And I will bet money that the reboot is going to a cheaper shitier version of the original.
I hate how Microsoft sent a new CEO to Nokia, who then tanked the company, got them bought by Microsoft, and then was rehired in another role by Microsoft.
What makes it even worse is that they couldn’t even keep Nokia going once they did their takeover.
I’m still furious about the whole thing. It’s insane they got away with such blatant market manipulation. Microsoft is untouchable.
Me too. I always thought of Nokia as genuine innovator’s delivery good products. Not fantastic products. But good products with CONSUMERS in mind and their usage habits, rather than designing phones around optimizing selling us things.
I miss the designs. Nokia, sony, Motorola…. All trying stuff.
We gave up a lot to carry these black mirrors around.
And as a bonus, they (at least the Nokias and Ericssons) could be used as weapons.
I still have my 3310, but lost the charger. So I don’t know if it is still working.
My children now use what is basically a cheap 3310 copy (also from Nokia, no internet).
but lost the charger - Hey, I’m in the UK but I have a drawer full of Nokia chargers if you need one! ( I keep them to impress the ladies, along with my collection of IKEA Allen keys…)
Lol thanks. But I am in Germany. :)
It could always be used to level a foundation.
Does it have a replaceable battery and can I still use it as a murder weapon and place a call afterwards? Asking for a friend

Also interested in a daily dumb phone. Smartphones are… fine… but dumb phones are where it’s at. I had to stop using my BlackBerry Torch last year and I literally cried.
Just get an old one, they still work lol
(note: they might not work for making calls I dunno)
To call someone you need to have friends. Who needs friends when you have snake?
I’ve still got a 3310 in a drawer, it still turns on, and if I had a SIM card for it would be fully working as the UK still operates a 2G network (for now at least).
There’s even removable fascia plates still for sale on eBay.
