At the 2017 MWC, Nokia will re-launch the world’s most reliable cell phone ever made – the Nokia 3310. Sold for the first time in the year 2000, this iconic handset is arguably the toughest and best-loved phone in history. Marking the beginning of the modern age, the phone was sold as a way of getting lots of battery life in a portable and nearly indestructible body.

Nokia’s 2017 version of their 3310 cell phone will become available for less than 60 Euro (or 63 USD) and is expected to be pitched as a reliable backup phone to people who fondly remember the first time this mobile phone was around. The full details about this upcoming Nokia phone will be made available at the Mobile World Congress 2017 where it is guaranteed to steal the show.

The original version of this amazing cell phone can still be bought online; however, Nokia itself has stopped producing it years ago.

At the moment little is known about what the exact specs will be on the new Nokia 3310, or whether it will sport any ‘’smartphone’’ features. Luckily we won’t have to wait long to find out the details as the 2017 MCW is just around the corner.

Top features of the Nokia 3310 launched in the year 2000 include a clock, calculator, the ability to save up to 10 reminders, and four state-of-the-art games: Snake II, Pairs II, Space Impact, and Bantumi. The Snake game turned out to be one of the first and most loved cell phone games of all time and is currently still available for modern iOS and Android smartphones via the App store.

Throughout the past several years Nokia has found it difficult to bring its brand into the smartphone era – resulting in the fact that it got sold to Microsoft. At the moment Nokia is back in Finnish hands and their phones are being sold by HMD Global. Its new strategy that has already proven itself to be successful is aimed at making new versions of old Nokia phones, including the Nokia 215, and now the Nokia 3310.
