Nokia 3310 Gets 41-Megapixel PureView Camera & Windows Phone Makeover on April Fools' Day



Tanggal 1 April banyak kejutan April Mop atau April Fools termasuk salah satunya dari Nokia, salah satu produsen handphone legendaris yang sekarang dimiliki Microsoft. April Mop dari Nokia datang dari sebuah kicauan dari Twitter official Nokia yang menyebutkan tentang kelahiran kembali ponsel sejuta umat Nokia 3310 yang dilengkapi dengan kamera PureView 41 mega pixel dan sistem operasi Windows Phone.

Masih ingat dengan ponsel sejuta umat 3310 kan? tampilan sederhana layar hitam putih dengan keypad di bagian bawah, di Nokia 3310 versi baru terlihat tampilan klasik 3310 lama dengan layar berwarna dan tampilan grafis Windows Phone tanpa keypad fisik tapi berubah jadi touch screen. Untuk warna casing ponsel Nokia 3310 versi baru ini juga mengadopsi warna-warni ponsel Nokia Lumia. Untuk gmae klasik Snake 2 dan Space Impact masih ditemukan di ponsel 3310 baru ini.

Sayangnya berita di Twitter Nokia dan postingan di webnya hanya sebuah April Mop belaka... seandainya itu terwujud akan menjadikan kenangan baru dan nostalgia bagi para pemilik lama Nokia 3310.

NOKIA 3310 GETS 41-MEGAPIXEL, WINDOWS PHONE MAKEOVER

Heritage, much-loved and foolproof handset brought back from the ashes with powerful PureView imaging capabilities.


Initially released in the year 2000, the Nokia 3310 went on to be one of the most successful mobile phones ever. More than 125 million were sold and, thanks to a small group of Nokia fanatics, this cult handset is making a modern-day comeback. 

Staying near-true to the original design, the Nokia 3310 with PureView will add a 41MP PureView camera with Zeiss optics and Xenon flash, and will run a modified version of Windows Phone 8 to fit the unique ‘ClearDiamond’ three-inch touch screen. 

As well as the classic metallic dark blue, the Nokia 3310 with PureView will also come in yellow, blue, red and green. 

Three ‘soft-touch’ navigation keys still feature a Windows Phone ‘home’ button has been introduced to you straight back to the Start Screen. 

LiveTiles and App Folders are supported and it comes pre-installed with MS Office, Xbox Games, Outlook and OneDrive that offers 7GB free cloud storage out of the box. 

Juha Alakarhu, Nokia head of Imaging Technologies, said: 
“I’m really excited that we’ve found a way to marry our innovative PureView technology with such a beloved device. With its durable design and iconic look, we think even more people will enjoy our signature PureView magic ” 

To power the next-gen operating system and class-leading camera, Nokia engineers have achieved the unthinkable, scaling down a dual-core processor, 2GB RAM and 32GB of on-board storage into a case that mimics the original size (113 x 48 x 22mm) and weight (133g). 

A side-mounted MicroSD card slot offers additional storage expansion. The first devices will rollout with 3G connectivity while LTE-equipped devices will follow later in the year. 

With a nostalgic nod to yesteryear, the Nokia 3310 with PureView comes pre-loaded with four games – Snake II, Pairs II, Space Impact and Bantumi -, a currency converter and original monophonic ringtones. 

Norman Gage, who has been campaigning for the return of the Nokia 3310 since its discontinuation, said: 
“It’s an historic day. For five years, we’ve worked hard to make our voice heard and now our dreams are about to become reality. Personally, I’d have preferred to keep the five-line, monochrome screen, six ringing-tone volume levels and original message templates, but you can’t win them all!”
