Default Oh, She Meant Phones

My sister exclaimed that "they're getting the Nokias out again", it took my a while but the realization of the truth was disappointing.

Never had 3310, but had the follow up model the 3410. Followed by several other Nokia models in the same range,virtually bulletproof. I eventually changed to the Nokia lumia , windows touchscreen phone. These didn't last 5 minutes with me, even in a hard case,the screens cracked if dropped. Had 2 the same, both didn't last, got a third one,slightly upgraded, and it was trouble from day 1, took it back to the shop. Now use a HTC Desire 530.

Bit dated now I'd imagine compared to the competition
But absolutely indestructible back in the day
I had several Nokia phones including a 3310 and 3410
Nothing ever went wrong with them
Battery lasted ages too
Regards
Chris

When I recently went to work in London for the week and managed to forget my phone, I picked up a cheapy £9.99 pay as you go just to keep me in touch.

It was very similar to the old Nokia and I was getting into the retro vibe, until I had to send a text!

I had forgotten what a pain that used to be!

Press a button 3 times then wait
Press the next button 4 times then wait

Quicker to drive there and tell them lol

Our work issue mobiles are Nokia C2-01's. Fine for phone calls but suck at everything else.....maybe thats why they're work issue ones. Just realised..... Suppose it keeps me out of trouble.

I recently bought a Nokia 107 on payg, as a second phone,because one of the areas I work in,only picks up a signal from one network, and my main phone is tied into a 12 month contract on another network. As said battery lasts for ages.
