Nokia C5-00.

I forget the name but it was the same style at the LG FlipShot.

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 Motorola StarTac, but I also had a plug-in organizer that I could import my contacts and initiate calls with. On top of that I had a cable that that I could tether my iPaq to by dialing #777 . My next phone was a Palm Treo.

Something like this, idk if it was this exact phone though. Only used it for a few months before getting an LG smartphone.

Nokia 8210. It was small and awesome. It was before small became lame.

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

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

Nokia 2680 Slide.

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

Nokia 6100. It was awesome

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

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

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

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

Last non-android was a Nokia 95-4. Was still fairly smart though. In fact if I recall it had a lot more functionality than the iPhone 3g that my gf had at the same time.

Last non smart was probably the Nokia 7250.

LG Voyager. Loved that phone!

I believe it was Siemens MC60. I remember getting my arm broken and then getting 10k CZK from the accident benefits. Parents asked me what I wanted for part of that money when I was in the hospital and I said this.

Then I bought a refurbished Treo 650 in 2015, an awesome piece of technology if only it had a WiFi (there was a possibility of a module that clipped on the back which had its own battery, or there were WiFi SDIO cards, but I, being a poor student who poured all his savings into the phone (yeah, very bad financial decision), couldn't afford either of them.

I still miss a phone like that, but with a modern chipset and maybe a better OS (but still somehow based on the PalmOS original path)

I had a Sanyo SCP 7400 (clamshell) for a number of years during the mid-2000s and it was solid as a rock. Loved that phone.

I think it was a 2nd-hand Nokia N-Gage someone gave me. Weird phone.

Man, I don't remember the exact model, but it was a newer black Nokia phone I think. I remember the one before it though, the OG Motorola Razr flip phone.

Motorola A1200, black one. Not exactly dumb phone but it wasn't Android either. I love that device. Sadly they were never cheap, now days included. They are full Linux phone with GSM modules in kernel and no restrictions what so ever, so they are super popular with GSM hackers.

Got my first smartphone in 2017. My first dumbphone in 2008. Late to both parties.

I miss phones being like this sometimes

Probably Siemens C65 as my first smartphone was Siemens SXG75.

But later I got a Sony Ericsson K800 which is a feature phone, then I got a more mainstream smartphone Nokia N95 8Gb.
