The Nokia 3220 Is A Nightclub For Your Pocket... With Light-Up Ringtones
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- Everyone personalized their Nokia phone and Nokia leaned into that hard. The Nokia 3220b might have been the height of personalized phones right out of the box. Sure it had the usual Xpress-On covers, but it also had a full library of MIDI ringtones with flashing lights and vibrate to accompany them. The games took advantage of a built-in tilt sensor, it had a VGA camera that could record video, there was an NFC cover for mobile payments. This phone could do almost everything modern phones do, just not very well. If there's one thing it does well, it would be bringing the party where-ever you are.

Hard to believe that this thing is 20 years old
Back in 2006 when I had it.
Mine was able to play mp3 files. I loved how people were very impressed watching it play the file with the lights synchronized.
I think the firmware version was V5.50. Also, I saw one with V6.xx (I don't remember the full version) with custom icons.
Yes I remember being able to set up my own ringtone with my mp3 files.
I had this phone (for a short while before I fell in a river with it in my pocket). Thanks for opening Club Pinball, totally forgot about that!
One of my fondest memories was finding out it shot video. We used to mess around, pausing the video and then moving out of the way to make it look like you disappeared.
I got pushed into a pool back in 2006! Great freaking times RIP memories
Wow, makes you miss that signature Nokia ringtone.
I love the blinking lights
I had one of these. Super fun, everyone I knew loved it for the lights. I had the Bluetooth adapter for it, too, on top of the message cover. It also came with 5 inserts and the “make your own” insert.
The browser was garbage.
I wish it had wi-fi so I could relive the pain!
@@TechThrowback Request ada memory card
How is it I never heard of this model? Wicked cool for 18 years ago...and almost cool now. Add those features to a current phone...interesting. lol
Enjoying the Tech Throwback channel!
How come you haven't? 😮 Where are you from?
I had this! Totally forgot all about it, what a throwback.
I completely forgot the keypads were removable back then 😂
Phones are so lame now. I want this thing.
That was a great phone. The light show was cool, like once, maybe twice. I can imagine how cringeworthy this would have been if I was standing next to a stranger in an elevator with one of these. A nice look at a very brief time when GSM was finally coming into it's own in the US.
hey JR thanks for shouting this channel out on your main in your last video! love your car content and am also really into retro tech stuff so this is great. keep up the great vids :-)
You forgot the best part of this phone, there was another backplate that had LEDS in it where you type out messages and wave the phone back and forth in the air to display it.
I mentioned that! 🍻
My buddy had one of these back then... The ladies loved the lights.
I had the Nokia 3220 in black which I guess was the European version and I loved it. I was 14 years old when I had this phone, and I remember creating my own designs for the back XpressCover thing. I also remember playing a lot of games on it too such as a 2D version Splinter Cell. Of course, I chose this phone for the lights.
Man they should make a new version of this for kids because it would probably sell well
My first used Digital camera I probably picked up in the early 90s was vga resolution maximum and had the memory built in, no memory card. It was so cool back then but such a limited POS now. I later found the next version that included a memory card and 800x600 resolution. I have a Canon T3 DSLR now that still works great now and a bunch of lenses for it and have several Canon film SLR cameras. My phone now has the same resolution my T3 does and can record 4khdr video in stereo.
Woah, I never have seen this phone. My first phone was nokia was a 5110.. I remember having it on the dash of my car with the windows down, took a hard turn, and it went flying out the window. Stopped. Grabbed it off the street and it worked just fine, just a little dinged.
I didn't get to own one of these, but I was able to borrow one from friends, and aside from playing games, I was using it mostly to play sounds and amaze myself with those lights lol
I found one in 2007. Waited for a long til someone request the prpopertie but nobody came. Waited for someone calling but nobody called. I had a lot of fun with this one.
I was an early digital photo adopter also. I had a Ricoh RDC-300 that took those vga 640x480 grainy mosaic pictures. When this stuff hit phones it was a game changer.
Excellent video. I very much enjoyed the in-depth review and how this model surprisingly had a special NFC cover!
I doubt the NFC cover was popular or utilized much other than as a gimmick (NFC payments were not utilized in N.A. yet) but still groundbreaking for 2004.
The 3220 never supported tap to pay or NFC payment features. Most of them only supported reading of NFC tags. However, there we places that allowed you to use NFC for things like transit passes or badge access. The phone + NFC cover could read the NFC from the transit pass or card and store it for use with a special app. Sadly, in North America, I don't think NFC was used for anything besides simply reading tags back then.
I still have this
I had that phone back in 2004 lol
i have one of those too they were hella cool and sufficent advanced for their time
c'mon no Electric Eel? dat'z tha best one of them all
I completely forgot about this thing! Good find on this one.
In 2004 I had a Nokia 3310.
I had 2 of these growing up 1st one got stolen on my birthday 2nd one got washed
I had that phone… I wish I still had all my old phones. I had many many many T-Mobile phones. Abused the upgrade program. Every time a new phone came out I traded in my and replaced it. Haha
I think some people use those phones to take pics for Marketplace. Thankfully does not take forever anymore to type and send a text. I have been using mobile phones since they were pay by the minute. I am not sure what phone I was using at that time. I still have some of my old Nokias though.
Nokia ❤❤❤❤
Where i can find that belt clip? If its still available.. 😁
I wish my iPhone could do that.
I miss physical keyboards so much, I used to rip on those and now it takes forever to get it right
I had one of theses phones in the UK I loved it, rave in my pocket
Love this, I didn’t have this model I forgot what one I had but it lit up white and was so awesome lol
No belf... selfie gamera?
👋🏼*clears throat* Rally Fighter please lol 😆
If I could unlock 3220b that would be great 😅
I had one and still have it wish it made it to 4g
That was my second cell phone and it was an awesome phone.
why did phones get rid of the notification light that blinked when you had a message
My Android phone still has it.
I like the channel. But is the music needed in the background?
I had to use a special cable to transfer files to the PC
Hello @datadrivendev Can you please elaborate how you did that? What was the special cable you used to transfer files to the PC? Looking forward to a reply! Thank you!
@@kous7av The 3220 does not support USB, there a special cable that allows USB connectivity
I had one I had a red cover
Not gonna lie 🙏....this is amazing 🚧
i found one of these in an ewaste bin and i couldnt reach it, i was so sad afterwards
Great to See you here on this side of Tech JR... Have you thought of using old 'high end' phone for gaming?
I miss phones like this. I wish you could do a video showing the im screen. Didn’t it have aol instant messenger on this one. I use to love having aim in my pocket to message friends at school who had it too or stayed home playing hookie lol.
Most of it won't load at all without internet 😢
i have 1 and use it... inspite have a huawei mate 40 pro porsche design... go up in the mountains full signal..
Neat phone.
Hey can you tell me where i can get the power cord for this phone? Please get back to me asap
Yo Dawg we heard you like RGB?
More like to dawg you like RG. Because the B Leds were still pretty expensive and Sony had the patent.
So we put RGB inside your RGB so you can RGB while you RGB! 🚥
Better than nothing phone...👍
The vibration is super loud
Yeah no wonder, it's a heavy, solid phone with a vibration strong enough to make it move across the table.
Nothing phone of the past
Hey
Income tax department police station

Hey Ross,

No more sausage parties
Used to have this phone when I was a kid, I had a photo of Stacy Keibler on the back. I just bought one on eBay for £10, looks brand new. Gonna downgrade and only use my smartphone during the weekend.
