I rocked a Samsung Alias 2 for 4 years before I got an iPhone 5. The e-ink keyboard was awesome how it changed when you flipped the screen open to portrait or landscape.

SonyEricsson w810i. It was a great phone and an upgrade from my earlier SonyEricsson T610. The w810i is in my bedroom drawer.

I got the first Android smart phone after those (G1/Dream) which I still have in my kitchen drawer.

Happy memories texting my mates in uni. God so much has changed in 20yrs. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Mine was Sony Ericsson V630.

It endured me untill 2012 when I exchanged it for Sony Xperia T, it's second best phone I had.

A other happy v630i user here. Don't know how many years I spent all in all, but I used it for everything. Even remember loading some books as text files, and reading quite a lot on its tiny screen during the longer bus rides.

The w810i was my first ever mobile phone and also my last dumb phone. I used it for 9 years.

I used it for 9 years.

Exactly - phones used to last! I also dropped my w810i a few times but it never broke. Great little phone. In fact I'm gonna charge mine to have a play on it. I think it had an MP3 player too!

It was still working back then, I changed because i was getting tired of typing on the small keys. I could type without looking, this was pretty cool ! All of the key had worn off anyway ๐Ÿ˜‚
