Nokia 3310 will be available to purchase in India starting today from offline stores, ending months of wait for nostalgic Nokia fans who want a walk down memory lane. The Nokia 3310 India launch was announced earlier this week, and the feature will come in four colour options - Warm Red and Yellow (both with a gloss finish), and Dark Blue and Grey (both with a matte finish). Priced at Rs. 3,310, the handset has features such as 2G Internet access, long battery life, familiar form factor, and a new version of the classic Snake game. It stole the limelight at the company's MWC 2017 launch event and received an overwhelmingly enthusiastic response at the event.
It sports a refreshed design, keeping the rounded edges and sturdy build iconic to the original 3310. The new curved screen window on the Nokia 3310 is designed for better "readability in sunlight." The phone also sports new push buttons and a new UI with similarities to the original.
