It is one of the cult icons of life in the noughties.

The Nokia 3310 is widely regarded as the most reliable phone ever made, and it could be making a comeback.

Plans were announced this week for the phone to be relaunched for around £50.

It is widely regarded as the most reliable phone ever made, with good reason.

It's indestructibility has seen it become an internet meme, while modern phones pale in comparison to the 3310's battery life.

But what is South Cumbria's favourite retro phone?

Motorola were leaders of the pack when the dawn of the flip phone rolled around, with the V50 and Razr iconic in their own right.

The company launched the first flip phone in 1996 with the Motorola Startac – the first phone to offer a vibrate mode.

Then there are the phones which heralded the dawn of the smart era.

Going as far back as 1994, the IBM Simon was capable of sending emails and could link to fax machines.

It was still a far from from the early days of the BlackBerry and iPhone, with the latter's 2G launching ten years ago in 2007.

Going really retro, the first mobile phone was the Motorola DynaTAC 8000X, weighing in at 1.75lb, although less than the 22lb Mobira Senator from 1982 – Nokia's first phone, originally intended as a car phone.
