Nokia 8587: Korea Exclusive CDMA Rarity (BNIB)
Quick View💎 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

📰 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
