Nokia 3310 certainly carries the nostalgic feel with it, and that’s what we somehow love the most. The phone which was also known among the youth in the early 2000’s as a ‘brick phone’ because of its strength and durability is now back in the ring, bringing back the good old memories.
Nokia 3310 is finally launched in India for Rs 3,310 but will it fulfills the expectations of demanding Indian Consumers.
PROS:

[3] The original Nokia 3310 had been tagged as a near-indestructible phone durable enough to survive countless drops. The new phone is expected to be similar in terms of durability and reliability.

[7] On the camera front, the new Nokia 3310 only sports a 2-megapixel camera with LED flash, so your photos will leave something to be desired.
