Overview
Do you remember how Nokia got us feeling all nostalgic by re-releasing its iconic 3310 handset earlier this year, only to crush our dreams by making it available only in 2G? Well now owner HMD is righting its wrongs, last night relaunching the much-loved phone in 3G, complete with the device's hit game, Snake.
That's right, the best-selling handset is set to make a proper comeback, Snake and all. It will be released in New Zealand from November 7.
A new-school riff on a handset first released back in 2000, this little guy comes in two distinct matte colours (warm red and charcoal), retails at just $99 and boasts a six-and-a-half-hour talk time. It also features a new-and-improved customisable user interface, with an online browser that has Facebook and Twitter capabilities. Best of all, it's got an extra long battery life — just like they used to make 'em back in the day. So you'll be able to text your mates and play Snake all night.
The reborn Nokia 3310 3G will be available this November 7 through Spark. For more info visit nokia.com.
