The Nokia 2010 is a mobile phone announced by Finnish phone manufacturer Nokia in January 1994.
According to the late Matti Makkonen, who invented SMS text messages, Nokia 2010 was the first mobile phone to enable writing messages easily.
Other features include lists of 10 dialled calls, 10 received calls and 10 missed calls.
The phone has a monochromatic display that can show two rows of text at a time, which are surrounded by symbols for dedicated functions — battery status and reception level on either side; SMS message notification, keypad lock, et al. at the top. The handset has an antenna slot that supports either an external rigid antenna, or a pull-out type antenna (more common). The 2010 used a full-size (1FF) sim-card.
Nokia 2010 was the more affordable version in the 2xxx series than the business-oriented Nokia 2110, both of which were released in 1994.
In terms of design, the 2010 stayed truer to its predecessor model of Nokia 1011 than the 2110.
