what was your first smartphone?

[Morty2264]

BlackBerry Bold 9000 in 2009. Finally signed up on a contract. I was buying Sony Ericsson.

9 years later and I've upgraded about 92 times owned every flagship. Right now I have OnePlus 6 and SAMSUNG Galaxy Note 9.

That's a good combo! How are you liking the OnePlus 6?

WinMo 6 and all that!

That's a super cool phone!

Some early LG phone on Tmobile, had it half a year and upgraded. Thing was terrible in every way compared to modern phones, yet at the time I was amazed and impressed with the apps and having a file browser like a PC. Thing ran 2.0 or Gingerbread or something.

Upgraded to a G2X and it was actually decent.

Mine was Sony Xperia Z3 Compact (Black). It was my favorite smartphone, even modern day smartphones don't provide me that feel that it offered back in the day.

Oh wow this was the same phone i started out with as well ages ago

Mine was the Treo 650 through Sprint. I remember trying to go to any websites on it was painfully slow. I dropped it several times and each time, the antenna broke off and I glued it right back on. This is my actual phone from back then.

Awesome! Thank you for showing us pictures of it! Ah, the good ol' days, when glue could fix your phone.

What about first Android phone. Mine was the HTC Hero. I didn't understand what I had at the time. Next I bought the og Evo and that's when I dove head first into modding.

Was an exciting time for Android.

That's a good question! My first Android phone was the Nexus 5. Best introduction to Android ever. I miss that phone!

Motorola Droid OG. I think it was running Eclair or something in that range of Android 1.4. I had a couple of LG "multi media" phones before that. But, this was my first actual smartphone.

Technically a Blackberry but since my mom didn't want to pay the $30 monthly data fee I didn't have free internet access so I'll just say the HTC Aria.

That is the same story with me!

My first Smartphone was a Samsung Instinct and my first Android phone was the HTC Hero and my second Android phone was the HTC Evo!
