It’s true that smartphones aren’t much more expensive, even the new Nokia 1, but that doesn’t stop the new 8110 4G from being an alluring phone. It’s different and fun while offering some modern features like voice calls over LTE and Wi-Fi hotspot. Of course, the device isn’t going to set the market on fire but it’s still nice to a continuation of this original series. Long time Nokia fans will be tempted out of notstalgia, while others might legitimately find this a useful phone for festivals or for those who find a smartphone too overwhelming.

The new Nokia 3310 wasn't a one off. We now have the second installment in what HMD (the firm that produces Nokia branded smartphones) is calling the 'Nokia Originals' series.
