    You can't complain for $16 but the last "refurbished" phone I bought from AliExpress had

    • Spray painted case - immediately started scratching and peeling off
    • Scratches on display
    • Generic Chinese battery that was mysteriously lightweight and only lasted 15 min
    • Generic charger with wrong plug
    • Faults

      133g … these old phones were actually fairly light. I also had a Nokia 8210e from around this same vintage that was tiny and weighed only 79 grams, almost felt like a spy phone at the time.

      By comparison, an iPhone 6 weighs 172g and a Galaxy S7 is 152g.

          I gave you a plus vote because I don't think you deserve all the hate just for that. You made pretty fair points. As for the circlejerk though, I loved these old phones too! I had an 8250!! or 7250, or something like that. Light as a feather and it's backlight was blue. BLUE!

          Most of all I love the fact that "Has anyone got a Nokia charger I could borrow?" always got a response in the affirmative.

          I watched the guy I was crossing a carpark with drop his Nokia accidentally, then realise it and yell "stop!" at the car that was slowly passing behind us. A crack sound, the car jerked to a stop, and we saw it. UNDER the front tyre, holding the tyre off the road surface in fact.

          He successfully received a call on that phone some 5 minutes later.

        • ProjectZero on 10/06/2016 - 19:47

          @3 Hyenas: Sounds awesome… i can't really believe that though…. not even with this phone

        • Sick of This on 15/06/2016 - 12:47
          +1

          @ProjectZero: It definitely happened, right before my eyes. The driver heard him yell and jumped on the brakes (it was an undercroft carpark so the car was only going about 10kmh) and the car stopped RIGHT ON TOP of the phone. It was awesome, but he thought so slightly less than I did. The driver was a little apologetic, but it wasn't his fault at all.

          This was sometime in the early or mid 2000s. I don't recall exactly which model phone it was, but definitely a Nokia and of around the 3310's heyday. The screen had a big crack and didn't display anything, but the keypad still worked. And yes, it rang and he answered it some minutes later. The guy who called him took some convincing of the truth of this event too.

          If I was to make this up, I would have thrown in ninjas or supermodels or something.

      I agree, it is likely to be a fake remake of those popular phone, you'd be lucky to even get one single part in the phone that's genuinely Nokia (probably not the OS).

      Yep, its a useless meme phone now.

      I owned one when they were new (owned every flagship Nokia until the N97), they were good at the time but not any more.

      Its the equivalent of buying an old 32cm B&W CRT TV, sure you could probably rig something up to make it work but its pretty pointless unless your'e a hipster trying to show people how retro you are.
