I rocked a Samsung Alias 2 for 4 years before I got an iPhone 5. The e-ink keyboard was awesome how it changed when you flipped the screen open to portrait or landscape.

Nit sure what it was called, but I'm pretty sure that not only it's the last Qwerty keyboard phone i used, it's also one of the last phone Nokia sold in my country.

[–] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Some kind of Sony Erickson phone, don't recall the model, or if that was the model name.

[–] Asnabel@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Nokia E52 And before that Sony Ericsson W200 And even before that Mitsubishi M320

I had a Sony Ericsson W595i before my first smartphone (which was a Vodafone 845)

I loved Sony Ericssons, had a bunch of them, because they were extremely moddable through VKP patches. it ran Doom natively 😄

Motorola v551j

[–] Thteven@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Nokia 3220 with the cool led lights on the side lol

I used that thing until it literally fell apart, and I did not treat it gently.

i'll let you know...

when i get one. still using a flipper. i don't "need" the internet in my pocket, and i love going weeks between charges.

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Man, I don't remember the exact model, but it was a newer black Nokia phone I think. I remember the one before it though, the OG Motorola Razr flip phone.

[–] Michal@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Probably Siemens C65 as my first smartphone was Siemens SXG75.

But later I got a Sony Ericsson K800 which is a feature phone, then I got a more mainstream smartphone Nokia N95 8Gb.

[–] Public_Tumbleweed@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I know it was LG flip phone and it was red, but I dont know what model

[–] JRaccoon@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Nokia E71 with the full QWERTY keyboard. Loved it, even though the keys were too small to comfortable use. I guess technically speaking that's still a smartphone so before that I had some Samsung flip phone, can't remember the exact model

I was late to the cell phone game and never got a "nice" dumb phone. I had a crappy TracFone. Reception was okay. Texting was torture. Bought an HTC Droid around 2010-2011 and never looked back.

[–] pelya@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I had Nokia 2720 and I had ported DOOM to it.

It was meh. No OS updates in forever, and T9 sucks.

[–] grte@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

I believe it was this guy, an LG Cosmos 2. I recall it being not great. But it was infinitely nicer to type on than any phone I've had since so there's that.

Alcatel OT606A with slide out keyboard

[–] thelastknowngod@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Newegg used to sell this one dumb phone for like $12. Completely unbranded garbage but it made calls and did sms.

My brother used to lose his phone or drop it in the toilet constantly. We had like 3 or 4 of that crappy phone just because he kept doing stupid stuff.

[–] SecretPancake@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Samsung D900 was my last dumbphone. It was pretty cool. But my fav is still the Moto Razr v3.

[–] havokdj@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I miss phones being like this sometimes

[–] UdeRecife@literature.cafe 1 points 1 year ago

Got my first smartphone in 2017. My first dumbphone in 2008. Late to both parties.

[–] ZosoRocks3@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

A Samsung F400,it was a slider that slid up to reveal the number pad and down to reveal a speaker. Was great for music, don't remember much more about it. Moved on to the Blackberry Bold after that as far as I remember.

[–] mkhopper@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I had a Sanyo SCP 7400 (clamshell) for a number of years during the mid-2000s and it was solid as a rock. Loved that phone.

[–] ThatBaldFella@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

An LG KF600. It was pretty mediocre.

[–] lnxtx@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago
[–] DudeBro@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I don't remember the name, but it was some Samsung phone with a relatively low resolution touch screen and a slide out keyboard. I got so good at texting with the slide out keyboard, god I miss those.

[–] b14700@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

samsung c6112 to samsung galaxy y s5360

[–] pete_the_cat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)
