What was your first mobile phone ?

Unread post by Patachoo »

Time for some tech nostalgia, what was the first mobile phone you got ?

Mine was a Firefly Mobile, I got it around 2008 I think. This phone could only make calls with using the front buttons (by pre register numbers), nothing more lmao but that’s was enough for a kids targeted phone

I got the pink one with the hearts shell (the only pic I was able to find is from this Reddit post, credit to the original poster u/jumbledinthebrain)

my first phone i think was a Motorola droid mini, my dad gave it to me in 2016
it was a weird phone from what i remember, however the theme and aesthetic of it was cool and unique now that i look at it.
i dont think the brand was that popular too back then.

My first phone was a Samsung B5722, I remember getting it in 2009, on my first birthday. I didn't realize when.
Since I haven't seen any cases on YouTube, pretty sad Image
