicates that not all people have abandoned easy-to-use, reliable devices. This retro model may appeal to your nostalgic side, or it may feel more useful to you, but in any case, you need to know that in some cases, less is more.



Who to Buy It?

The Nokia 3310 perfectly suits the person who does not need all these extra features on a phone but only wants to make a call. It is ideal as a secondary phone to take with you when traveling, to concerts, or where you simply do not want to disrupt an expensive smartphone. Its simplicity usually renders it popular with parents and children or old relatives who require a simple cell phone to make calls and send messages. With its vivid coloring and its small size, it is a fashionable object for anyone who has a passion for retro things.



Final Thoughts

The Nokia 3310 is the testimony of the advantage of simplicity. its combination of longevity, great battery life, and sentimentality, makes it a highlight in the modern world of tech. Be it your old phone or a new phone disclosed to you by the rebirth of 2017, this phone will take you back to the simplicity of the early days when phones did not need so many functions. It is a reminder that in certain times, all you have to have is a stable phone, a fun diversion as Snake game, and a battery which could last you more than a day. Nokia 3310 is not only a phone that was and is a history that shines.
