It’s been a long time since I’ve blogged about the Nokia of old. And yet, it seems, there are still Nokia fans out there among us.

I found this testament to Espoo’s design mettle on Imgur, an image and gif-sharing site. It’s interesting that the 3650 is the first phone illustrated; despite the kooky rotary-style keypad I wanted one of these things bad. I might be mistaken, but I think it was one of the only Symbian-powered handsets to also feature Nokia’s famous Xpress-on removable front and back covers.

There are lots of other designs to reminisce about in this fond look back at a wonderful time when smartphones didn’t all look the same. Enjoy!
