Can you list the banking "apps" available on a 3310?!

Haha!

​thanks for the reminder :wink:. just refresh my memory.,how do I check my email on this

Social workers are still issued with these in 2016

Beautiful phone, terrible slide always losing mic function. I used to buy up the nokia "banana" phone (7110 or matrix phone) paint various bits gold, and sell them on Ebay for reasonable profits. Ah glory days. I also love the Ericsson T10's & T28's

Dont bother with it. Mine turned up and doesnt power on

sold mine for 10g of solid in 2003 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dsd164.snake97&hl=en

You're damned right I would, then I'd put it on display and wonder "why the bloody hell did I buy that when I can play all the classic games on my PS4?"

Mine just arrived from Singapore, charging it up now!

NOPE! I bought a replacement battery for HTC phone. payment received but product never arrived, even after repeated communication /complaints.

Anyone received this yet?

What car, Delorean?


Just kidding, I bet after 2 years in the glovebox it still has 90% battery

You can still buy a new one for £250 from argos via ebay !!!!!

The 3310 was once used as a weapon

Worth that price just to play the original snake Alone

Really? You are about a week to late with this come back mate!

*Could

Oh, and where's the full stop at the end of your sentence?

:man:

could *have beaten

You could bounce it off a hard floor. Had the Kurt Angle music as my ring tone, loved this phone.

Gosh the nostalgia in here.

Sort of expecting when they arrive from China in like 2 months everyone will be back saying how badly refurbished they are :stuck_out_tongue:


Ooh I remember that thing. First WAP phone wasn't it? Really seems like yesterday that "2G" was a good thing.


Wasn't phones4u was it haha

This is the ultimate backup phone - virtually indestructible and almost infinite battery life. I still have mine many years on.

I think you'll find it's grammar nazis not police:p

Gaww my first phone was a 3210 and though it was great at the time, i definitely wouldn't replace my smartphone with it.

I do however know a few people who have these older phones which they keep in the car or take with them on holiday just in case.

Superman finally realised he could use a 3310 for carving kryptonite into garden ornaments.

Best phone I'll never have...

I paid over £250 back then so this is a really good deal haha. Also you are not buying the phone, you are buying the old days in your heart back so for less than a tenner it is extremely good deal!!

I would've if I'd known. Thanks for the heads up.
I get kind of sick of seeing these 'HUKD Pick' deals, but never hovered over the icon so never noticed it change.

Will be buying one. I have just got my parcel delivery from a deal I got on here last week iPhone cases and there great quality. So would recommended AliExpress Heat thx

That was a smartphone. I used Route 66 navigation and Viewranger GPS to get me from John O'Groats to Lands End by bicycle. & it had a surprisingly excellent camera - one photo of which I still use to this day (for a gravatar).
Loved that phone - even if the battery life was a joke :smiley:

Thanks to browsing this thread in bed last night, I had a dream about a dodgy salesman in a phone shop trying to sell me a bloody Nokia N95 in 2016, stating that it is "top of the range", "the fastest phone on the market" and "runs all the latest apps". I left the store fuming because of his lies, and woke up shortly after.

Or you could just click on the ''HUKD pick'' tab and hide it yourself :neutral_face:

I had one of these but the cover spring broke really really quickly!
To be honest this thread is filled with nostalgic sentiment but really my favourite phone ever was the Nokia 95 8GB. That phone was truly a revolution and a joy to use before real smart phones came along. First time I was able to put my entire music collection on one device and browse that awful internet! Yet still unbreakable. Just to top it off the camera was great.

Nokia 7110 "Banana phone" was my favourite, with spring loaded keypad cover....the nutz!

I had this too, great phone!

this was also my first phone too although much preferred my 3310! I had the 3330 - more memory, and the best version of snake out there... SNAKE 2!

You don't need Adblock element hiding....you just need self control.

If you don't like the deal, don't click on the link :wink:

What is wrong with people on here? It might have been a good phone back in the day, but that was back in the day. If someone posted a deal on a PS1 tomorrow for £25, would everyone get all nostalgic and make it scorchio? I think not! Some folk seem to be getting all gooey and likening this phone to their cherry-popper FGS.

This place really baffles me sometimes!

Thank god for "AdBlock Plus Element Hiding Helper" which enables blocking of that 'Featured' item from the other deals.

Thanks! I worked on that game :smile:

And mine!

I was just about to post this. I thought I was the dog's bullocks when I had one of these in 6th form. Still have it but there's a problem with the motherboard.

Sounds like a cock and ball story to me.

(sic)

Irony is that I've never dropped a phone as much as I dropped my 3310, had it for 2 years and by the end of that it was dented, scratched without next to none of the original paint on the case. It was regularly dropped and then kicked across the car park when getting out of the car, but it worked perfectly, the battery lasted a week and I could text faster on this then on any of the new phones with full keyboards.

Learned how to text blindly on this as well so I could message the missus with the phone in my pocket, great phone, great memories

My first phone, signal was brilliant as it had a pull-put aerial

Back then phones were used for making calls.:smile:

To comment on the hot votes, I can only echo Mr Spocks "Fascinating......"

The author of that article is recommending a FreedomPop SIM to go with it. Epic fail!

Now you're famous http://www.coolsmartphone.com/2016/06/12/this-is-the-best-phone-is-the-world-for-less-than-10

its gotten so much heat but looking at the transaction history I see not one single person has actually gone and bought this (since this post).. haha

Great phone; back when phones were phones and men were men.

