Ericsson A1018s: Coca-Cola Edition The Golden Age of Brand Collaborations
Quick View💎 Rarity Index: A (Rare)
⭐ WOW Factor: Rare Coca-Cola promotional edition with officially designed Coca-Cola fascia
👁 Evaluation in my collection: BNIB – 10/10
⏱ Life timer: 0m | 📦 Boxed: YES
📅 Release Year: 2000 | 💰 Release Price: N/A
📊 Units Sold: ~2k
📰 Why this phone matters: Created during a unique moment when global brands began exploring mobile technology as a marketing medium, the Ericsson A1018s Coca-Cola Edition stands as one of the most iconic promotional phones ever released. Produced in Sweden at the start of the year 2000 and distributed exclusively through Coca-Cola campaigns, it was never sold in stores. Released exclusively through Coca-Cola Great Britain in partnership with the One-2-One network, this phone could not be purchased under any circumstances – instead, it required participants to collect 60 promotional Coca-Cola ring pulls or bottle tokens, attach them to an application sheet, fill out the official Coca-Cola Application Form in block capitals, and mail everything together with a £30 cheque or postal order before the 30 September 2000 cutoff. Approved applications received the phone by post along with a prepaid One-2-One SIM pack and accessories.This edition is instantly recognizable by its factory-issued Coca-Cola fascia – a chrome surface decorated with rising bubble motifs and the flowing “Enjoy” script, perfectly echoing Coca-Cola’s classic advertising themes of the late ’90s and early 2000s. Combined with the elegant black frame and Ericsson’s signature oval keys, the design merges the energy of Coca-Cola branding with the industrial clarity of Ericsson’s pre-Sony mobile philosophy. It retains all the authentic A1018s internals: removable fascia, SMS capability, ringtone composer, and the special Coca-Cola ringtone delivered as part of the official promotional batch.
The full box presentation elevates the rarity even further. The promotional kit includes Coca-Cola branded inserts, themed accessories, original battery, documentation, and the distinctive packaging style documented in collector archives. Preserved in BNIB condition, it maintains the exact look and feel it had the day it left the factory – a true artifact of the era.
More than a mobile device, this edition represents a collaboration between two global icons and one of the most memorable reward-based phone campaigns of the early GSM era. Today, the A1018s Coca-Cola Edition is widely regarded as one of the most desirable and visually unique special editions ever produced.

Ericsson ER207 (NTT DoCoMo): Ultra-Rare Japan-Only Release
Quick View💎 Rarity Index: S (Ultra Rare)
⭐ WOW Factor: The Ericsson ER207 is not just rare – it’s a portal into a hidden chapter of mobile history.
👁 Evaluation in my collection: Good – 9/10
⏱ Life timer: N/A | 📦 Boxed: NO
📅 Release Year: 1999 | 💰 Release Price: 200 €
📊 Units Sold: ~60k
📰 Why this phone matters: A remarkable and extremely rare Japan-exclusive Ericsson ER207, produced in August 1999 for NTT DoCoMo’s PDC network. This model was never sold internationally and represents Ericsson’s transitional era when the company tailored unique hardware specifically for the Japanese market – often completely different from their global product line.The ER207 embodies classic late-90s Japanese mobile design: compact, angular, antenna-based and featuring the distinctive “DIGITAL” logo across the display window. Unlike mainstream Ericsson models of the same era, the ER207 employed Japan’s proprietary PDC 800/1500 MHz system, resulting in a device architecture not compatible with GSM and making it fundamentally different from eur;opean Ericsson phones.
Unit is accompanied by original accessories, including the Japan-style hand strap, a collectible piece of its own that reflects the cultural design philosophy of late-90s Japanese phones, where personalization and wearable portability were key features.
This makes the device not just rare – but historically significant as part of the very limited Ericsson-DoCoMo collaboration portfolio.📝 Reviews when released: Ericssoners 🔗

🕵 Ericsson Codename: Curt
⏱ Life timer: N/A | 📦 Boxed: YES
📅 Release Year: 1992 | 💰 Release Price: ~300 €
📊 Units Sold: ~500k
📰 Why this phone matters: Ericsson’s new GSM digital pocket telephone, the GH172, has now received the ITA (Interim Type Approval) certificate from German authorities. The GH172 has passed all segments of the required testing, and was approved for the digital telephone standard in eur;ope, GSM. Deliveries of the product will begin in Germany in November, 1992. Ericsson’s first GSM phone was a re-engineered version of the similar looking, NH72. N refers to NMT, the old Nordic analogue network, G to GSM and H stands for hand portable/handset. The NH72 was developed from a larger brown and orange creation, Ericsson’s first hand portable, the HotLine Pocket. Nils Rylands, Head of Research at the Ericsson Mobile Telephone Laboratory and his team took a police radio and turned it into a mobile phone. The codename for this project was ‘Curt’. ‘Curt’ broke a long running Ericsson tradition.Up until then, all Ericsson mobile phone research projects had been given female names. The female naming returned for the GH172/NH72, which was called ‘Olivia’. The successor, a slightly updated version GH174, made in white buttons.

Ericsson R290
Quick View💎 Rarity Index: S (Ultra Rare)
⭐ WOW Factor: The most compact satellite phone
👁 Evaluation in my collection: New – 10/10
⏱ Life timer: N/A | 📦 Boxed: YES – SWAP
📅 Release Year: 1999 | 💰 Release Price: N/A
📊 Units Sold: ~120k
📰 Why this phone matters: The Ericsson R290 is a combined GSM and satellite phone using the Globalstar satellite network. The R290 was introduced in June 1999 and manufactured in the United Kingdom by Ericsson Mobile Communications.The Globalstar uses a foldable antenna that is the same length as the body of the telephone. The R290 comes in a blue and black case in a style similar to other Ericsson phones of its period. The case incorporates some Gore-Tex weatherproofing, similar to that used in the Ericsson R310s, although less extensive.
The R290 also has a built-in modem for data and fax communication at 9.6 kbit/s in GSM mode and 7.2 kbit/s in satellite mode.
Ericsson R290 Satellite 002.jpg
The R290 is somewhat larger than typical, pure GSM phones, measuring 162 mm (6.4 in) x 62 mm (2.4 in) x 39 mm (1.5 in) and weighing 350 g (12 oz) (with slim battery). The R290 has relatively brief battery life compared with typical, pure GSM phones of its generation.Because it uses a non-standard battery voltage, its charging connector is not one of the types commonly seen on other Ericsson handsets. The device was capable of detecting over-voltage from inappropriate charging equipment, and warning the user to disconnect the charger.
The R290 spanned the corporate change from Ericsson to Sony Ericsson (when many of Ericsson’s other phones were redesigned), being the only combined GSM and satellite phone in their range; it was not rebranded, however.
