BFD: Nokia 8210

8210 one of the oldest models, that was launched in the year 1999. Worth calling the “Light-Weight” Models of the Nokia Family. Very easy to carry and to handle too. The phone was initially designed for Asian markets. Designed with six variants,  a deep blue background in the display, is one of the most “Easy-to-Learn” phone. Being the model from Nokia family of the early stages its appreciable for the features it can offer.

The phone has metallic alphanumeric keypad, which brings about a feather-like feel on every touch of the keypad. The two shortcut keys on either side of the display helps user to connect and disconnect calls.

The phone can store a maximum of 250 names in the contacts details, apart from what the SIM offers. The phone has a speed dialing feature with which, the user can assign names to the numbers on the keypad and helps easy dial.

Messaging is one of the best features the phone offers and adding to it is the keypad. Infrared feature available on the phone facilitates communication with PC / other mobile device and printer. I still remember transferring contacts between my 8210 and 8250. And since then we have come to the age of the iPhone … Wow what progress.
