The 4G 3310 houses a new operating system that can run a number of basic Android apps, according to documents leaked from China.
Previous models have shipped with either 2G or 3G connectivity, but the new phone could use 4G to power stripped down versions of messaging apps like WhatsApp.
THE NOKIA 3310
- Thin, light and durable
- Measures 115.6 x 51.0 x 12.8mm
- Weighs 79.6 grams (2.8 oz)
- 22-hour talk time
- One month battery life
- 2.4 inch curved colour display
- 2 megapixel camera with LED flash
- Four colour options: Red, yellow, dark blue and grey
- 2G, 3G and soon 4G connectivity
- Bluetooth, micro USB, and headphone jack connections
- MicroSD card support up to 32GB
- Revamped version of Snake comes pre-installed
Standard 4G is around five to seven times faster than 3G, offering theoretical speeds of up to 150Mbps.
For instance, you can download a 2GB HD film in 3 minutes 20 seconds on a standard 4G mobile network, while it would take over 25 minutes on a standard 3G network.
The new phone recently passed through the TENAA, the Chinese regulatory body for telecommunication devices, Nokiamob reports.
Documents uncovered by Nokiamob revealed that the dimensions, screen size and battery life of the phone has stayed the same, but it will now ship with the YunOS operating system.
Some have speculated that the operating system will allow the latest Nokia 3310 to run basic versions of messaging apps like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger.
Previous versions have shipped with Feature OS or s30+, which powered the 2G and 3G versions, and could not run Android apps.
The documents do not give a release date for the new model.
HMD Global, based in Espoo, Finland, officially re-released the Nokkia 3310 in May after months of anticipation.
The retro device features a month-long standby, the much-loved game, Snake, and weighs just 79.6 grams (2.8 oz).
