I was wondering, what were all the cell phones that you have owned?
While I don't remember the specific years that I have had them, I can remember the models.
- My first phone was a Nokia 3620 candybar phone based on the Symbian S60 platform.
- My second was a Nokia N75 flip phone, also based on Symbian S60.
- My third and last Symbian S60-based phone was a Nokia 6650 fold flip phone.
- After leaving Symbian S60, I went over to BlackBerry. My first BlackBerry was a BlackBerry Curve 3G 9300.
- My second and last BlackBerry was a BlackBerry Torch 9810.
- Then, I went to Android with the Samsung Galaxy Note series. My first Note was the Note 2.
- Then I got the Note 3.
- I skipped the Note 4, but got the Note 5.
- Luckily I skipped the Note 7 (there was no Note 6), and my current phone is the Note 8. I don't plan to upgrade anytime soon since I am holding off until 5G matures.
Could you remember all your cell phones that you had? |

Nokia all the way from the late 80's till two years ago (had contract testing their new phones, so, got a new flagship from each serie few times a year). Lots of phones over those years - flip, slide, twist, swivel, touchscreen - you name it. No way I could remember all of them.
I think the first one was Mobira. It was a heavy brick, lol.
Then I had the first digital 1011, it was so much nicer! A slider phone (I think I still have some of them in the garage, together with all sorts of pagers).
Most had a very impressive camera, especially the Lumias (1020 model had 41 MP's) I had many pictures posted here, on C-D.
The last one was Lumia 930. Both 1020 and 930 are still running fine, just don't get any software updates.
Now I am having a Pixel phone...

Can I remember? No. A bunch of Nokias that I enjoyed then went to the iphone 4 years ago and never looked back. Flip phones are nice, but was forced into texting by my 30ish coworkers. Goodby flip, hello iphone. Love my current iPhone . Will never go back. All i can say, been a cell phone guy since since the late 1990s. Dropped the landline six/7 years ago. No regreets

Oy - not gonna remember every one as I had one like every few months working in IT. But the brick phones were Nokia or Motorola - StarTac, Razr, etc. My very first personal cell was a Qualcomm Sprint PCS phone. I think that was essentially the only one available.
Then it was the Palm, and Blackberry - not quite smart phones.
Smartphones - Started w/ Blackberry Storm, Curve, etc. Then Androids - pretty much Samsung Galaxy's and now Pixel's.

No way I could remember that, having upgraded every two years since our first in 1992. That's a total of 12-13 different models.

Good grief. I got my first phone (a Motorola) in 2014 and still have it. It calls, texts, takes pictures, and gets on the Internet. That's all I need. 
By the way, I'm not a technophobe at all. I had a PC and modem in the early 1980s when they were still widely considered a curiosity and there was hardly anything to dial up to. I just haven't felt any need to upgrade my phone yet. |

My first was a car phone. No way do I remember all in the intervening years.

I can't remember my first phone in 1991/2. It wasn't a Motorola but was pretty brick-like, weighed about a pound if I recall. Any suggestions?
My current phones are a Note 9 and an iPhone X. Holding off any upgrades until 5G arrives.
