Nowadays, you have the choice of only one prominent phone design: the 'patented' slate-like touch-screen smartphone. But ten years ago, Nokia mobile devices were diverse, innovative and in some cases downright strange in order to meet consumer demand.
Nokia 5210
Released in 2002, it was a major design twist up from the original Nokia 3210 and 3310/3330 devices that were commonplace among all early-adopter phone users.
