Is that fake wood on the side? A woody phone, lol.

That is a Nokia P-30. I believe it's something more akin to pleather or rubber, though it might just be a slightly different type of plastic. It's ridged to provide better grip, since these early cell phones were quite heavy.

The image is grabbed from this ebay listing

No, that appears to be a solar panel

I think it might be for copper for charging. Does look kinda like wood paneling though.
