This phone sold extremely well, being one of the most successful phones ever, with over 100 million pieces sold [citation needed]. It is still being sold today on "budget" prepaid packages. Several variants of the 3310 have been released, including the Nokia 3315, 3330, 3350, 3390 and 3395.

[edit] Design
The 3310 is a compact, but somewhat heavy (133 g) phone featuring an 84 x 48 monochrome display. It is a slightly rounded rectangular unit that is typically held in the palm of a hand, with the buttons operated with the thumb. The blue button is the main button for selecting options, with "C" button as a "back" or "undo" button. Up and down buttons are used for navigation purposes. The on/off/profile button is a stiff black button located on the top of the phone.
[edit] Features
The 3310 is known for having many features built in. These include many utilities, such as a calculator, stop watch and a reminder function. It has four games, 'Snake II', 'Pairs II', 'Space Impact', and 'Bantumi'. It was popular for SMS because it allowed long messages three times the size of a standard SMS. The phone also has voice dialing for the quick dialing of selected numbers.
[edit] Customisation
The Nokia 3310 can be customised with interchangeable covers, and thousands of different designs have been produced by various companies. It also has over 35 ringtones built in with space for seven custom tones. These can either be downloaded, or can be composed by the user using the tone composer. The phone has different "profiles" which can adjust the phone to different sets of preferences. For example, there is silent mode where the phone will not ring when inappropriate to do so. Screensavers can be made from received picture messages. It has the option to set a reminder message that displays when it is turned on.It also came with Predictive text messaging,Voice activated dialling,
[edit] Variants
The Asian version of the 3310 is the Nokia 3315 which has some additional features:
- A picture editor to edit pictures for use in SMS messages
- Timed profiles
- Could use received ring tones as SMS tones
- Fixed some of the bugs found in the 3310
- Automatic keypad locking after specified time
The Nokia 3330 was basically a 3310 with WAP capability and an extra game named 'Bumper'. An Asia-only version known as the Nokia 3350 was in essence a 3315 with WAP and a 96x64-pixel screen.
There are two North American variants of the 3310; one is the Nokia 3390, which operates on GSM 1900. The Nokia 3395 is an updated version of the 3390 which includes the additional features of the Asian 3315 model.
Most versions of the 3310 could be upgraded to include the additional features of the 3315 by using a data cable.
[edit] Modding
Old Nokia 3310s (which are often available for a small fraction of their original price) are frequently sought out by hobbyists for their screens. These are graphical LCDs with a resolution of 84x48, and include a Philips PCD8544 controller which is easily controlled using an SPI bus.
