Nokia is bringing back one of its classic phones — the Nokia 6310. The feature phone, known for its sturdy build and durable battery, was first launched in March 2001. That means it has been 20 years since the phone was launched.

According to Nokia, the re-launch this year was purposely orchestrated to coincide with the 20th anniversary since it first launched. This new model features a 2.8-inch display against a 1.8-inch screen on the original model. It is powered by a UNISOC 6531F processor and has 8MB of RAM and 16MB of storage.  it runs the Series 30+ (S30+) operating system. It also comes with bigger icons and there is also an accessibility mode that even further simplifies the menu.

The phone has a single 0.3MP camera on the back along with an LED flash. There is a MicroSD card slot and users will be able to add up to 32GB of additional storage. It has Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi, dual SIM support, and FM radio (wired and wireless dual-mode).

The 1150mAh battery capacity is just a tad bigger than that of the 2001 model but Nokia claims it will provide more than 7 hours of talk time and will last weeks in standby mode. The battery is removable and Nokia ships the phone with a charger and micro USB cable.

The Nokia 6310 Anniversary edition will be sold in the UK for £59.99 (USD $82). The device will be available in different colors. There is no word yet on when it will be available in other markets.
