The Nokia 1110 and Nokia 1110i are low-end GSM mobile phones which were made by Nokia. The 1110 was released in 2005; the 1110i was released in 2006. Both were aimed at first-time mobile phone users. In Nokia's view, the 1110i had the advantage of ease-of-use, reliability and a low price.[2][3] These phones are very similar to the Nokia 1100. Between January and May 2007, the 1110 was marketed by Nokia as their standard low-end monochrome model before being superseded by the Nokia 1200.[4] One of its key markets was that of developing countries.[4]

The Nokia 1110 is one of the best-selling mobile phones of all time, selling about 250 million units.[5]

The differences between the models, are that 1110 features an inverted (negative) monochrome display with green texts in a black (slightly amber) background, and the 1110i features a standard, backlit in green monochrome display.[6]

Both models feature a speaking clock, which was a novel feature during the time of release. A user can use the speaking clock by pressing and holding the asterisk button while in the home screen.[7]