Does it have snake on it?#!

The Panasonic VS6! My grandfather had that phone. Had a great screen and camera compared to other phones released at the same time. Loved the button on the side to open the phone.

the vibrate on this was akin to a rampant rabbit deluxe model...

I paid over 10 times this back in 2000 for this phone

I preferred my Sony Mars Bar. It had a retractable antenna too. But I do admit to years later upgrading to a 3310. I gave it to Barnardo's.

with the larger battery it was an amazing phone

wow are these still in use? love its longer battery life though

My first phone was Ericsson t18 after seeing the g model year before and thinking that's small enough to put in my pocket that was the acid test for me then a Nokia 8210. I recently sold my 6510 to a drug dealer for 15 GBP they are the only people who buy 8210 in particular and 6510 as they can transfer clients numbers by irda and can't be traced no data.

I still have mine 6510 n it still works

My fav looking phone of the noughties :



Had to see the leds light up to fully appreciate though.

Sorry, but best phone was 3210, not "squeezy-el-cheapo-plastic" 3310. And later 6310, but not so popular.

I've got two of them in the back of a drawer. Both were working when we stopped using them. What am I supposed to do with them? Use them as paper weights?

coolest kid at school 2001 with my Nokia been an bad ass playing worms with the latest tech on the market lol

Imagine the muggers face "gimme your phone"
"here it is"
"wtf"

I used to like the Nokia 402, great battery life clear voice and volume. But I wouldn't swap my smart phone for it now

​It's probably still on its first charge too...

yeah bought one on here http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/virgin-mobile-lobster-700-tv-29-99-31757?page=2#comments

sold it for £75 :laughing:

Awesome deal :smiley:

Still got a 3310 in the drawer, put it on charge, shoved a giffgaff sim in it.................. It's alive! Must be 5-6 years since it was last used & the poor BLC-2 battery still holds charge!

Still use a 6310i as glove box phone! Who remembers the Virgin mobile "Lobster"? First phone I ever watched TV on!

Definitely. I put one of those through a full cycle of a pint glass washing machine, then drop kicked it around a cricket club. Worked perfectly.

also phones refubished badly... on place where says made in... it says made by nokia.....wtf???

this one cheaper...8.67 plus via topcashback you can get for around 8.10......http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Original-Nokia-3310-cheap-phone-unlocked-GSM-900-1800-Refurbished-free-shipping/32674546107.html?spm=2114.01020208.3.1.uuQFZ9&ws_ab_test=searchweb201556_8,searchweb201602_1_10017_507_401,searchweb201603_1&btsid=56b0f21e-efd3-43f7-9447-b07cff8794b2

8910i as my work phone, the look on people's faces when I answer the phone :smile:

I'm still rolling with this

My favorites

Me too :stuck_out_tongue:

I thought aliexpress was banned from hotukdeals

lol you muppet

Because you can NOT be 'Tracked' via such Phones, that's all .....

As not EVERYONE you'll come to meet (with such a volatile job & stuff), will be pleased to see you, etc?, so ..... lol.

My dad still has one of these, they are the king of old school phones. Built properly, excellent battery life and one of the best user interfaces of all time.

I had one of these, I had a nice cover with slip down guard over the keypad. But for some reason it stopped recieving a signal. I think it got wet when camping in my back garden when I was 12 :smiley:

I loved my Nokia 5110 so much I bought one again for the nostalgia not so long ago & to show my children what "mobile" phones were like back in daddy's day! Here's my Nokia 5110 now running on Pebble - now with better signal than ever before :wink:

​A what??

Who's he, a Spanish king?

still the best lol

Buy it for sovineor

I had the 3210. And loved it. Had different covers and then holograms that went between the screen and case. And the round sticky things that flashed when you got a cal and text. Then bought the 3510i which introduced me to Wap. O2 chat, speed dating and Wapoc.

Social workers are still issued with these in 2016

That was boss phone.

this is a drug dealers wet dream

We had these as work phones, but I though it was a pile of crap. lol Never worked like they should, and I never liked how it worked. Nokia for teh win. \o/

Apps...3310

Amazing !! Super hot

You couldn't possibly have expected this thing to make video calls and access the web?

Not spelling either Brought is spelled correctly, just used in inappropriate context. However if no money changes hands then "brought from the shop" would be correct....

I'm still using the number that came with my 3330 now, came with a Genie sim, unlimited wap, and its also how I met and now have been married to my hubby for 11 years this year! A little known chat site called Mopilot, now I'm going back some year!! Lol :laughing: I owe a lot to my little Nokia <3<3

Won't work with any 3g or 4g

Oh yes!! I just remember having it, never made any calls on it, just had it to show off lolol :laughing:

Don't have this one, but my husband's earlier phone was a Nokia 3510 which, I believe, still works. It is in a drawer and has been used as a spare in the past. My 20 year old son's Nokia 1600 which was his first phone in year seven is still in use by me. I have had it nearly 8 years now since my Philips Savvy died!

I bought and sold those, remember driving miles to every carphonewarehouse (they'd only let me buy 2 a time) and doubling the price on fleebay. I kept one for myself and it got water damaged. Sold that too for a profit, I could NOT believe it. Those were the days.

brilliant, my dad used to have one of these. We used to nick it off him to play snake.

