160 Million unit selling Nokia 3210 back on sale!

| December 28, 2010 | 11 Replies

The super popular Nokia 3210 from 1999 has been reissued by lekki and it is now on sale again for 85 Euros+9 P+P (source says 75eur, maybe there’s an offer?). For your texting, and basic gaming it’s a really wonderful phone and totally ahead of its time in features and design back in pre 2k era. It comes in Green, yellow, black or you can make your own.

Alternatively there are millions of fascia covers for the 3210 which easily changes the look of it, not just in terms of monoblock colour, but whole different prints and button designs.

Just how popular was the 3210? Well 160 Million units, that’s how popular. That’s more than the megastar 3310 which sold 126 Million (though it did have identical looking variants which also sonicboomed off the shelves).

If you’re over 18 and hadn’t seen a 3210 in person, your bed is obviously under a rock. Suffice to say, new youngins (ha) will probably never see monochrome screens in person unless in a museum or visiting an attic. The 3210 was almost my first phone had Argos (uk shop) had it in stock (see how popular it was? :p).

Cheers for the heads up keith!

      But does it come refurbished and with a new battery at that price? This possibly even comes with some warranty.
      However, it is more a novelty product than it is marketable. It would crack me up if this ’3210′ will do better in drop test, dropped call tests etc. than some of the current feature phones.

    So is this authorized by Nokia? :) And wonder if they changed any of the internals. Its probably a dual core blah blah blah as every phone nowadays is supposedly supposed to be. :D :D
