The Nokia 3410 is a mobile phone made by Nokia which was released in early 2002, being the successor of the Nokia 3310. The 3410 was the first Java phone by Nokia. The phone features a monochrome display.

It is also the first cellphone outside Japan to have 3D graphics on mobile phones, before Symbian and OpenGL ES.

The 3410 is a compact, but somewhat heavy phone (weight:114 g, battery included). It employs up and down buttons for menu navigation. The on/off/profile button is a stiff black button located on the top of the phone.

This is one of the first ever cellular phones to be released outside Japan to feature mobile 3D graphics (notably the animated screensavers and the mobile game Munkiki's Castles). Despite it has a monochrome screen and a 96x65 screen resolution, it almost includes all of the rendering features (excluding texture mapping and its rendering features from OpenGL ES 1.0). It was only used in 3 applications (3D text generator, animated screensavers and the mobile game Munkiki's Castles). It uses a proprietary API for the mobile phone to render 3D graphics via the baseband processor (Texas Instruments MAD2WDI C GSM Baseband Processor). However, rendering on this device is only displayed on lower polygon count (since it uses software renderer) and it runs slower than other mobile phones that supports 3D graphics.
