A Nokia 301 phone has saved the life of a man in Afghanistan after a bullet aimed at the user failed to penetrate the device.

One of the developers of the phone, Peter Skillman made a comment via his Twitter account taking credit for the life saving phone.

He wrote, "A Nokia phone I worked on a few years ago saved the life of a man in Afghanistan last week. The embedded bullet...."

A picture from the post showed the device totally destroyed but saved a life in the process.

Nokia has always sold on stories concerning the strength of their devices which reportedly have the ability to endure ball falls and other phone accidents.

This incident is really a true test of its strength.

When phones were phones. Saving peoples lives with long battery life in case of emergency and sturdy build to tackle the elements.


Now current generation of phones is all about how thin it is, who has the most explosive power (Note 7 takes the crown) and who can do a quick charge the fastest (and proceed to die the fastest).

A 4 foot drop and people will go like "Yeeee!. E don be. The screen break abi?!. I talk am. Hope sey u go find parts o" UNLIKE the usual "Oh, its a Nokia. Thank God it didnt crack the tiles used on the ground. Them for usse you renovate their building"



I miss the good old days.

OP, I'm coming, I wanna go buy my Nokia phone.

ifyeez:
If na Tecno and em brothers Infinix Solo etc the man for done be dead body by now

As in eh, they would probably be removing the numerous shattered phone fragments from his body.
Better one bullet and still have a chance of survival than one bullet and other "mini bullets".

Back then, we dodge when a phone is about to make an impact. But fast forward to 2016, we literally DIVE under the phone before we start stories that touch.

Nokia phone the new bullet-proof while other phones are busy formin explosive.