I remember the first phone that we had in about 1997 was the Motorola Manhattan:



With an honourable mention for the 6800 a few years later!

I still have this nokia phone and I'm still using it! The longer people laugh at my ancient phone the longer I will keep using it, while there smartphones crash and run out of juice every 5 minutes. Works perfectly and yes I am under 50.......

That's because saltwater is lethal to electronics, normal water not so much as long as it dries out.

A mate of mine at Uni had that exact phone. They sold so few, he might be your cousin!

We still use these at work, being a manufacturing environment that can at times be a little harsh these along with other Nokia's from back in the day are the only phones that for their cost stand the test in the sometimes dusty oily conditions.

Have one brand new. :smiley: Got it few years back in woolworths closing sale for £10. Brilliant phone.

That was the golden age of phones. Remember having every latest Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Samsung handsets at the time every time.

I wonder what battery life is like on these "refurbished " ones. Back in the day they would (battery charge) last for ages.

Worth it just for snake and the battery life.

Well 'educated' is a bit strong, but - yes. :stuck_out_tongue:

All sims are 2G by default - for the voice network

Great phone, but my personal favourite phone ever is the 6230i.

Thank you for this, my 87 year old grandad was using one of these until recently when it finally gave up the ghost. We got him a new, basic Nokia but he's never been able to get on with it. He'll be delighted to get his 'old new' phone back :laughing:

Best phone ever to put in your showcase only, a true antique piece

i dropped my 3310 down the toilet and it still worked! my s6 fell out of my pocket and into the sea, but it broke :S

I work in a hotel and I was called up to a room yesterday. The old lady occupying the room had one of these sat on the side. Couldn't believe it. Not seen one in years.

No, they don't. However, they used to have a fallback position with Orange, iirc, so if there was no 3G signal you could still make out take calls. Think that option doesn't exist now, but 3's sim cards must have allowed 2G in the past.

Who needs a refurbished when you still have your original from back in the day :sunglasses:

Don't forget your 7.5% quidco!

My first phone

Not so.. Three don't have a 2G service.

Three don't have a 2G service.

What version of Android does this run?

I'm still using mine on its first charge.
Compared to the **** iPhone battery life.

Hilarious stuff

Don't worry, by craftily deleting that faux pas, no one is any the wiser

Apps??

Not grammar police. Spelling. Guess you were educated in the south of England too.

All sim cards operate on all bands, ie 2G 3G and if the phone supports 4G. In this case 2G covers more of the country than 3G so they'll have great signal regardless of their sim

Yep, when a phone was a phone, a device mainly for TALKING to other people, with just an alarm clock and calculator thrown in as extra features.
I put one of these modern smartphones to my ear to talk and it's like putting a sharp-edged glass brick to it, all flat and hard, and the screen does god knows what when I touch it to my ear too fast. Argh! This isn't progress. I'm actually going back to my simple Nokia as a talking device and using my smart phone for the rest: mp3 player, map, weather checker, emailer, Skyper, recorder, camera, stopwatch, Shazam-er, gaming device, translator, sleaze-enabler and calendar. There's room for two devices in my ample trouser pockets.

cold not 4k
not 3 gb ram
no sd slot

Quality engineering, managed to make it smaller than most phones now

8250, 8810 both beat that.

Great for spying on people. Isn't that the point of this phone? Of course, might look a little out of place...

Well, still using two of them, love them!

​Well obviously as phones become more complex more things can go wrong so it's a pointless comparison. You either stay in 2000 and have one of these, or you accept less battery life etc and move with the times

I have used Aliexpress for dozens of transactions, paying with my VISA card. Aliexpress store the details. I think the actual website is one of the best to use on the entire net. Automatically translates to English. You can select currency displayed, free shipping items etc. Only thing I do not understand is how you can buy a packet of seeds for seven pence post paid to UK. Is the British Post Office getting paid anything to deliver the item in the UK?. I know a lot of items are shipped by air, but what happens to the cost for the final delivery?
I do not use any dodgy porn sites etc. and the biggest risk to any web user is dodgy emails. I got caught by one from a friend whose machine had crapware installed. Fortunately it was only spam I got caught with. I always format hard disk, and install Windows again. I have dozens of arguments about this, but I have never seen a machine with crapware installed cleaned 100%.

I nicknamed my 3310 Cl#toris as every c#&t had one

Almost 2000 degrees! So AliExpress IS accepted FINALLY as a reputable e-tailer.

can't believe it's gone this hot :smiley:

Luvvvvvvvvvv'ed this Phone!, and always wanted this Phone too, but never had this Phone. :-(

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! .. life?, hehe. :-)

You are JOKING right ..... :-(

Hahahahahaha.

I bought mine with a Genie SIM that had unlimited WAP. It had grey fascias. I remember being annoyed to find that the screen on it was terrible compared my first phone. The Mitsubishi Trium Geo (something like £20 from Tesco) despite the fact it cost a fortune (close to £200 if I remember correctly).

I used to have the 3330 on Orange it had light blue fascias i can still remember the summer of free WAP spent every minute possible using it, and there used to be websites where they'd have ringtones you could recreate in the ringtone maker instead of buying them

What about the Nokia 7600?



I had the misfortune of choosing this one on an 18 month contract.... I had to endure some serious abuse over it! Bizarrely, I managed to sell it for more than I paid for it even after the contract was up..?

