I prefer the slightly newer 3410. It has a better button layout and added features such as web browser, picture editor and downloadable games (my grandma somehow has the long-lost first ever 3D Java game Munkiki's Castles on hers, which has been in daily use for 20 years). However, they are so similar that their later revisions only differed by the button placement and firmware (see Janus Cycle's video).

Yowza, that man certainly violated that 3310 in ways it's going to remember. That's a neat piece of hardware for sure.

Funny how he flashed the firmware and struggled with the incompatible button layout rather than getting a cheap second-hand 3410, even a broken one would do (are there any broken ones, though?)

Well clearly, it's not about having a working 3410, but rather to show the progression of the 3310 hardware.
