The new Nokia 3310 is a brilliant little feature phone that revives many of the best traits of the iconic original device. However, there is one incredibly important feature that will be missing from the redesigned Nokia 3310 and reports says it’s not going to rectified ahead of the UK release date.
The new Nokia 3310 was one of the biggest surprises from the Mobile World Congress tradeshow this year.
Nokia’s revived classic is a charming little €49 device that brings back many of the best features from the original Nokia 3310, which was released some 17 years ago, and went on to become one of the biggest-selling devices for the Finnish technology company.
Nokia has made a number of changes to the new Nokia 3310 to bring it up-to-date with rival devices, including the addition of a 2MP rear camera, Bluetooth connectivity, and an overhauled Snake game.
However, HMD Global (the technology company that now sells smartphones under the Nokia brand) missed the opportunity to include one of the most important popular features of a modern phone – WhatsApp.
The 2017 edition of the Nokia 3310 does ship with access to Twitter, as well as email, but does not allow users to use WhatsApp – the world’s most popular messaging application.
The iconic phone rugged build quality as well as the month-long standby battery life makes the Nokia 3310 a perfect secondary device, for situation when you likely don't want to be carrying around a smartphone – like a festival.
However the fact that Nokia 3310 owners are unable to jump into their usual group conversations, and send messages to friends abroad without incurring the usual international rates, could be a real sticking point for some nostalgic customers.
