The [Nokia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokia-3210) [6310](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokia-phones) cellphone has been re-released by the technology brand with a design that maintains some of the best features of today in a device that harkens back to a simpler time.

The cellphone has been announced to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the original model of the wildly popular device and is paired with a zoomed-in display for easier viewing. The device has FM radio functionality along with a battery that's rated to last for up to a week, which puts the vast majority of smartphones on the market today to shame.

The Nokia 6310 cellphone will come in black, dark green and yellow color options, and is even outfitted with the [classic Snake game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pippo) for users to partake in.
