Nokia 5210: The Outdoor Classic
Quick View💎 Rarity Index: C (Common)
⭐ WOW Factor: The only Nokia phone with an orange backlight for a monochrome display.

📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia 5210 is Nokia’s definitive rugged classic, a phone built for tough conditions at a time when most handsets were still fragile and business-focused. Announced in late 2001 and released in early 2002, it combined dust, shock and water resistance with Nokia’s familiar Series 20 interface, delivering a device that could survive real-world abuse without sacrificing everyday usability.This full box blue unit showcases the 5210 exactly as it was originally sold, complete with its distinctive rubber Xpress-On shells. The blue housing with silver and black accents gives the phone a sporty, technical look, while the rubber exterior provides added grip and physical protection. Unlike typical monochrome Nokias of its era, the 5210 uses an orange backlight, making it instantly recognizable and giving it a unique visual identity in low light.
Technically, the 5210 offers more than just toughness. It features WAP over CSD, a built-in infrared interface for data transfer to compatible devices, and support for Nokia’s PC tools, allowing phonebook editing and SMS handling directly from a computer. The Series 20 software platform provides a full set of calling features, including last number redial, speed dial, conference calling, call waiting, hold, mute, transfer and end all calls, alongside productivity tools such as a calculator, countdown timer, stopwatch, thermometer and calendar.
One of the most unusual features of the 5210 is its built-in thermometer, which reads the internal temperature of the phone’s battery. While primarily a technical and diagnostic function, Nokia exposed it as a user feature, adding to the phone’s adventurous, tool-like character. Preloaded with classic games like Snake II, Space Impact, Bantumi, Pairs II and Bumper, the 5210 balances rugged functionality with entertainment.
Because the 5210 was intended for rough use, most units were heavily worn or damaged over time. A full box example in blue, preserved in excellent condition, is now a rare find and a strong piece for any serious Nokia or rugged mobile collection. It represents a moment when Nokia successfully merged durability, personality and technology into one unmistakable device: the Nokia 5210, the Rugged Classic.

Nokia 6255i
Quick View💎 Rarity Index: B (Uncommon)
⭐ WOW Factor: A CDMA flip phone so far ahead of its time that it packed Bluetooth, MP3, FM radio, video recording, PTT, and MMC expansion into a single device – something no competitor came close to in 2005.
👁 Evaluation in my collection: New – 9.9/10
🕵 Nokia Codename: Dora
⏱ Life timer: 0m | 📦 Boxed: NO
📅 Release Year: 2005 | 💰 Release Price: ~350 $
📊 Units Sold: ~1M
📰 Why this phone matters: A beautifully preserved Nokia 6255i (RM-19) – one of the most technically ambitious CDMA flip phones ever released by Nokia. Manufactured in Brazil, this variant represents a rare production batch from a period when Nokia was aggressively pushing innovation into the CDMA market alongside Qualcomm.The 6255i stood out as an all-in-one multimedia device at a time when its competitors were still offering basic clamshells. It combined features that were nearly unheard of in CDMA handsets of 2004-2005: Bluetooth, MP3 playback, FM radio, MMC card expansion, video recording, Push-to-Talk, infrared, and Nokia’s iconic Pop-Port – all wrapped inside a compact, elegant flip design.
Its collector appeal lies not only in its hardware density, but also in the fact that clean, intact units from Brazil’s production run are becoming genuinely difficult to source. For Nokia enthusiasts, it represents the exact moment when the company tried to carry its Symbian-era multimedia DNA into the CDMA world – and succeeded more boldly than any other manufacturer.

Nokia 6750 Mural AT&T

👁 Evaluation in my collection: Good – 8.8/10
🕵 Nokia Codename: Grouper
⏱ Life timer: 43h | 📦 Boxed: YES
📅 Release Year: 2009 | 💰 Release Price: ~90 €
📊 Units Sold: ~300k
📰 Why this phone matters: Nokia has given U.S. carriers an interesting selection of cell phones over the past few months. We’ve seen quality music phones, quirky square models, and basic handsets just for making calls. The newest device to land on our desk, the Nokia Mural 6750 for AT&T, falls into yet another category. Slim, shiny, and armed with push-to-talk (PTT) and 3G, the Mural has a solid feel, thanks to its metal skin. Its performance was inconsistent, however, and it doesn’t offer anything that we haven’t seen before. The Mural costs $49.99 with a two-year contract and a $50 mail-in rebate.📝 Reviews when released: CNET 🔗

Nokia 7380
Quick View💎 Rarity Index: B (Uncommon)
👁 Evaluation in my collection: Great – 9.8/10
🕵 Nokia Codename: Paris
⏱ Life timer: 01m | 📦 Boxed: NO
📅 Release Year: 2005 | 💰 Release Price: ~500 €
📊 Units Sold: ~400k
📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia 7380 fashion phone was released in 2005, as part of the “L’Amour Collection”, along with the 7360, 7370, 7373 and 7390. The 7380 was designed at Nokia’s Design Center in California, led by Miki Mehandjiysky. What distinguishes this phone from others is its sensory navigation key which differs greatly from a conventional keypad and functions similarly to the touch-sensitive navigation wheel of the iPod. The display of the phone is another point if interest, measuring approximately 1.5 cm by 7 cm. The screen also becomes highly reflective in power saving mode, so it can double as a mirror.
The Nokia 7380 has a 2-megapixel camera, up to 52 MB built-in memory (non-expandable), FM radio and Bluetooth and sports Pop-Port connectivity.
The “L’Amour Collection” was awarded the 2006 IDEA Award (Silver) by the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA).📝 Reviews when released: Mobile Review 🔗

