Fracturedfox,

I also had the alias 2. I thought I was pretty hot shit with the fancy flip-both-directions phone. And I think there was a little display on the outside too, right? With the time and some other basic notifications?

droidpenguin,

Yep! Could even use the tiny outside display as a viewfinder!

Bonifratz,

A Nokia 3330 if I remember correctly.

Longmactoppedup,

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.

tiredofsametab,

Some flip-phone from Sprint, though I can't even recall the name now. It had the ability to play text-based games and even snake! I think I was carrying a Palm Pilot near the end of that. It was an upgrade from the first brick I kept in my car for emergencies only. In 2004ish, I upgraded to a Siemens SX66 (Windows-based smartphone) and ditched the Palm Pilot. I continued to use Windows phones (I think I ended with an HTC Hero or something similar), until finally being convinced by borrowing a friend's old iPhone to get one of those. Was on iPhone from 3gs until 6plus. I made the jump to Android when Pixel 6 Pro came out, and that's what I still have today.

TechNerdWizard42,

Another early 2000’s smartphone user. Whoop whoop. It seems to blow people’s mind that you could have a colour touchscreen smartphone years before the stupid iPhone was even invented.

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

sangriaferret,

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

Xariphon,

I had the Envy 2, the last phone I had with an actual physical keyboard.

It's the one feature I miss the most. If I could have smartphone functionality with a physical keyboard I would be much happier.

SlurpDaddySlushy,

I think about this all the time. I’ll give up being waterproof for a full-sized slide-out keyboard.

DAMunzy,

An Apple iPhone! Hahaha, I kid. . . . . I use Arch, btw.

Toes,

My first phone was a smartphone. But a smartphone version of the one in your picture would be awesome.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

I’ve seen proof of concepts and Kickstarters.

Uncertain if they’re good or just a nostalgic gimmick

droidpenguin,

This small form factor running Android would be very cool! Despite a small screen, it’d probably work well enough since you wouldn’t have a software keyboard taking up 50% of the screen real estate. The e-ink keyboard is a good compromise of having dynamic changing keys but still have the tactile feedback.

I don't member the exact model but I had an LG Voyager that i held onto for a long time... I did NOT want to give up my physical keyboard for the touchscreen keyboard so I held out as long as I could. If Samsung came out with a slide-out keyboard for smartphones I'd be on that shit right away.

Nokia 3220 with the cool led lights on the side lol

I used that thing until it literally fell apart, and I did not treat it gently.

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://clublexus.com/…/114261d1194963393-sams…

I had this one shortly before that: forums.macrumors.com/proxy.php?image=http:%2F%2Fn…
