What was your first mobile phone ?
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) Source : https://www.reddit.com/r/nostalgia/comm ... irca_2005/

Re: What was your first mobile phone ?
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.

Re: What was your first mobile phone ?
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

Re: What was your first mobile phone ?
Idk if this is the exact model but I used to have an Alcatel Tracfone. Before this though I had an Alcatel Flip Phone but it belonged to my mom I believe. This was a REALLY long time ago though.

Re: What was your first mobile phone ?
My first mobile phone was the LG K8 from 2017. Even after all these years I still have it!
It has very low specs and nowdays it runs slowly and the battery doesn't last very long, but I like its small size and it did its job pretty well, all things considered. I love love love that it has a removable cover that easily allows you to remove the SD/SIM card and replace the battery, which is something you sadly don't see anymore in most smart phones.
