What's the best phone you’ve ever owned? The Samsung Galaxy S6? The original iPhone? The old school Nokia 3310? While these are all gems, they’re not the best-selling phone of all time. Enter the Nokia 1100.
Remember this guy?
This device sold more than 250 million units, that's more than any other phone in the world. The Nokia 11100 went on sale in 2003. It was an entry level handset that wasn’t feature heavy but did have a torch and a dust-proof case.
Nokia sold their one billionth phone in Nigeria in 2005. Can you guess what device that was?
That’s right; a Nokia 1100, two years after its initial release.
You may be expecting a killer feature that caused such high sales, but there wasn’t one. The phone had capacity to store 50 messages, 50 contacts and had 36 pre installed ringtones. Battery life boasted 400 hours standby time. It did has Snake, though, so that’s something.
