discuss Your first ever phone vs. your current one.

[Cedric]

Remember your very first mobile phone? Was it a chunky brick, a flip phone, or one of those indestructible Nokias? Fast forward to today - what phone are you rocking now, and how does it compare?

Let’s reminisce! How do you feel about the journey from playing Snake to scrolling endlessly on social media?

I’ll go first: My first phone was a Nokia 3310 (yes, the legendary one with endless battery life!), I loved playing Snake, buying several covers to change the appearance, etc. I even rocked a blue thunder cover at one point. And now I’m using a iPhone 13. The camera upgrade alone blows my mind.



What about you?

My first ever phone was a Nokia keypad phone with a torch, mp3 player, and radio as its key features. My current phone is a Galaxy M series phone.

My first phone was a Nokia 3310 with Sprint, which at the time had spotty service. I was able to use it at home, but not at school, which defeated the purpose.

We signed up under a 14-day free trial, and they still tried to pin us with the $300 cancelation fee. It took a couple of days going through customer service to get out of that bill.

A couple of years later when I started working during high-school, I got the Motorola Razr as I had a need for a phone again, but I chose Verizon over Sprint because of that bait-and-switch they tried to pull. I would count the Razr as my "first phone" as I barely used the 3310. I probably spent my first paycheck on ringtones.

I didn't get a phone until I was 20 years old. xD It was a Samsung Glide, this was right when the first smartphones were coming out. I currently have a Motorola Moto G 5G 2024 that I'm using now. It's a lower end phone though so it doesn't have much more RAM than my iPhone XR. I'm thinking about getting a newer phone sometime next year, or maybe I'll just wait until there's no more security updates for my phone.

Oh, versus my current one? The Razr is essentially a digital calculator compared to an S23 Ultra that I have now.

My first phone was Samsung keypad phone and my current phone is also Samsung. I have been using a phone for more than 15 years and except for a brief time, I have always used Samsung.

My first phone was a Motorola flip phone, and back then, I thought it was the coolest phone ever. But today, I'm using iPhone. The difference is night and day from all areas. From playing simple games to performing some tasks.
