Nokia 8310
The 8310, like all handsets of the 8000 series, incorporated remarkably high specification compared to competing handsets at the time. Retailing at over £400, the 8310 was a truly premium handset. The inclusion of an FM Radio became a highly desirable feature, ensuring mainstream success especially among commuters and students. Indeed, Nokia inspired other manufacturers such as Sony Ericsson to incorporate this feature into their handsets. The 8310 managed to straddle the line between business handset and fashion statement; its small dimensions and attractive styling were cutting edge at time of release. Extensive talktime and standbytime, coupled with infrared and GPRS modem connectivity made it just as desirable for the business customer. At a time when colour screens were tapping into the mobile phone market, however, the 8310 was distinctly backward with its utilisation of a monochrome display.