I know, but I was always hoping it would become extremely rare and I could make my fortune selling it!

¿Qué?

Apparently it's a CMR-111. You'll remember the two different aerials you could fit, with the longer one for a better signal, apparently! And the coloured led's for signal strength..

​still have mine. kept as a standby.
keep battery topped up once a YEAR but it never seems to lose its charge.
aaah. the good old days (?)

bestest phone ever
heat!!!!!!!!!

​.... could HAVE .....
NOT ..... could of....

Plenty of phone boxes around back then.
Most people would have had to go there to get the number of the local taxi firm anyway.

​....like ....
Why the need for "like"?
Don't tell me!
That's how you speak.
Delete the "like" and speak English!!

No signal either :wink:

OMG OMG OMG You found it!!! I've been trying to remember what the model of this Sony phone was. It was my first phone and everyone poo pooed it saying it was too small and was a girly phone. Right until we got kicked out of the club at 2am. Then I was the most popular guy in the group as I was the only one who would have a phone on me (everyone else's was too big) and I could call the taxi.

Seeing as some of us are getting all sentimental, my first phone;



May even still be in its box in the loft, and yes, no screen...

Thanks for the info. I'll forward it to Finnish friend.

God this thread brings back memories lol.

Wonder what the future brings?

This didn't take a credit card sized SIM. This took what I would now call a standard sized SIM, the largest size in a micro and nano trio.

​and so you should have been. lol, I remember even in 99 telling someone on the bus how rude they were taking a phone call. that's social stupidity for you.

must admit, my smartphone call quality is shxxe compares to when I had one of the bad-boys. no one can hear me scream...

Yeah Microsoft bought Nokia....

this won't work if you're on 3s network, but who gives a sxxt, buy one, play snakes, pretend your young and cool again. :confused:

I watched this for far too long...

I've just shed a tear at the photos of probably the best mobile telephones ever made!!

Just a word of warning be careful when you order via aliexpress as i ordered an item which only cost £2.19 but when I was looking at my online transactions I noticed I was charged a £1.55 fee!
And that's was a post on here

Funny you should ask that... Have a look at this...

Nokia no longer the butt of tech jokes
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-36496331

Peasants it's called the Motorola V50

Ahhh the uneducated Googler I love it when people use the internet to obscure their lack of intellect.

The 3330 had WAP, the 3310 did not.

Puts smartphones batteries to shame!

So far 74 people have completely missed the point of the post you replied to.

still using one and holds the charge for 10+ days. over 50000hrs talk time! beat that ANY smart phone......and 12yrs old :-)-

Legendary phone by Nokia!

The 3410 was my first phone. The nostalgia feels are strong in this thread.

finally we can type again without looking at phone!

Ive still got mine :smiley:

how I loved my nokia's especially the 8210 & 8310

​I once had a couple scoundrels nick one of these out of my open van window while I was in the back, heard them and as I shouted at them, they stopped running off, assessed the phone, then one of the threw it back,.

Electromagnetic radiation:

"a kind of radiation including visible light, radio waves, gamma rays, and X-rays, in which electric and magnetic fields vary simultaneously"

You asked the following question;

"What kinda phone produces radiation"

The NHS have provided you with the answer;

"Electromagnetic radiation"

Really can't see why you're going off on a tangent when your question has now been answered.

There are three types of radiation Alpha, Beta and Gamma none of which come from a phone.

You are talking about microwaves totally different.

No need to buy - original one still works and has battery life.

I had a 3310 and then upgraded to the 6230. The 6230 was awesome!

Classic Nokia 3310. Bullet proof. Drop it, throw it against a wall and it comes back for more.
A phone for phoning talking to people plus the snake game.

I remember the iPhone 3G!!!!

Just saw that - but IIRC they used some prototype in the Matrix? that was between the 8110 and 7110?

Now the banana phone was the 8110


i remember having to choose between this and the 5110 - went for the 5110, think i liked the coloured covers and the central confirmation button

​false, the phone survived, Norris broke his bones and pride.

Is it true that chuck norris is the only person known to break one of these?

Brilliant :smiley:

Ha yep me too and had to claim on insurance for it after it fell out of my pocket into a dry-cleaning machine! Was dubbed as the banana 'matrix phone' that never was!

This was my first phone - thing was bulletproof! It went swimming in a puddle one night and still worked faultlessly!


Heh I remember going to US with my 3210 and a guy in a phone shop swoon as he had not seen one! Agree it was one of the best by far!

Oh the simple days...

Haha yeah. I used to have the grey one with the white snake skin Facia, I used to spend ages typing in all the ring tones haha, they lasted forever and never smashed a screen on any of my old phones or even broke them

I'd forgotten that. Still one of my favourite handsets - but this was back in the days that you had to trade in your handset on upgrades.

My wife's first phone was a Philips Diga (that she got when I was out of the country for work cos she knew I'd go mad). Mine was a Motorola brick of some sort when Tesco Mobile launched with a £29 payg deal(?!?).

Then I got my 3210 on contract. Still have a working OVP Virgin sim on a Motorola Slvr (Red).

Indestructible!!!!

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this can be used as a 'spy phone'

Basically you download spy mode. activate it, put a sim in,leave it in your house or whatever,then when your out you just ring the number and you can hear voices/background etc

you will see them for sale on a certain internet site

Had so many of these awesome phones, have fond memories of Ericsson T10

and Nokia 8310

And you could type in your own ring tone but took 30 minutes for a 12 second melody hahaha

Your mum is a legend!

