Nokia Teases Possible Launch of Another Classic Feature Phone, Hinting at Potential Popular Model
Nokia phones aren’t going anywhere, HMD Group recently confirmed after rumors swirled that the brand was killing off the popular line to work on its own phones. However, the new updates suggest that HMD will not only make Nokia phones but also bring back some popular Nokia feature phones in a new avatar.
HMD’s new teaser hints at the release of the Nokia 3210 feature phone, but possibly with updated hardware and a new platform to power the device. But how can we be so sure that it is the Nokia 3210 that HMD wants to launch? The teaser clearly reads It’s my birthday, which the popular feature phone celebrated on March 18, 25 years since its debut in 1999.

HMD hasn’t told us exactly when the new feature phone could launch, but during MWC 2024 many products were confirmed to launch in May, so it’s possible that the Nokia 3210 could share the same launch date.
The company has used the Nokia connection to launch other popular phones in the past. We have seen the brand relaunch the Nokia 3310, 8210 4G and Nokia 5710 in the last few years. Of these, the Nokia 3310 received a lot of attention, especially when the iconic Nokia ringtone came to the fore.
Could HMD get a similar response for the Nokia 3210, which could include the Snake game and the balloon game again? We can’t wait to see which new Nokia phones could get a new lease of life.
