The new Nokia phones are here: Nokia 6, 5, 3 & 3310

Can someone with mobile spec reading skills speak to the 3310 as a travel phone?

I'm an immigrant living in the US, interested in a dumber phone to use when travelling across US border. I mainly travel to Sweden, but would be keen on a phone that works well across Europe, South America and, if possible, south east Asia.

The somewhat modern GUI, coupled with good battery time and dual sim seems appealing - or?

Tech spec is 2G GSM 900/1800 MHz frequency which is good across Europe and SEAsia but South America has variability (some by country, some by network) http://www.worldtimezone.com/gsm.html

It's 2G only so it depends on what provider you have. Some American providers plans to shut down their 2G networks. Sweden is fine as long as you're not up in the mountains in the north west.