I had the 6310 and then I thought it wasn't street enough. So I got the 6310 aiiii.....knowwadimeanbruv

I had a T29i with purple highlights. Just a touch cooler imho.

Unbelievable

HOT, HOT, HOT!

​Brilliant get over it

Every mobile phone ever made....in the form of electromagnetic radiation:wink:

What?

Maybe check before you post. You are wrong - they work fine. My mum uses one.

Worth it for Snake alone!

Oh how I miss that lovely creaky case

Yes!! Philips C12!!! Had the best ringtone tho "Dreams" haha

There was - it had WAP!

Cold not 1080p

Ahh' back in the day when having a phone was actually considered to be cool :sunglasses:

Great as a backup phone as the battery will last ages!

I preferred the 3210 to the 3310 but for style the 8210 was the bees! :smile:

Old Nokia, drug dealers phone of choice

I worked for the now long gone Time Computers, and we had a mobile concession up the back of the shop. They got a Startac as a trade in, and lost the bit of paper with the code. The manager said if I could find the code I could keep it. Took me about 3 days to get to it as you could only put in 2 wrong entries (a 3rd would permanently lock it) before having to switch it off and on again. Finally got to 9723 and it was mine.

Felt like I was on Star Trek when I used it! Loved that wee phone.

Totally agree great phone

I've been using it a lot & had no problems at all. They sellers are very quick to offer refunds etc as its a bit like e-bay where they need good ratings

Nokia will launch a new phone soon. <3

When I first saw a Motorola startac, I was amazed by its size. That was a jump forward in technology right there

Classic phone but I'd rather have one of these.

​apologies is the 5110!

my first phone I believe was the 3210? the one with the express front covers. I loved that phone. Nokia back then was the No1 phone, no other phone manufacturer compared!

Still have mine in a drawer next to me right now! Removable covers , and better customisation of tones than my mates phones at the time (the bt cellnet ones)

offer phone for comparison



Deal wise this is poop though, you can get a new nokia 100 for this price! I have one sat in my car for emergencies. Wouldn't trust the chinese refurbs here!

Radio waves is not radiation.

So..... You're suggesting buying new instead of old is less of a waste of "world resources"......:smile:

All of them?

​Are you on or off duty?

Not entirely sure why this is so hot other than nostalgia. Least it harks back to a time (DCT3) when you had to know your FBUS from your MBUS, YouTube wasn't around yet and people actually had to know what they were doing when changing things.

Great phone but will not touch aliexpress again after some very poor service

I've got 2 of these in a drawer somewhere...

Radiation? What kinda phone produces radiation? A plutonium powered one? :smile:

Iphone 7 is way better!

Their policy about not getting what you ordered is rubbish afaic. This from ordering 2 watches. 1st came with gouges that were plated over. I took no action due to the cheap price not being worth the time. Second watch was hideous and ugly and not what ordered so went for the refund with AliExpress after getting no joy from the seller. Only gave me half my money back.

Just a picture of one then??

Yes around 2 years ago.

8210? I had one. Amazing. I could speed text without looking at the phone. It was with me a long time. Pretty indestructible. I charged it every now and again.

​fact!

nostalgia i still have one with original charger in one my cupboards, remember going into pub with one
great phone for it's time, what model was the next after this 3330 ?

By the time they added the "7" to mobile numbers (wasnt that around 96/97?) I had left 1-2-1 and was on Orange, same Motorola Flip but a different model number, I moved onto my First Nokia an Orange badged NK402 (5110) followed closely by an NK702 (6110) which I still have here somewhere along with my trusty unlocked 3310 that was modded with Blue LEDS when I got it. Still works too. Currently running on a spare PAYG EE SIM.

My daily phone is an iPhone 6+ which replaced a very disappointing Galaxy s3 - Id never buy anything Smasung again after 2 bad experiences. Sad to see what happened to Nokia, the 3310 harks back to the days when they made phones of unbeatable quality and performance.

And for the sourpuss whining about "trips down memory lane" no one forces you to read posts here... ignore what doesnt suit you. For some finding old tech like this may just be a great thing for elderly relatives who still prefer this basic but reliable tech.

.. And this isn't a website for Hot Headed UK nuggets either! Puppet.

Noone can bother you for not answering/replying though...some costs are worth it :wink:

ive still got my number though

it went from 0956 to 07956......ive even found the m301 in my uncles garage

Thats some rebrand, gold star for their honesty though :wink:

I used to love a flip phone. No greater way to finish a call.

My "world leading, multi million turnover" employer still uses these! Wtf! They cost a small fortune, always breaking down. Neanderthals:D

Do you know it's crap like this that gives HUKD a bad name. You can buy a brand new basic phone for about 4 quid.

This isn't a "Let's skip down memory lane" Website. It is a money saving website and this sure as hell isn't a hot UK deal. Muppets.

Most of the new sims I have seen recently are multi sims that come in 3 "template sizes" that allow you to simply pop out the size of sim you want.

My first handset in 1995 - a Motorola M301 flip phone on Mercury 1-2-1 (0956 code - no 07 stuff back then ) took a credit card sized sim.
Ah good old 1-2-1 with free evening calls to adjacent dialing codes.

​Was the sim card a full size credit card size on this model? I think I had this too

bullet test..

