Cant believe no one had a Ericsson R310

My first phone, went through lots of Ericssons, Sony Ericssons and Nokias(favourite 8600 Luna), a few samsungs

(biggest crap ever before iPhone), went with two blackberrys then finally made the jump to iPhone 4s (was eyeing an iPhone since the first one)

Motorola Startac. I thought I was the man at 16, cell phone, 45minutes per month during the day, unlimited at night. Battery wouldn't even last the day, had to have a couple of spares.

Motorola 7500, standby about 8-10hrs back in the mid 90s

Who doesn't remember the RAZR obsession?

cambookpro · Feb 19, 2013, 05:20 PM

A Nokia something-or-other.

Had a green/black screen, maybe a 3310.

However, the first phone I loved was the Motorola Razr V3. It was amazing!

Two screens? Oh mer gerd...

I had a Sony phone that I purchased from the Sharper Image while I was on my way back from Greece in 97 I believe. It wasnt a flip, and the way you answered it was by sliding the earpiece up. I cannot remember the model of it though.

skippymac · 06:11 AM

I think it was the Nokia 3310:

If not it was something very similar. Hand me down from my 2 sisters when I started secondary school.

I then had a succession of the same crappy flip phone I forget the name of that my mum got for 15 quid apiece at Sainsbury's, even though they kept breaking.

Then LG Shine, LG Optimus, Samsung Galaxy Apollo (all crap) and finally my second good phone after the nokia - iPhone 5

ppcg4mac · Mar 23, 2013, 05:12 PM

My first one was a Motorola c168i Go Phone (AT&T). It was as crappy as it looked, but it was Nokia level indestructible, i dropped it while riding my bike once, and it somehow survived getting run over. It also dented my wall a few times (in 7 th grade, i had bigger issues than i do now!)

I had one of those. Feel in a creek and died. (Well, *I* fell in the creek, it fell out of my "holster" to the bottom and got all gunked up. Never recovered.)

Motorola C520

Not my picture, using one from Google.

Was 13 when i got that for christmas some 13years ago!

WOW

Fralle · Apr 5, 2013, 06:47 PM

Motorola 5200 with the extra fat battery...

I was soo cool for owning a mobilephone! At least I thought I was...

This was mine:

CalebLevArn · Apr 6, 2013, 05:35 PM

My first.

AdamInNi · Apr 7, 2013, 06:25 AM

My first was a samsung flip top that I cant remember the name of. I was 8 or 9 at the time and it had a digiscreen but I thought I was so cool with it, haha.

The first I can remember the name off was this Nokia 3220 which was my second phone and I bought it with either christmas or birthday money when I was 9 or 10. It lit up at the side and it was a pretty good phone!

The I had 12 more phones including Windows phones, Blackberries, and iPhone 3GS which I bought off ebay (it didn't work too well) and Android phones. Quite a few of these where hand me downs or bought with my own money. The others came on contract that my Mum paid for.

Now I have this, my iPhone 4 which I got as a present for passing all my GCSEs. I near died when my parents said they wanted to get me something this expensive! They first said iPad but I already had a Kindle Fire so I asked for an iPhone of the same value as I was using a HORRIBLE Android phone as my dog ate my good one at that time and they said yes

So, 15 phones by the age of 16! That is ridiculous, even with a fair few being hand me downs when my parents where finished with them...
