Some kind of Sony Erickson phone, don't recall the model, or if that was the model name.
A Nokia 5310, before moving over to a ZTE blade gen1. Really liked the XpressMusic phones, and their proper headphone out and proper signal levels when using it. Trying to use the aux on car stereos with any following smartphones before my current Xperia 5 III was hopeless, since the maximum voltage levels were so low you had to turn the amplifier volume up to 11 just to hear anything...
I miss phones being like this sometimes
I had a Motorola ROKR Z6, which was kinda like the RAZR, but a vertical slider, rather than a flip phone. It was ok, but eventually the dpad like, fell off or something. I don't remember exactly, but it just became unusable at some point.
Samsung D900 was my last dumbphone. It was pretty cool. But my fav is still the Moto Razr v3.
I had Nokia 2720 and I had ported DOOM to it.
It was meh. No OS updates in forever, and T9 sucks.
Sony Ericsson T700.
Nokia N75. It was an upgrade from a Sony Ericsson hand-me-down after my invincible Nokia was thrown out of the window of my car as it was being stolen (I called it and the thief answered… long story).
The N75 had a 2mp camera and MP3 playing, but tiny storage and I got a free iPod (the touch wheel one) with a college powebook around the same time. I used the N75 online once, to locate a restaurant one time, and it probably cost my $3-5 since I had no data plan.
This was a right before the iPhone 3G would make those affordable and launch the App Store. I bought that for my wife and we never went back.
Nokia 1100
Sony W980
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 also had the Alias 2, and then it became my mom's phone after I moved on to my first smartphone (HTC One M7). Loved that stupid double flipping thing to death, such a great design with the e-paper or w/e for the buttons so they could change for the different perspective / context.
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.
Alcatel OT606A with slide out keyboard
Sony Ericsson k610i -> Samsung Galaxy S2
I really like the Galaxy. It was a really good size for a smartphone.
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.
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.
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.
Got my first smartphone in 2017. My first dumbphone in 2008. Late to both parties.
A Nokia 3330 if I remember correctly.
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.
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.
Motorola A1200, black one. Not exactly dumb phone but it wasn't Android either. I love that device. Sadly they were never cheap, now days included. They are full Linux phone with GSM modules in kernel and no restrictions what so ever, so they are super popular with GSM hackers.
samsung c6112 to samsung galaxy y s5360
An LG KF600. It was pretty mediocre.
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.
