This is an almost exact recreation of the first mobile phone in history.

Dynatac 8000x was a mobile phone developed in 1983 by Motorola, being the world's first sustainable mobile phone with one hand and was put on sale on March 13 of the same year.
It weighed 800 grams and measured 33 by 4.5 by 8.9 centimeters. On the product's release date, it cost US$3,995 ($10,869 in 2022) and its battery had only one hour's talk time. A year later (1984) 300,000 users had bought the terminal. This first step of the mobile revolution came from the hand of Rudy Krolopp.