Jumping on the bandwagon, this was my first phone.
The Ericsson A1018s on One2One:



Even remember the tariffs they had; More2Say and Up2You. Think one of them had 2p weekend calls, and the other tariff had 5p/min calls after you'd made the first two minutes of calls at full price (30p).

i found this in my uncle garage

one2one, they had a offer of free calls anywhere in the world on Christmas Day 1993

my cousin purchased the phone and contract

I got new version of that

:smile: Haha, O2. The greatest 2G network but worst 3G and 4G network...

More indestructible than Chuck Norris.

No, it's because Three have never supported 2G handsets. If you stick a Three SIM in any 2G device, it'll register on EE 2G initially before sending you a warning text advising you to only use a 3G or 4G handset, and then it'll disconnect from the network.

Worth buying just to play centipede, I'd say! :-)

Good job it's fully GSM compatible then :smiley:

Not a single person has mentioned that no doubt most of us are using micro or nano sims & these old phones use the good old standard sized sims or Large Sims

Last good phone anyone made...

great phone in it's day

How are they going to ship these these days, with the way couriers throw parcels about, they're going to destroy warehouses and vans.

Just me then? :disappointed:

Buy 50 of these and strap them together and you've got yourself a bulletproof vest

I had a bright blue pager on one2one haha

No o2 ? Are they rebranding ?

Still have mine, 3310, 3210... have a box full of old mobiles I have loved and left for a new partner in crime :smiley:

Not as indestructible as you may hope - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMXmhvzPiQI

does people even bloody know thier will be NO 2G in UK from next year or so !!

​That's cos they don't work b'cos their crap!

Can someone page me more info about this deal please.

Well kids can't be voting this hot... Most of them weren't even a Drunken mistake, when this came out.

​U ask this 'after' you started using it !?!?!?!?!?

It's safe in terms of the fact that it is a well established site. However, in a similar way to other sites, the sellers on there are independent - you aren't dealing with AliExpress, they are just a portal for sellers.

I've bought quite a lot of stuff from there, including electronics. You just have to be careful what you are buying as everything is cheaply manuafactured Chinese clone goods (in most cases). Everyone I've dealt with there was fine, until one transaction when a satellite box turned up scratched, with loose parts, broken front screen etc. You would have to send any item back to China if there is fault - there is no real "buyer protection" other than return goods for a refund and hope the seller is genuine and admits to getting the goods back (if the cost of posting stuff back is worth it).

If I buy this do I have to top up £10 on Friday to get texts on Saturday and Sunday?

Umm why would anyone wanna buy this phone for £9?

I wouldn't really advise trusting American firmware either. The American and British governments and their "intelligence" agencies have been proven to be malicious in nature, particularly towards their own people.

Definitely never run a manufacturer's ROM, if only for avoidance of bloat.

​The washing machine did not survive though...

Top backup phone

My husband still has his and uses it Needs new battery as that doesn't last long.

AAAAAAHHHHHHHH
IT'S THE DEVIL!!:confused:
:laughing::wink:

We used to shake them to improve signal reception to send that all important text. I swear to this day it worked!

Jeez haven't you got big hands and really red skin

Heat! Best phone I ever had :smile:

This was mine!



I remember getting it from one of the major electrical retailers, it had it's own mobile shop inside the store but was a separate company?

Can't remember who it was though, DX communications rings a bell?

What's the radiationl level on these compared to an up to date phone, seriously?

Do i still get 'Every Day 50' with this??

​Addiction....

I don't need it but am sooooo tempted :laughing:

Lol, I've still got one.....locked to O2 if I remember correctly

I had the first true "Smart Phone", before the term was even invented: :smile:

They sell it to you. No need to bring anything to them.

I still have one of these in a draw somewhere :-)

people still buy and use these old gems? loved the 3210, 3310, 6310, 8210, 8310 and the classic 8850! oh and dont get me started on the scirocco lol

While all my friends had the 3210 I had the awesome 7110, luckily I had insurance as I ended up sending it back 5 times when the "flick Slide" broke :stuck_out_tongue:

My first was the 5110 like many others have said. I was very uncool as I was 17 when I got it and every other kid at college already had a phone that was better.

how much?!

The little Nokia I have is even older than this, but it does everything I want it to - i.e. make calls and send the odd text. Battery life is amazing.

Brings back memories of my first mobile in 1992 cost £250 on a contract, £25 month and 50p a minute but got me loads of work as a courier ....................

miss them phones.

Cold, battery only lasts 25 years after one charge, not 25 minutes.....

​whoop whoop

This was my first ever mobile phone when I taught year 7.

How did you ever live without the Matrix?

That's how Steve Ballmer got his bald head, people were throwing their 33xx phones at him

My first phone was a Bosch 509e. Was pretty cool because it lighted up all Orange!, then I moved to a Sony Ericsson T610.

My first ever contract phone in 2000/1. Before that I was stuck on p&g with nokias.

He got confused with TVs lol

you're not supposed to watch TV on a mobile phone.

Just need a Genie sim to put in it!

Remeber this brick? My 1st phone.. loved it.

<3 Hipsters

Memoriessssss..

Does this have Wi-Fi? :stuck_out_tongue:

For reasons I won't go into, my 3310 emerged from years of hiding under a pile of junk only last night.

