A bit of nostalgia.. phones you're still fond of from years gone by?

Considering they've now got a social discussion area on the forum figured I might try and start a thread :Smiling:

 

What old phones do you still have a soft spot for even if you wouldn't be seen dead carrying them down the street anymore?

 

Sharp GX 25 is still a favourite of mine from late 2004 back when Vodafone still carried Sharp as a manufacturer. There was also a red limited addition Ferarri version. Really sturdy and reliable phone but you had to live with just 3MB internal memory at the time - almost unheard of now. There were lots of shoddy flip phones on the market back then where the connectors weren't secure and the screen would often die a death and lose contact with the battery and keypad - this one never failed

 

Next up the Sony Ericsson W900i walkman phone. I remember having the white version of this towards the end of 2005, mainly because of the huge amount of internal memory it carried at the time - just short of 500MB with a card slot taking it up to 4GB. Certainly the top Ericsson walkman phone at one point and a bit different with the 'swivel' flip screen. Had Mobile TV as a subscription on my contract with this one (around the time of the big 3G push) although looking back it never really did take off.

 

 

 

 

Any other mobile memories out there?

I think my Sony Ericsson W800i Walkman phone was one of my favourites!

It was the first phone I got on a monthly plan when I started working here way back in 2005. 

 

Failing that, I was also a big fan of my old Sony Ericsson C902. :Smiling:
