HMD, the company that makes Nokia phones, plans to reintroduce one of Nokia’s most popular models, the 3210, as per a recent report.
First launched in 1999, the Nokia 3210 quickly became very famous. It was the most common mobile phone at that time, with about 160 million sold by 1999.
This year, the Nokia 3210 celebrated its 25th birthday on March 18. It’s a symbol of the time when Nokia was the top brand for mobile phones, similar to how the iPhone is now. HMD hinted at bringing back an old Nokia model on X (formerly Twitter), and a Finnish store, Giganti (via NokiaMob), confirmed that it’s indeed the beloved 3210.
The big reveal is set for May 8, and the phone will go on sale on May 15. The new Nokia 3210 will keep some features from the original one but will also take cues from the Nokia 3310 from the early 2000s in terms of looks.
It will have some modern upgrades too, like a bigger 2.4-inch color screen (the old one had a smaller black and white screen) and a 2MP f/2.8 camera that can shoot 720p videos.
