My spouse has a recurring nightmare including a Nokia 3310
Vaguely related, considerably off topic:
... As a child I had a recurring nightmare about being chased by essentially demon possesed pants.
Because of this goddamned book:

Thank you Dr. Seuss, for literally authoring (and illustrating!) my nightmares.
My nightmare version was basically me trying to put my pants on for school, except oh no! a fucking poltergeist has possesed them, they are alive, they are bad, and they are chasing me.
Literally started having the nightmares the same night after reading this.
This is so bad and hilarious at the same time. I feel for you, even if my laughing makes me look like a liar (艸≧▽≦)｡
As a child I kept having a nightmare of a sentient kite chasing me through a hotel. I don't think any media exists I picked this up from so maybe kid brains just love producing nightmares of getting chased by random objects.
3310 is so strong it can distort the fabric of reality and enter dreams