I can confirm that the 3310 is indestructible, but the battery is not (its not charging) :disappointed:

​Nice selfie mate

Well said. Thought I'd just attended a phone discussion by loonies not to be taken seriously. But they ARE.
Why not praise the earlier housebrick "mobile phones" too ?

Do these make good doorstops?

Ive got loads of old phones and newbits for refurbishing .. 3210 was best looking phone.

Manufacturing a brand new phone uses far more energy and resources than recycling an old phone. Same with cars.

still the coolest phone

I preferred the 3330 because it had WAP.

I seem to remember I had to set an auto forward on my email account to my phone number @virgin (who I was with). Of course back then you only got 4 emails a week, nowadays it'd be full in seconds. I receive over 100 emails a day just on hotmail! Admittedly maybe 2 are useful :stuck_out_tongue:

Found my 6310i, 3310, 8210, first 3 phone (chunky thing with a rotating camera) and the car cark91 kit for the Nokias. All in original boxes, used but with manuals and charges and loom kit for vw/Audi/Skoda.

They never were...

This was the first mobile I used (or one very like it, was my dads).


But the 1st phone I ever truly owned was thanks to the Matrix, the Nokia 8110.


Regards
Flea

My first phone was a plastic cup and string.

Lol You gotta point....ha ha

Looool

Oh dear. This brought back old memories for me. Thanks OP.

Here it comes with charger + free delivery + can collect at argos for £12.99

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NOKIA-3310-UNLOCKED-MOBILE-PHONE-SIMPLE-BASIC-TOUGH-RUGGED-SIM-FREE-/371644970423?hash=item5687c435b7:g:P0gAAOSwgQ9V6t10

I had go this one for £149. Flippin heck

Is this coming with charger?

I appreciate you.

all they had to do was remove the concrete it picked up along the way

or the tape

In parts of Africa, they still use SMS banking to do small transactions and balance checks

My first digital phone was the Orbitel 902, with what was described in the press as an “earlobe defroster” feature - basically the phone would get quite hot if you were on a long call, probably one of the starts to the idea that you’d get cancer from a phone's RF… :confused:

i would go for this deal but id prefer a pager

I had that phone,but I did upgrade mine with some front covers from the local Sunday market,and a nice flashing aerial :smile:

the phone was released in 2000 , 16years later do you really think they are still making them or have tons of unsold stock? :smile:
Actually refurbed by the chinese for these means - they got a new case on and a new battery and a new charger! the guts are however from the actual old phones, if you think the casing will be as durable as when it was in 2000 you are wrong as the cases for these are chinese-made not the original things.

That was my first mobile too!! Loved it, weighed a ton!! Lol

It did have email! Couldn't work out how to do it though. Think i remember you having to enter lots of proxy mumbo jumbo and other technical stuff

Still got my 3330, complete with Eeyore front and back covers......awwww makes me feel all nostalgic <3

People, Please stop wasting $ on stuff you don't need, I had this phone when it first came out, compared nowadays to same price £10-£15 button phone nokia that phone was utter garbage. It's heavy, It isn't as durable as they make you believe, and the battery lasts for like a week max on it.. nowadays nokia button phone batteries last for a month+ and they are as durable as this ancient thing, let alone the extra features such as radio/flashlight.

Stop wasting earth resources on stuff you just want to buy for ''fun'' , if you really need extra phone buy a decent modern button phone for the same price!

For multiple perfect version of snake..
And you can google "retro ringtones" if you want some Nokia tone goodness.

Well, my first phone was the original Nokia 100. £25 a month purely for the line, and 25p per minute (chargeable in minute increments) per call.

It's in $$ do they charge for the UK delivery

Has to be 5210 for me, used to play catch 50 metres apart in the school field with mine back in the day, indestructible :smile:

I wouldn't say they are any better / worse to be honest, it's more down to the network in my experience.

I had to lean out the Window with my Nokia 3210, Ngage QD and Nokia 6630 to get signal, all on o2.

With my Nokia N95 i moved over to Three and have had full 3g signal at home ever since. (Now 4g).

o2 devices do actually get full signal in my house now too, although that didn't happen until sometime in 2010.

I haven't laugh so hard in weeks

Oh man, I had one of those too. Terrible.

I'm not sure what you'd need to do to a 3310 before it would need to be refurbished, but I know I don't want to find out.

Nokia 6310i - the best phone I ever owned......I loved it soo much I bought two as spares and used them from 2003 until 2006.

I did love my Startac's though, I had a 70 and then a 130 - I always wanted the super rare silver version though

8210 was a great phone.

Mine too, I could get email on it but they came as texts and IIRC it could only hold 10!

Could HAVE.

You wear a cock on your belt?

Still the smallest phone I've ever owned ! after that they all started to go bigger again.
The 8210 was used for the cool factor, it was a pain to text with such small buttons but you wouldn't tell anyone because you thought the phone was too cool :smiley:

I think this phone will be fake as it's coming from aliexpress, if you think about it, considering how basic the phone is, it won't be hard to fake.

Same

Still can't believe nobody has mentioned the 8210!

The height of coolness in '99!

It's kind of hard to have brought anything from Aliexpress 'cause they're like in Hong Kong or China and you're in UK.

never had a nokia, my first mobile the Ericsson T28s, loved the flip. Motorola StarTAC was great too.

