Ask Lemmy

Nokia N95 and I'd probably still be using it if I didn't decide it was a great idea to go swimming with my clothes on.

I held out on a smartphone for a long time because I loved my Alias so much. That keyboard thing was cool as fuck.

An LG C1300. I carried that thing for several years. Never had to replace the battery and it would still go 3 days on a charge when I finally switched to an iPhone 3

I don't even want a smartphone now. would love a feature flip phone with the capability of being a hotspot. so wish that was a thing.

I went back to a dumb phone. I don't regeret it for one minute.

Fuck yeah, I had the Alias 2 too. Such a cool phone. Then I also switched to an iphone 5.

I had the James Bond edition of Sony Ericsson C902. The camera was nice but the UI had frame rate issues. I came from a brown SE K770i which was buttery smooth. From C902 I went to Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, my first touchscreen phone and first Android where I learned about apps, OS updates, fustom ROMs, etc. What a fantastic phone that was.

Samsung Rogue

BlackBerry

Motorola Razr IIRC. First smartphone was a Samsung Galaxy S.

Moto enV 3 I think. Went from that to an HTC windows phone and then to a Moto Droid 1

Nokia 6300. Loved that thing, battery lasted all day and then some!

Motorola Q - sold as a smart phone, was in fact dumb. Before that, moto razr

Nokia 2680 Slide.

I miss that thing. https://goo.gl/search/Nokia+2680+SLIDE+BLUE&hl=en Nokia 2680 SLIDE BLUE, Mobile phone

Nokia C5-00.

i'll let you know...

when i get one. still using a flipper. i don't "need" the internet in my pocket, and i love going weeks between charges.

I had a blackberry bold which was sorta in between smart and dumb. My last actual dumb phone was an LG rumor, which was one of those with the full querty slide-out keyboard

Don't remember the exact model but something like this Nokia 1110.

Nokia 6100. It was awesome

This is a bit of a story, and depending on how you define it, I have gone back and forth between dumb and smart phones before I finally Settled on iPhone with the 5S

My first phone was a Nokia 3330, great phone, worked well, a bit too well for my parents liking when I found the wireless access protocol feature, and bruned 100sek on useless, slow internet access back in 2001 or so...

Later, I think I managed the impossible and broke my phone, and got my dads old Nokia 8210, that was extremely tiny, and really cool.

Dropped that in the snow and lost it.

Got a Sony Ericsson K700i, cool design, pretty useless phone, I lost it at home for months, and switched to my grandmothers old Nokia 5110, I meassured it against a real brick in the walls of my school, it was two thirds the size of the brick, found my K700i, but the joystick never really worked, so...

I got a Sony Ericsson K800i! That was a beast, awesome camera, rugged as hell, and super reliable, it was the first phone I had that had a usable music player, I had a large memory stick card that I filled with music, and just jammed, I broke so many 3.5mm adapters...

Then I got what I would describe as a smartish feature phone, the Nokia 5800, I even ran Putty on it to connect with a friend's Linux server and get on IRC with screen irssi! The phone was a touch phone, but resistive touch, so I needed a stylus, the music player was annoying, but the sound from the speakers, wow, it had BASE, and actually sounded good! I could even access Youtube on it, was brilliant on WiFi!

But the 5800 started deteriorating, and I had just got my first job, with my first paycheck I splashed the cash hard, and bought, what was my first smart phone, it was beutiful, had a fold out keyboard with a Swedish keyboard, a capacitive touchscreen, HDMI out, and it was mine. I had bought myself the amazing Nokia E7, can you believe it? A real Nokia E7! It was as badass as you could get back then, I felt like a complete hacker when I ran Putty on it with the keyboard folded out, I had even set up touch gestures to navigate irssi by swiping!

That phone got pickpocketed.

I could not afford to replace my E7 at the time, so I bought a Nokia Asha 300, it was crap, but worked well enough.

Now, at that time, I had a spare sim from an old mobile broadband I used in a temp apartment, it had unlimited data...

So I got a second phone!

I found a used Nokia E72, new in box, my dad had used one, and I liked the look of it, so I bought it from a reputable used phone dealer, and used it as mobile entertainment device, I could access youtube, even on the super tiny screen I got enjoyment out of the 144p video, but what I most enjoyed was internet radio, specifically, SLAYradio, an internet radio station only playing C64 remixes, that often can legally be downloaded for free, and I got so much music that way!

A few years later, I had got rid of the 300, and was using my E72 as my main phone, three days after gettibg a new job snd getting the final paycheck rom my last job, my E72 screen broke, so I got on the iPhone train with the S5

A Siemens S55. After that I moved to a Treo 270, and stayed with Palm until Nokia gave me an N900

I had a predecessor of that (Samsung dual flip but no e ink buttons) that I lost while drunk. So I got the new iPhone 3g to replace it.https://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/general-classifieds/114261d1194963393-samsung-sch-u740-dual-flip-phone-verizon-ss1.jpg

I had this one shortly before that: https://forums.macrumors.com/proxy.php?image=http:%2F%2Fnews.cnet.com%2Fi%2Fne%2Fp%2F2005%2F042505samsung_phones.jpg&hash=72f2c8627e066462a633888642027e9f

I'm to young for. feature phones. although my first phone was a wonderful 2010 HTC desire brown a high-end phone in its heyday with 576mb of ram and a 3.7 touchscreen and like with most older android smartphones this had an user replaceable battery headphone jack and are easy to root...... They don't make erm like they use to

Some blackberry, but if that doesn’t count then it was I think the lg chocolate.
