Nokia 3310 deals and reviews

What the critics say (scores are out of 100)

80	Expert Reviews | Nathan Spendelow Nokia's 3310 isn't a smartphone - more a 2017 re-do if anything. With a rear camera and a display you can actually read in sunlight, along with that joyous asking price, Nokia's 3310 is a wonderfully affordable nostalgia trip that's well worth the ticket.

75	ZDNet | Sandra Vogel The Nokia 3310 does the basics well enough. But there is an elephant in the room, and that's the price. Read full review
70	Gadgets Now | Avani Bagga If you need a secondary backup phone or want something that'll always make you feel nostalgic, go for the 'new' Nokia 3310. It also makes a good buy for someone who isn't comfortable using a smartphone. Read full review
70	Digital Spy | Shyvonne Thomas The new Nokia 3310 isn't a phone to win your head, but it can certainly do strange things to your heart. It's the price of a decent powerbank and is a strong option to offer similar support services when your big and expensive phone inevitably decides to desert you. Read full review
60	Techweez | Kenn Abuya Can I buy it? For my dad, sure, but not for me, or any other young person I know. Only if you can be fully productive with a feature phone should you consider getting this puppy, which, quite truthfully, is not the case for a lot of people. Read full review
60	Firstpost | Aditya Madanapalle Now the main thing the phone is selling is nostalgia. Even for a feature phone, it does not offer what you can expect at that price range. If nostalgia is what you want, you are better off getting the real thing. Read full review
60	Recombu | Chris Barraclough Should you buy the Nokia 3310, for a bit of retro fun and nostalgic joy? Well, that depends if you've got £50 sat in your pocket and nothing better to do with it. Still, that cute factor alone wins it a three-star score, because anyone who buys it will do so simply to own a slice of history. Read full review
60	PC Mag | Thomas Newton The new Nokia 3310 is a fun, if basic, mobile best suited as a back up for festivals, trips and holidays where your more expensive primary phone might easily get lost, damaged or stolen. Read full review
60	Forbes | Ewan Spence It's not suitable for every occasion (no phone is) but when the time is right, it's waiting for your call. For those who want 'just a phone' there's a good argument for a phone like the Nokia 3310. Read full review
60	Gizmodo UK | Tom Pritchard The new 3310 is an average and uninteresting phone with a name that invokes nostalgia. That's it. If you need a low-tech phone for one reason or another, nobody's going to stop you. Just bear in mind that you're not obligated to buy this. Go ahead and get something cheaper, because chances are you won't notice the difference. Read full review
60	NDTV Gadgets | Sanket Vijayasarathy The new Nokia 3310 essentially has three things to offer - its looks, battery life, and Snake. But this isn't the most affordable device you can get with those features. In fact, a lot of entry-level smartphones can now be found in this price range, and in a world where WhatsApp is seen as a necessity, it simply doesn't have what a lot of buyers need.

60	Pocket-lint | Cam Bunton We enjoyed unplugging for a few days and only being able to call and text a select few people, but it's not a perfect phone. Read full review
60	Wired UK | Jeremy White That said, if we are to mark this against other dumb phones, this is priced very high and doesn't even have top specs in category. One can even bag a full Android smartphone for this amount of cash. Read full review
60	The Guardian | Samuel Gibbs It's a basic phone with basic features in a novelty, nostalgic shell. If you really want a dumbphone for the odd occasion, and don't mind paying over the odds for one, buy it. But if you're looking for an emergency phone, or something disposable, Nokia makes loads of much cheaper versions of the same idea. They're just not branded 3310. Read full review
50	news.com.au | Matthew Dunn Having spent seven days with the Nokia 3310, I can safely say I will never regress back to an outdated technology ever again. The new Nokia 3310 3G with the old year 2000 3310 and the Nokia 1100 would all be better left in the past. Read full review
50	International Business Times | Alistair Charlton As an updated pastiche of the original there is plenty to like about the new 3310. But don't be fooled; this may be a phone named to tugged at your heartstrings, but ultimately it was designed to be cheap, simple and to survive a festival. Read full review
50	phoneArena | Damian M. There is nothing of its 17-year-old predecessor left in this device. The sales are completely due to marketing and nostalgia, in our opinion. If you want a solid feature phone, HMD Global has produced far better options in the same price range. Read full review
40	Trusted Reviews | Max Parker Avoid the hype – this is nostalgia exploited in the worst way possible. Read full review
40	Alphr | Alan Martin It may seem harsh to be comparing the Nokia 3310 – a deliberate throwback to 17 years ago – to the phones of 2017, but there's good reason to do so. And it's simply because most people will find this phone a chore to use once they've completed a few rounds of Snake. Read full review
40	TechRadar | James Peckham The Nokia 3310 is a nostalgia-fueled re-release that can't do anything as well as a smartphone can, but for a low price this may suit you as a second device to take to festivals or keep in your bag for emergencies. Read full review
40	Stuff | Tom Morgan This ain't no smartphone - the battery life champ is as dumb as it gets. Rose-tinted nostalgia can't disguise the 3310 for what it really is - a basic burner phone that's good for nothing but battery life. Read full review
