Nokia 8110 4 Yellow Mobile Phone

Product Information

It comes with a long-lasting battery, so you can talk all day 2, or leave the phone on standby for up to a month 3. On the primary camera, options for megapixel sizes, resolution adjustments, and focusing options affect the quality of your photos. Its 2MP sensor produces images that look just as poor as you’d expect: on outdoor shots, in particular, the contrast is bland and colours bleed into one another, and it can’t handle shadows or low light weather conditions at all. Riffing on the “banana phone” nickname, Nokia has also released a special Banana Yellow colour in addition to the standard Traditional Black. Nokia’s reloaded 8110 4G is the second release in its retro Nokia Originals series, the first being 2017’s Nokia 3310.

You can forget about HD: even if you turn the phone on its side and set the video mode to full-screen, the image is small and smeary.It feels absurdly small by modern standards, and it looks very cheap, with poor viewing angles, particularly beneath bright office lighting. Available in four vibrant shades, there’s a Nokia 3310 3G to suit everyone: Azure, Yellow, Warm Red, and Charcoal. What the re-released 8110 does have, however, is 4G network connectivity, dual SIM slots, and smartphone apps such as Google Assistant and Facebook – so now you really can access the Matrix from your Nokia mobile.

News from Dezeen Events Guide, a listings guide covering the leading design-related events taking place around the world. The Nokia 8110 4G’s single rear-facing camera takes me back to a time before selfies, when everyone’s profile pictures were taken in front of the mirror. Why would it be, with that highly usable keypad, where the keys fall easily under your fingers, keys which are nicely backlit so you can read them comfortably in any light?Its operating system has been updated to allow for app downloads and 4G coverage, but the design remained largely the same and features a similar appearance. Oftentimes the phone doesn’t appear to react when you press a button, so you’ll press it again; then it does respond, twice. Colourful unibody design with Carl Zeiss lens, PureView technology with Optical Image Stablisation, and a 4. Unexpectedly, you have to keep the keyboard cover open while you watch, as closing it shuts down the app – an easily forgotten, and very frustrating, quirk.

Last year Nokia re-released a favorite phone, the Nokia 3310, in a new design with better screen and battery life. And 3G and 4G connectivity means that unlike the Nokia 3310 revealed this time last year, the 8110 4G will work pretty much anywhere. Frankly, though, if you’re considering the Nokia 8110 4G, it’s probably for nostalgic reasons, in which case a modern rival isn’t going to do the job. And the design means there’s no worry about scratching the screen if you unwittingly place it face down on a gritty surface, say.

Other designers embracing the back-to-basic trend when it comes to mobile phones include Serbian studio Alter Ego Architects, which designed a concept for a 3D-printed phone with an interface that only features numbers and symbols.