The buttons aren't, the plastic cover cracked on mine
:-(

all joking aside these old phone had a mutch better signal then modern smartphones

Mine was this. Motorola Timeport. Got it when I started work. I remember trying to test it at home by calling the home
landline next to me and pointing the phone to the landline. doh.

I had one of those :¬}

My first was an S6!....

Nope, not a Galaxy s6, but a Siemens s6! My brother gave it too me, not sure out of kindness or hate though :stuck_out_tongue:

same here. i think i actually wore it's carry case on my belt. like a cock.

I had a 3510i with midi ringtones. Cool.

My first mobile phone was a Phillips Savvy. Awful thing that was more like a calculator. Could fit one line of text on the screen at the time :neutral_face:

Nokia 1100 is the best every phone highest seller as well. I still use to this day. Unbreakable

& your comment literally compelled me to re-watch this song;

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qSkaAwKMD4

:smiley:

had all of these

nearly wept when the e71 came out

it took it to the next level

I've literally just watched that whole sequence :confused:

refurbished?? not brand new?! cold!

Wow that was satisfying

3310 speaks GSM, not CDMA

Some countries are planning it. Won't happen here for a very long time (most calls are still routed via the 2G network)

Feedback is dodgy at best.

Did I hear they plan to switch off the 2G signal? Seems stupid as I'm sure that's what I'm on sometimes.

​I would guess everyone in the UK with a mobile?

My Dad is still using his

Still got mine! Virgin Mobile branded

"Refurbished" they probably put it through the washing machine and it came out like new

Now I do feel old...that was like my fifth mobile.....

This was genuinely the same as my first.

£50 upfront then £25pm on BT Cellnet with no mins included (phones didn't do txt back then)

Yes my Mum. I have not been able to find a phone designed for the oldies that is anything other than 2g.

Oh I stand corrected. Cheers. I thought a 3G/4G SIM still wouldn't work even on the 2G signal.

Heat!!!!!

One for the hipsters no doubt.

Classic phone, a true great. But in 2016 it is s**t.

I actually quite like this phone but I agree with you on the 7110. 7110 was the phone I've enjoyed more than any other, great scroll wheel for web browsing. Trium Eclipse was cool with its huge colour screen back in the day when phone's didn't have screens that big and when in a chat room would display smilies just like on a desktop, I think that was around 2004 I had one of those bought for £30 in clearence at Carphone Warehouse. Star-tac was great too all the way back in 1998! But my first phone was a Motorola Flip in 1993. Whenever it rang people would stare because hardly anyone had a mobile back then. I can remember being terribly embarrassed when it rang just as I was being served at a busy supermarket till and everyone in the que was staring at me!

Any modern SIM will work in it, as long as it isn't a Three or iD SIM .

Got mine in 2004 for £300

3210 all the way although my first upgrade was for the 3310 from the 3210.... oh how things have changed

So back in the day my best phone of all time as shown above was the 6310i. One of the 1st to have Bluetooth. Also I had a cradle in the car where the car had an aerial on the back window to boost the reception. It worked brilliantly. Remember being on the phone in the car hands free all the way from London M25 to Manchester without a single dropped call. Also, when I first got it I charged it up fully and then went on holiday for 2 weeks to Spain (but forgot to take the charger) and it was still on when I got back home, despite being on standby for 2 weeks!!! Try doing that with today's smartphones. Dropped lots of times, replaceable batteries and colouful facias galore on every highstreet. Those were the days.

not with 4G lol or 3G!

Prepare for a visit from the hukd grammar police :smirk:

They work fine, one of my staff uses one as his main phone and a galaxy S3 just for music, not an hipster or older generation either but a tech savvy 17 year old, reckons its the only phone he can put his sim card in on any network at home and get a useable signal.

This almost bulletproof handset holds more charge than our world leaders.

Ordered just for lol's

Thanks OP, gonna rock that ringtone innit.

Great nostalgia but totally pointless. Anyone got a working 2G sim :smiley: ?

Not brought anything though yet

Ive started using Ali express is it safe?

Think there was also a 3330 as well that looked same as 3310

This was my 1st phone

Yes it will. It works on digital 2G.

Have iPhones got out of being stylish, trendy and hipster already?

Loved my 3210.

Poor Nokia. Hope the Finns bounce back.

I doubt these have 5.5MB internal memory. Probably more like 55KB.

Horrible brick. 8890 and 7110 had style!

What analogue signal? These are GSM, which still works fine.

Space Impact was awesome!

Will not work because the analogue signal was switched off ages ago

Correct Mat, best ever phone on the planet.......in my little World anyway!

I did love my 3310, but nothing could of beaten to shape and style of this bad boy.

A good weapon if you're being mugged? Throw it at them!

Need to be wary of dodgy Chinese firmware with malware hidden within. I wouldn't advise installing your banking apps.

Ha. This was my first ever mobile phone. Back in year 7! Space impact, what a game.

6310i unbeatable :wink:

get with the times man.

will this work with 02 4g network bands?

Cue everyone who sold theirs to Mazuma 5 years ago for £1 buying them back at 9x the price...

Only 250 contacts .. I'd have to lose all those numbers i dont really need. oh wait ..

but only 5.5mb internal memory lol

We should all buy one and go to a Microsoft event with it lol

they have stopped doing this phones like, 8years ago? and this is a Refurbished....uauau

nostalgic yes. want one? NO

Might have to get one just for Snake......

and programming in 'The Simpsons' ringtone again for old times sake.

Loved my 3310!