Nokia 7700 Prototype F5.0 Black | Unreleased
Quick View💎 Rarity Index: X (Mystical Prototype)
⭐ WOW Factor: The first Nokia unreleased phone with touch screen and Symbian S90
👁 Evaluation in my collection: Great – 9.5/10
🕵 Nokia Codename: MX
⏱ Life timer: N/A | 📦 Boxed: NO
📅 Release Year: 2003 | 💰 Release Price: N/A
📊 Units Produced: ~1k
📰 Why this phone matters: A true piece of Nokia history – the Nokia 7700 F5.0 Prototype, Type RAL-2, made in Finland and never released commercially. This is one of the most ambitious devices Nokia ever built: a full-touch “media communicator” years before the 7710 and long before modern smartphones adopted the concept.This listing includes two fully working prototypes, one in black and one in white, both belonging to the late engineering stage (F5.0) and carrying the internal Model: M designation. These units were intended for final validation and software testing, featuring the hardware configuration closest to what a retail 7700 would have been – had it reached the market.
The 7700 became legendary precisely because it never launched, making functional prototypes extremely rare. To find two, in different colours, in working condition, is virtually unheard of and places this set among the top-tier collector items of early smartphone history.
Whether displayed as design icons or preserved as engineering artifacts, these devices stand as one of Nokia’s boldest steps toward the touchscreen era.

Nokia 7700 Prototype F5.0 White | Unreleased

🕵 Nokia Codename: MX
⏱ Life timer: N/A | 📦 Boxed: NO
📅 Release Year: 2003 | 💰 Release Price: N/A
📊 Units Produced: ~1k
📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia 7700 (Model – M Type RAL-2) is a smartphone produced by Nokia, announced in October 2003 but never released. It was produced as a prototype unit between 2003-2004 It was expected to be the first smartphone running the Series 90 GUI on Symbian OS and Nokia’s first pen-based device, intending to compete against handsets like Sony Ericsson P800. At announcement Nokia dubbed it a “media device.” Compatible with GSM/HSCSD/GPRS/EDGE 900/1800/1900 MHz networks, the 7700 featured a wide, 3.5-inch touch-screen colour LCD with a resolution of 640 x 320 pixels which is the first smartphone with 2:1 aspect ratio and supporting 65,000 colours. It had 64 MB of internal memory and a MultiMedia Card (MMC) slot. It also included an integrated VGA camera with a maximum resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, an integrated FM radio, Bluetooth, USB and Nokia’s proprietary Pop-Port interface for connectivity purposes.The 7700 was to include a comprehensive application suite (such as a complete PIM suite, ‘full’ web browser, email client and an office suite comprising Word Processor, Spread-Sheet and a PowerPoint viewer) and supported Java MIDP 2.0 applications. It was also to be the first phone to support Visual Radio, and the first Nokia phone to support DVB-H mobile television with the addition of the Nokia Streamer SU-6 accessory. The Nokia 7700 was cancelled in mid-2004. Several theories for the cancellation were put forward at the time: Nokia was refocusing on ‘normal’ phones due to decreasing market share; the phone would be too late to market; and the phone was unattractive and bulky. It also featured ‘sidetalking’ like the N-Gage, a feature that had attracted a great deal of negative publicity. The Nokia 7710 followed shortly later with increased memory, a different design, no ‘sidetalking’ and other improvements. However, the 7700 was nevertheless used for further trials of DVB-H. As stated above, the Nokia 7700 was never released to the public. It was only released to Nokia’s R&D (Research and Development) groups. A few models, estimated 20, were distributed prior to Nokia’s decision to discontinue the model before full-on production. However as they were preparing to make the move into stores, the final product prototypes were available in every Nokia Dealer store for display and show-off, so an estimate on how many pieces there actually were is impossible to make, or how many remained in factories and services that were testing them. Pricing is thus very difficult to assess due to lack of official sales. Nevertheless, a few models were sold on eBay since Nokia’s announcement of discontinuation. The lack of independent data to verify the sale records on eBay has caused some to overestimate the actual cost of the model. The phone is nevertheless considered by a number of Nokia collectors to be a rare piece.

📰 Why this phone matters: Nokia 8148i is a variant of Nokia 8110 and it only works on GSM 1800.Nokia 8110 is a mobile phone released in 1996. It was announced on September 9, 1996 as the first of Nokia’s high-end 8000 series of phones.Its distinctive styling was the first example of a ‘slider’ form factor. A sliding cover protected the keypad when being carried in the pocket and extended downwards in use, bringing the microphone closer to the mouth.The action of opening the cover also answered an incoming call. The prominent curvature of the case, particularly when open, earned it the nickname “banana phone”. It was also the first Nokia phone with monochrome graphic LCD.
The phone was designed for the business market and was one of the smallest and lightest (152 grams) phones on the market, but still had better battery life than its predecessor Nokia 2110.
The improved 8110i model, announced in March 1997, was the first phone with the SSMS (Smart SMS) engine.The handsets could be updated OTA (Over The Air) with an intelligent menu structure, which allowed simple information input, input which was sent through a simple structured text message to an MT receiver. This station could interpret information and a structured text message back to the handset. Ring tone receiving by SMS was also part of the smart messaging protocol, so 8110i was also the first mobile phone to support it. Nokia later stopped marketing Smart messaging and concentrated on the upcoming WAP standard, but has not dropped smart messaging support from later phones. Both models were succeeded by Nokia 8810 in 1998.
The phone was famously featured in the science fiction action film The Matrix (1999), for which it was modified featuring spring-loaded mechanism (this later appeared on the Nokia 7110).📝 Reviews when released: N/A 💔
