Your Phone Timeline

[Vegastouch]

I've had in excess of 100 phones over the years, way too many to list!

The addiction is real

I remember my very 1st phone though from back in the 90's, it was a Mitsubishi MT-30 flip front phone.

I haven't had nearly that many but I still can't recall the model numbers.

I've had 3 Motorola flips, 2 Samsung flips, ....my very first one was a brick that don't recall the brand. Sanyo?
Nokia flip 6133
Blackberry Pearl
First gen iPhone 4GB and 8GB
Galaxy Vibrant(S1)
Galaxy S3
Nexus 5
Galaxy S6
Galaxy S7
Galaxy S9

Something like that. I may be missing one or two.

Goodness, I certainly don’t know all the models. My first cell phone was 25 years ago with Cellular One. I just know it was kinda big and gray with an antenna, but they were past all that “bag in the car” stuff. As they gradually got smaller, I upgraded. I remember getting the small Nokia that was a little rectangle that had curved corners. I loved that little phone. I know I went from that to various Nokia flips.

From my Nokias, I went to iPhone, starting with the 3G (I got the first one, but it just wouldn’t hold a charge for any time at all, and I returned it).

Since the 3G, I’ve had every, single iPhone with the exception of the 5C and the X/XS/XSMax (I have XR due to issues with the OLED). Actually, I’m lying, I had both the 6 and 6+, but never had the 7 or 8; only the plus versions of those.

So all Nokias then all iPhones.

Also, I should note that I was with Cellular One, which was bought by Cingular, so then I was with Cingular, which was bought by AT&T, and I’m still with them - I’ve had the same cell phone number, and technically the same provider, for 25 years!

I guess if I’m nothing else, I’m loyal! ;-p

Happiest purchase was iphone 4. Almost had unboxing ceremony LOL

Samsung f480 was a phone from hell, didnt like it at all and the major reason was the touch screen. Unresponsive and freezes a lot. The most unfriendly of all.

S9+ the most entertaining and friendly until recent update......

S7 edge is my best mate. I had everything locked in on the that phone, well done Samsung really great phone in every way.

Agreed. iPhone had been out for a couple of years but nothing like the 4. That device was like "dang, this is what a smartphone is meant to be". I lean Apple because of that device.

Is the A30 a backup?

 

[Healer Flame]

Is the A30 a backup?

I have a data only sim i use it for that, its locked to one carrier but A30 really surprised me. You get a lot for what you paid.

Very reliable, light, huge screen ..etc..etc....

Not sure if you are being sarcastic but its a strange question. What chinese clone? Sony is still Japanese and Ericsson was Swedish.

If you want to know the history of Sony Ericsson google it.

 

[millerj123]

Since this is communications, are we including pagers?

 

[Healer Flame]

Why not , show us what you got.

 

[millerj123]

Why not , show us what you got.

Lol, because I can't. I had four or five pagers for work starting in about '93, along with a ton of phones I can't name.

 

[LTENETWORK]

I know both of companies. But you had Sonny Ericsson, like some has NokLa.
You know very well Sony company, but Sonny I never heard.
I'm talking about this.

I have very huge list. First ever device I had Pager, and after first phone Siemens C35. I've been tech guy and tried a lot of phones. But now for the moment Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus 5G is longest one what I'm using since september. Otherwise I switching phones 3 - 5 times per year. Maybe I'm geting old.

 

[Healer Flame]

Maybe I'm geting old.

Nah you are not getting old ,the reason is Note10 is too good to be replaced
