Just thinking about all the cell phones I've had in the past

[krunchykrome]

In 12th grade of high school, I got this Some Qualcomn phone

Then I got scammed into buying this my first year of college Motorola Startac

A year later, I got this Samsung
This was actually a decent phone.

Then Color phones with cameras came out and I had to have one! I paid $350 for this POS.
Notice the detachable camera.

I used that phone until it simply would not work anymore. Some years after that phone, I wised up and bought this RAZR.
This has been an awesome phone for me, but the battery won't last an entire day anymore.

Now I need another phone....

I had a startac in 1999. It was my first flip phone.

Anyone here ever have the vader?

That was my favorite little phone.

motorola v70 = still the coolest phone ever. small , looks great. v70 > razor

 

[giantpinkbunnyhead]

First phone: Qualcomm 2700

Second phone: Nokia 3595

Current phone: Motorola V190

I like simple phones. I don't care for the bells and whistles. The V190 was free.

Just get a replacement battery from ebay.

Nokia 5100->Startac->v60->Some Samsung phone I kept for a week->LG 8100->v710->Treo 700w

I dunno what I'll get next, even though I still have about 14 months left on my VZW contract I think I can get a new phone just no NE2 discount. With the 700wx out now I don't think I'll get much on ebay or whatever for the 700w though. Wondering if I have an 'accident' with it they'll replace it with a 700wx.

Man I have had a lot of phones

Motorola DPC-550
Oki 1300
Motorola PocketClassic 910
Nokia 232
Audiovox MVX501
Nokia 5160
Nokia 3390
Motorola v60
Sony Ericsson T616
Palm Treo 600
T-Mobile MDA
Cingular 8125
Cingular 8525
T-Mobile Dash

I also have a RAZR that was my wife's. I use it on weekends.

There were others but I can't remember the model numbers.

Nokia 6360 with Dobson Cellular One
Samsung a530 with Verizon
Samsung a670 with Verizon
LG VX-8000 with Verzion
Samsung u740 with Verizon

The a530 and the VX8000 might be two of the best phones ever created for their times. I just upgraded the 8000 today, and even now, it was a better phone than most of the phones out now. IMO, the jury is still out on the u740, but I have 14 more days to decide if I like it enough to keep it.

I've had a Motorola e815 since August '05, hasn't let me down yet; great reception, great battery life, and it's built like a freakin' tank, I've dropped it from 6 feet onto a sidewalk and it's barely got a scuff, it didn't even turn off or restart or anything when that happened.

I actually have done that with my vx8000 and had the same results. I also dropped it into a toilet once and it didn't turn off -- just took the battery off and dried it as quickly as possible and it worked the next day. I will say that phone is also a major tank. The e815 might be better because it has bluetooth tho, not that I have ever used or see myself using that function.

Meh I've had about half a dozen phones. Currently have a Nokia 2865, it's pretty nice. I hardly use it, cell phones are overrated.

 

[walkur]

I've owned 3 phones thus far.
1st phone was some Sagem model (which is stil in working order last time I checked)
2nd was the Nokia 3310, which is currently used by my mother
3rd and current is the SE Z600, no problems in the 3 years I'm using it

"Hold on guys, just let me attach my camera to my phone"

Ahh old phones... I love them. Crazy how much they have changed over the years.

For me, I went from a really old motorola in 2002,, it still had a black and white screen.
I then got a Motorola T720i.
Then got a Samsung SGH-t309
Then a Sony Ericsson K750i
Up to what I am currently using, a Samsung SGH-X820.

Out of all the phones I have had, the K750i and SGH-X820 are the best. I find that I like Samsung phones more than anything though

I don't remember the exact name and model number of my first cell phone, but it was a variant of THIS Motorola. I still have it in the basement somewhere.
