Nokia 8110 (1996)

Before it gained fame as the “banana phone” in The Matrix, the Nokia 8110 was already turning heads with its distinctive curved design and slider mechanism that revealed the keypad. The sliding cover that protected the keys when not in use also allowed users to answer calls with a flick of the thumb. Its ergonomic shape made it comfortable to hold against your face, while its revolutionary monochrome LCD screen seemed impossibly advanced at the time.
