Vance Palau Fernandez from Spain entered the Guinness World Records by collecting an impressive collection of 3615 mobile phones. This result surpassed the previous record of 3456 phones by Romanian collector Andrei Bilbi Argentis, set in 2023. "RBC Life" reports this.
Fernandez's passion for collecting began in 2008 with Nokia phones. By 2018, his collection already included 700 devices of this brand. He then expanded his interests to include phones from other manufacturers and even prototypes of unreleased Nokia models.
Today, Fernandez's collection spans a wide range of brands, including Siemens, NEC, Motorola, Blackberry, Samsung, HTC and Apple. Of particular value are rare and exclusive models, such as the limited edition Nokia 3220 Star Wars Ep III.
Despite its impressive scale, Fernandez considers his collection unfinished and plans to further expand it. He already calls his collection a museum, noting that he has about 700 Nokia models alone out of more than 1,000 the company has ever produced.
The collection is kept in Fernandez's apartment in Barcelona, turning his home into a veritable treasure trove of mobile communications history.
