Loved this thing TO DEATH! It was great! Got it in 6th grade. It was absolutely amazing. Sadly one day the phone just stopped working. I miss it so much!
Then I got this thing...and let's just say my feelings were 100% in the opposite direction:
(Samsung Reality)
and now I'm on my 3rd phone, the iPhone 4S!

I guess I consider that my first phone, lol.
Is that a handle to get it out of your pocket with?
I think this was my model, it looked like this one. Except mine said Cingular on it. It also came with a goofy looking rubber skin that wrapped around it. Had a built-in FM radio and allowed text messaging, before they started charging for it.
This was my first phone, only it was AT&T. Until I got my iPhone, it stood as my favorite phone for 8 years.
And to think... it wasn't even that long ago. I was probably 12 so, what, 10 years ago? Technology's progression rate amazes me.
My first phone : Siemens SL45
the first phone with external memory
the first phone with MP3 player
the first phone with java -> the first phone with apps !!
it was the biggest screen on a phone with 7 lines monochromatic.

My father had that exact same one. With the goofy wooden faceplate as well! He later swapped it with the clear see-through faceplate.
I got my first cell phone in 2000. Surprisingly, it's still my favorite phone to date. I miss simplicity.
Samsung SCH3500. I believe I got it in 2000. Went through a couple due to earpiece going out. I still really liked the phone though.
1st was a Motorola 1993 or '94 model. It was about the size of a brick over half of it was battery. If you got the extended battery it was about another 1" thicker shaped pyramid like, t'was lovely.
So i had the cell phone and my best friend had his pager. Together we were the chit!!

My first phone, which I have bought in may 2011. I waited until college to buy a cell phone, and had gotten this for free with a very good contract. I kept throwing it on the ground for fun and it has never gotten one scratch, until one night, a month ago, when I accidentally dropped it on the street. Display broke
(But I hated this thing software-wise, and I have to admit that I wasn't disappointed at all
)
Nokia 5110 with classic bite marks on the rubber antenna.

Awwww yeeaaaaaa!!
Had one of these my junior/senior year of high school. I would always buy different face plates and customize them with various album art.
