Nokia 3310 is coming back

Nokia 3310, a mobile phone brand known and trusted for its durability is coming back after it went into hibernation for years.

The phone which was originally launched in 2000 is reported to be unveiled at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2017 and would be sold for €59 according to Evan Blass “EvLeaks” of Venture Beats.

The incarnated phone may be used as a second phone.

Reports elsewhere indicate that Nokia struggled to be successful in the smart phone industry and was sold to Microsoft.

Since then it has targeted success by making new versions of old phones, including the Nokia 215.

It also noted that phones made under the Nokia brand are now sold by HMD Global, a Finnish company that bought the rights to the name. HMD will reveal other new mobiles – the Nokia 3, 5 and 6 at the same MWC event.
