Tech-Heads Have Discovered The Nokia 3310 Has A Huge Design Flaw
But one crucial detail could mean it's not as fantastic as we thought - it won't work in much of the world.
While many parts of the phone have been updated, the new version still communicates with networks using old 2G frequencies, used before mobile Internet caught on.
However, 2G has already been turned off in many parts of the world, including Canada and the United States, and are on their way out in many other countries too.
So far, Canada, Australia, Singapore, Switzerland, Taiwan and the US have shut down most of their 2G networks or will do so soon.
If you're living in Europe and travelling to those countries, then the new 3310 won't work.
The issue is that the phone only supports GSM 900 MHz and 1800 MHz, which is primarily used in most parts of the world like Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia.
But North, Central and South America use 850 MHz and 1900 MHz - frequencies that the new Nokia won't be able to connect to.
