Ruler is Back (nokia 3310)

                                            
The Nokia 3310 is a Nokia-branded mobile phone developed by HMD Global. It was announced on 26 February 2017 at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2017 in Barcelona, Spain, as a remake of the iconic original Nokia 3310 that was produced in the early 2000s.

ABOUT NOKIA:
Nokia used to be one of the world’s biggest mobile phone manufacturers but it fell behind with the advent of iPhone and Android smartphones. In 2014, Nokia’s Devices and Services division was sold to Microsoft. In 2016, Finnish company HMD Global bought a part of Microsoft’s feature phone business and has a licensing agreement that allows it to make smartphones under the Nokia brand.

Launch:

On 14 February 2017, it was reported that a modernised version of the 3310 would be unveiled at the 2017 Mobile World Congressin Barcelona by HMD Global Oy, a Finnish manufacturer with rights to market phones under the Nokia brand, with the price point of 59 euros.[1][2] On 26 February 2017, the modernised version of the 3310 was relaunched at a price of 49.[3]
The Nokia 3310 has been reported to only run on 2.5G networks at the time of launch, which has subjected the phone to criticism, and means that it will not initially be released in many countries, including Australia, which is switching its 2G mobile network off.

Features and design:

The phone features basic functions like an FM Radio, a web browser and a voice recorder. It has a 2MP camera for photos and video recording. The original Snake game has been replaced by Gameloft's "Snake Xenzia" with updated modes and graphics. The design of the phone heavily mimics its predecessor both in design and form factor and it comes in colors similar to the original phone: dark blue, gray, etc.
