The iconic Nokia handset from 1996 that launched at MWC in 2018 instantly became popular due to the slider model only after its appearance in the science fiction movie The Matrix in 1999.
A true fan of the 1999 movie The Matrix can remember the spring-loaded version of the slider used by Neo.
It’s time to revive the phase of the 90s as the classic Nokia 8110 phone is all set to make a comeback in 4G format while the new version will be launched at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
