If you think you love your phone, wait till you hear about
Wences Palau Fernandez! This Spaniard just made it into the Guinness World
Records with a mind-boggling collection of 3,615 unique mobile phones. His love
affair with phones began in 1998, when he got his first Nokia 3210.
Now, Wences owns over 700 Nokia models. What started as a
simple display unit has turned into rooms dedicated to his collection. He
didn’t stop at Nokia though — his treasure trove includes Siemens, Sony
Ericsson, Blackberry, Motorola, HTC, Samsung and even Apple phones.
Guess what? He’s not done yet! Wences plans to keep
expanding his collection, which he feels is still incomplete. Check out his
impressive collection and tell us if you still think you're too attached to
your phone?
