    📰 Why this phone matters: 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).

  • Nokia 8208: Dual-Slider Elite. The Rarest CDMA Flagship Nokia Ever Built

    💎 Rarity Index: S (Ultra Rare)

    ⭐ WOW Factor: Rare Nokia Dual-Slider CDMA Flagship (China-Exclusive, Short Production Run)

    👁 Evaluation in my collection: BNIB – 10/10

    ⏱ Life timer: 0 | 📦 Boxed: YES

    📅 Release Year: 2009 | 💰 Release Price: 300 €

    📊 Units Sold: ~200k


    📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia 8208 stands out as one of Nokia’s most distinctive high-end CDMA phones, created exclusively for the Chinese market in 2009. Built for China Telecom’s premium segment, it delivers a rare combination of power, design originality, and luxury-grade construction that places it among the most collectible CDMA-era Nokias ever made. This unit is preserved in factory-new condition, an exceptional find considering how few 8208 units escaped heavy carrier use. BNIB status significantly elevates its desirability and rarity for collectors.

    Its signature feature is the dual-slider design: slide up to reveal the keypad, slide down for dedicated multimedia controls – a layout rarely seen on a Nokia device. Combined with its solid feel, metal structural elements, sharp lines, and balanced weight, the 8208 feels like a deliberately crafted premium instrument rather than a typical feature phone.

    Production numbers were limited, and the model never officially reached markets outside China, making surviving units scarce worldwide – especially in top condition.

    👁 Evaluation in my collection: Good – 8/10

    🕵 Nokia Codename: Demi

    ⏱ Life timer: 240h | 📦 Boxed: NO

    📅 Release Year: 2003 | 💰 Release Price: ~650 $

    📊 Units Sold: ~300k


    📰 Why this phone matters: Nokia 8910 became very popular due to a high price, unusual opening and titan exterior. A revised model – Nokia 8910i is also rather successful. It differs from its predecessor in color of the phone (now it has only one black color) and availability of color screen. Like the other models from this phone line, a new display is capable to support only 4096 color. The other important difference is Java applications support.

    The phone measures 103 – 140.5 x 46 x 20 mm, it can be comfortably worn in the pockets or a hostel. The handset weighs 112 grams, what is a little bit heavier than the weight of the standard phone. On the other hand, titan exterior, which increases the phone’s weight, absorbs shocks and protects hardware. Scratches can’t be noticed on this phone even within the time; the color is not changed. To open the phone, press 2 side keys simultaneously and main part of the phone would be slid.

  • Nokia 9000iL Communicator: The Iconic Mobile Office

    💎 Rarity Index: S (Ultra Rare)

    ⭐ WOW Factor: Nokia 9000iL isn’t just a collector phone –
    it’s the U.S.-exclusive, upgraded version of the world’s first smartphone,
    manufactured in Finland and equipped with advanced Internet capabilities that didn’t exist on the original 9000.
    A true landmark device.

    ⏱ Life timer: N/A | 📦 Boxed: NO

    📅 Release Year: 1997 | 💰 Release Price: ~1500 $

    📊 Units Sold: ~150k


    📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia 9000iL Communicator is the rarest and most advanced version of the first-generation Communicator family. Released in 1997-1998 for the U.S. market only, it delivered true mobile computing capabilities years before any competitor. At a time when phones could barely handle SMS, the 9000iL could send email, browse early web pages, access corporate servers, send/receive faxes, and run productivity tools – all while doubling as a fully functional GSM phone.

    Powered by an Intel 486-class processor and running the GEOS-based Nokia Communicator OS, the 9000iL was essentially a miniature laptop disguised as a phone. Its iconic clamshell design with an external phone interface and a wide internal LCD display made it instantly recognizable – and a status symbol for professionals who needed real mobile data in the late 90s.

    Your unit, with its pristine RAB-4N label, Made in Finland stamp, and correct IMEI layout, is exactly the type of 9000iL that U.S. carriers imported in controlled quantities. It is a foundational piece of mobile history and a must-have for any serious Nokia collector.

  • Nokia E61i

    💎 Rarity Index: C (Common)

    👁 Evaluation in my collection: Great – 9/10

    ⏱ Life timer: 218h | 📦 Boxed: NO

    📅 Release Year: 2007 | 💰 Release Price: ~650 $

    📊 Units Sold: ~1.5M


    📰 Why this phone matters: The E61i is thinner than the E61 by a small margin but is 11 cc smaller. The E61i has a better build quality over the E61 and possesses a rather stable and solid body. The keyboard has definitely got a few updates – first, the navigation joystick is replaced with a D-pad, which is a great choice by the way. Then there are two new shortcut keys – the Phonebook and My Own key. The My Own key is a customizable shortcut key that you can use for starting an application of your choice. The keys of the QWERTY keyboard have gotten just a notch smaller, but the space between them has increased. Furthermore their tactile feedback is far better on E61i than on the E61. As a result the ergonomics of the QWERTY keyboard have greatly increased.
