Nokia 1610

Manufacturer	Nokia
Availability by country	1996

Nokia 1610 was a popular mobile phone model manufactured by Nokia. The model was published in 1996. It complemented the Nokia 2110 business model, but had significantly less features.

The phone had a monochromatic display which could show two rows of text at a time. The operating manual did not mention a possibility to send text messages, but at least units sold from 1996 and onwards included the function. The phone used an external rigid antenna, but had a groove on the inside of the battery to accommodate a pull-out type antenna. The 1610 used a credit card size SIM-card, and was powered by a NiMH type battery with a capacity of 600 mAh.
