In 1994 Motorola introduced their International 3000 series with the 3200. The more expensive 3300 was the top of the range. These rare phones STILL WORK TODAY with a modern small sim card. We offer them to you at a far less ludicrous price than the original £1800. 

The rarest of the Motorola 3000 series was the 3300. This had similar properties to the 3200 but with one new feature - the addition of a new fangled concept for sending short messages in text form. Wooo. 

This was the first and ONLY large format phone which was available with text messaging. Ooooh! Predictive text? No Easy user interface? No. T9 Dictionary and shortcuts? Fat chance... Manual input of text. Mmm lovely.

There were far fewer 3300 sold and as a result they are are really sought after and are worth up to twice the price of the 3200.

These are very highly valued by collectors. Not only was it the last of the familiar brick phone format it was the only large format brick phone that still can be used with SMS.
