Return of the unbreakable phone

Remember the blue-gray Nokia 3310 phone? It went down in internet’s history books as an indestructible phone with many memes to celebrate it. Many old users remember playing the snake game on that phone. It was phased out in 2005, and the model seemed forgotten after the dawn of the age of smartphones. Nokia has now relaunched the Nokia 3310 - and people on social media are talking about it! The reboot retains the silhouette of the original but is slimmer and comes in more colours.

Many people came out on Twitter to welcome the iconic model back. Here are some of the reactions:

@1twimx6: “What do you mean #comeback Nokia 3310?

@saiprasadsunny5: “@nokiamobile a moment of silence for all the floors that are going to crack.”

@dominicneal79: “When Nokia 3310 is back and you’re still single. #2017isharsh”

@anjan_cr7: “Dad knows Nokia 3310 can’t be broken.

#Nokia3310 #Nokia”

The topic also seemed popular on Facebook:

Nana Kwame Osei Bonsu: “ Comparing the new NOKIA 3310 smart phone and the old one. I think I will go for the old one because of the snake game.”
