Never used Nokia though it had major market share those days.
I love that this includes modern artifacts as well. The nineties mobile phone already looks archaeological by comparison to modern ones.
My favourite station is Rokin, because it includes an amazing display of these artifacts (from Roman dishes to Nokia 3310s) in between the escalators that take you to the platform. It's incredible.

Seems to me like a good, culturally enriching way for a city to spend a bit of time and money.
That's exactly what history should be about. Ordinary lives of ordinary people. But it's mostly which King fought with which emperor and slept with which socialite.
Depends on the sources, earlier historical writing is definitely like that, whilst more modern writing often has a more nuanced approach.
“histoire vue d'en bas et non d'en haut”
What's the problem exactly? In the Netherlands we sometimes take the time to make nice things just because it looks nice and/or because we like to commemorate our shared history.
There's an Ericsson GH388 phone I used in 90s!
IIRC it was my first mobile.
