Nokia 3510
cell phone model by Nokia
The Nokia 3510 is a mobile phone for the GSM network, introduced on March 12, 2002. It was the first Nokia phone to bring GPRS internet services to the mass market and their first phone to ship with Beatnik's miniBAE software-based sound engine, responsible for the playback of polyphonic ringtones and other system sounds.
The 3510 is the successor to the Nokia 3310 and is built on the upgraded Nokia DCT4 hardware platform and a Series 30 user interface. The phone also supports MMS messaging, likely the only produced monochrome display device with MMS capability. A colour display variant, 3510i, was released later in 2002. The Nokia 3510i model supports Java2ME that makes it possible for users to download and use Java applications, background images and polyphonic ringtones.
Variants
An enhanced version, Nokia 3510i, was introduced some time later on 6 September 2002 and released in December 2002. It was one of the first phones with a color screen and it was one of the longest Nokia phone models produced to date. The phone has a Nokia Series 40 96 x 65 user interface. It was sold in Europe, Russia, Middle East and Africa, while the Nokia 3530 was sold in Asia-Pacific, which operate on GSM 900/1800, and features a more conventional keypad.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Nokia 3510” as cell phone model by Nokia. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as cell phone model by Nokia. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 6, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3342834. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2002 and 1800.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
