Now equipped with a 4G network, the iconic Nokia 8110 is available in the Kenyan market.

The banana-shaped slider phone that first hit the market 22 years ago will now retail at Sh8,000. The phone gained global fame when it was used by movie star Keanu Reeves in the Hollywood blockbuster The Matrix.

The feature phone has also been reloaded with new applications, including Google Maps, Google Assistant, Facebook and Twitter. It is also available in dual Sim and can be used as a portable Wi-Fi hotspot.

It also carries a revamped version of the much-loved Snake game.
