The devices include Nokia 6, which was earlier launched in China only, along with Nokia 5 and Nokia 3 smartphones. But what grabbed everyone’s attention is that the company also intends to re-launch Nokia 3310.



As per the report, we should expect to see a modern version of the 3310 which was primarily known for its plentiful battery life and nearly indestructible build. The phone is expected to cost as low as $60 which would be competitive enough to win over nostalgic former owners.
