It’s pretty strange that in 2017, one of the most talked about phones unveiled at the Mobile World Congress show in Barcelona was a simple little feature phone from Nokia. But hey, 2017 is nothing if not strange. A reimagined version of the classic Nokia 3310 was announced in Spain on Sunday, positioned as a nifty homage to the original Nokia candy bar phone. About 125 million Nokia 3310 handsets were sold back in the day, and those puppies were solid as a rock. The new version looks cool and it’s nice and retro, but you know what they say: there’s nothing like the original. And wouldn’t you know… the original can be purchased right now on Amazon. Who’s up for a Throwback Monday?
