  📰 Why this phone matters: The LG F3000 is a vaguely Porsche-looking cameraphone that not only emits some engine revs every time you flip it open, it actually honks at you when you receive a text message.

  📰 Why this phone matters: The LG KG920 is one of the most daring and visionary camera phones ever released – a 2006 flagship that pushed boundaries years ahead of its time. With its 5-megapixel Schneider-Kreuznach camera, true xenon flash, and twist-rotating body, it belonged to a tiny elite family of experimental devices like the Nokia 3250 and Nokia 5700, yet it went even further by transforming into a full horizontal digital camera in one smooth motion.

  This was not just a phone with a camera – it was a camera that happened to be a phone.

  The twist mechanism instantly reconfigured the device into a proper photography grip, something no mainstream device dared to replicate again. Combined with its premium build and Korea-exclusive engineering, the KG920 stood at the intersection of digital imaging and mobile design in a way that feels almost unbelievable today.

  Launched in 2006 at a premium price of roughly &eur;o;450-&eur;o;500, it was heavily reviewed and praised for producing some of the cleanest, sharpest images of its generation. Today it remains vastly underrated, overshadowed by later icons, yet historically more important – it reached the 5 MP milestone before many of the industry’s giants and showcased a design concept that has never been revisited.

  Your unit captures this legacy perfectly: a rare, twist-based camera phone from the golden era, preserved from a time when manufacturers dared to innovate radically.

  A hybrid of digital camera ambition and bold mechanical engineering – the LG KG920 is a striking, unforgettable piece of mobile history.

  Nokia 6108 Prototype B5.0: Early Engineering Sample in Pink

  💎 Rarity Index: S (Ultra Rare)

  ⭐ WOW Factor: Handwriting Recognition

  👁 Evaluation in my collection: Good – 9/10

  🕵 Nokia Codename: Libai

  ⏱ Life timer: 3 | 📦 Boxed: NO

  📅 Release Year: 2003 | 💰 Release Price: 200 €

  📊 Units Sold: ~300k (final units)

  ---

  📰 Why this phone matters: A striking Nokia 6108 Prototype B5.0, internal codename “LiBai”, built under Type RH-4 and marked with the unmistakable Model: XXYY placeholder – one of Nokia’s classic signatures for true pre-production devices. The PROTO B5.0 designation places this unit in the late engineering stage, where final hardware refinements, handwriting-input validation and UI stability testing were performed before the model was green-lit for production.

  The pink housing paired with this prototype label makes it highly distinctive: while certain pink variants were later released in select Asian markets, the internal markings on this unit – early production codes, non-consumer label structure, and the development codename printed directly on the shield – confirm it as part of Nokia’s controlled R&D chain rather than a retail batch.

  With its clean prototype identifiers, engineering-phase hardware and the unique “LiBai” project naming, this 6108 B5.0 proto stands as a rare and desirable example of Nokia’s experimental era, capturing the device exactly as it passed through the company’s internal development process.

  Nokia 6108: The First Handwriting Classic

  💎 Rarity Index: A (Rare)

  ⭐ WOW Factor: Handwriting Recognition

  👁 Evaluation in my collection: As New – 9.9/10

  🕵 Nokia Codename: Libai

  ⏱ Life timer: 0 | 📦 Boxed: YES

  📅 Release Year: 2003 | 💰 Release Price: 200 €

  📊 Units Sold: ~300k

  📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia 6108 is one of the most unusual and innovative mass-released Nokia phones, designed specifically for the Chinese market and built around a unique flip-down handwriting input system. Released in the early 2000s, it combined a traditional candybar keypad with a dedicated handwriting pad hidden beneath the keys. The included stylus, neatly stored on the back of the device, enabled users to write Chinese or English characters directly onto the phone, making the 6108 a remarkably advanced hybrid device for its era.

  This full box example is extremely rare. Most 6108 units were heavily used in China and Southeast Asia, where handwriting input was a daily necessity. As a result, surviving phones usually show significant wear and often lack the stylus, manuals, or original packaging. A complete, intact full box with all accessories is very hard to find today and greatly increases the collectible value of this model.

  With GPRS, MMS, email, Java applications, SyncML support, a two-way English/Chinese dictionary and speakerphone, the 6108 offered a feature set far beyond standard Series 40 devices of its time. Its IR port enabled early PC synchronization long before modern wireless standards became common.

  Internally known as LiBai, the 6108 reflects Nokias experimental phase, merging conventional keypad use with stylus-driven handwriting input long before capacitive touchscreens became mainstream. Its distribution was limited to Asia-Pacific markets, and because it was heavily used for educational, business and translation purposes, complete boxed units like this one are exceptionally hard to source.

  With its flip-down handwriting pad, integrated stylus, region-specific firmware and fully intact accessory set, this Nokia 6108 stands as a distinctive and rare piece of Nokia innovation, showcasing the company’s creative engineering during the early 2000s.

  Nokia 8587: Korea Exclusive CDMA Rarity (BNIB)

  💎 Rarity Index: A (Rare)

  ⭐ WOW Factor: A model using a battery and hardware ecosystem Nokia never used anywhere else

  👁 Evaluation in my collection: BNIB – 10/10

  ⏱ Life timer: 0 | 📦 Boxed: YES

  📅 Release Year: 2003 | 💰 Release Price: 350 €

  📊 Units Sold: ~200k

  ---

  📰 Why this phone matters: A truly unique Nokia released only for the South Korean market, the 8587 stands apart as one of the rarest and most unusual devices ever carrying the Nokia name. Built through a Korean ODM partnership, it blends classic Nokia software with Sanyo-style hardware, a proprietary domestic battery, and a design never used in any global Nokia model.

  This BNIB unit is a preserved time capsule from Nokia’s short-lived Korean CDMA experiment – a phone that looks Nokia on the outside but is unmistakably Korean-engineered inside. Closely related to models like the Nokia 8887, the 8587 represents a completely different branch of Nokia history, available only to local carriers and unseen outside Korea.

  A standout collectible for any serious Nokia or CDMA enthusiast.

  Highlights:

  Korea-exclusive model (RH-15)

  ODM-built with pseudo-Sanyo design and proprietary battery

  MIC-certified Korean domestic release (Dec 2003)

  Ultra-rare BNIB condition

  Part of Nokia’s experimental Korean CDMA lineup (e.g., 8587 / 8887)

  A true oddity: a Nokia that doesn’t follow Nokia’s global hardware standards

  Nokia 8800 Arte Classic Black

  💎 Rarity Index: B (Uncommon)

  👁 Evaluation in my collection: Great – 9/10

  🕵 Nokia Codename: Skira

  ⏱ Life timer: 21h | 📦 Boxed: NO

  📅 Release Year: 2008 | 💰 Release Price: ~1000 €

  📊 Units Sold: ~600k

  ---

  📰 Why this phone matters: Nokia describes the composition of the latest 8800 as a “unique synthesis of high quality glass and metal”, however, unique seems a misnomer considering how similar the Arte looks to its predecessor the Sirocco. That said, there’s definitely something alluring about the simple elegance of the Arte.

  The 8800 feels great to hold and to use. It’s noticeably heavier than other handsets, and while we’d often mark the extra heft as a bad point, the Arte has a pleasing weight; it feels solid and durable. The sliding mechanism is amongst the best we’ve used, and again gives the impression of a high quality build and of a level of craftsmanship absent from cheaper mass-produced models.
