HMD: The Nokia 3210 is for people who want to disconnect
According to HMD, the Nokia 3210 is a mobile phone that defined a generation and it is back after 25 years. It claims that “Dumbphones” are making a comeback as people look to return to simpler times. It added that HMD saw the sales of its Nokia 2660 Flip doubled in 2023 and it expects further feature phone market growth in 2024.
HMD’s CMO Lars Silberbauer said, “The Nokia 3210, a cultural icon, is back at the pinnacle of global dumbphone boom as consumers look to balance their screen time usage with a digital detox. The Nokia 3210 has simplicity at its core, allowing consumers to be totally present. Forget dumbphone, this is 2024’s fun phone.”
HMD says the new Nokia 3210 feeds into the increasing popularity and continued resurgence of feature phones as more youths are switching off and embracing the digital detox movement. It is a phone for people wanting to take a break from social media, the internet and endless apps, and enjoy life as it was in the late 90s or early 2000s.
