I rocked a Samsung Alias 2 for 4 years before I got an iPhone 5. The e-ink keyboard was awesome how it changed when you flipped the screen open to portrait or landscape.

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.

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 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

Samsung D900 was my last dumbphone. It was pretty cool. But my fav is still the Moto Razr v3.

Alcatel OT606A with slide out keyboard

[–] Public_Tumbleweed@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I know it was LG flip phone and it was red, but I dont know what model

[–] DudeBro@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

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.

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.

Some kind of Sony Erickson phone, don't recall the model, or if that was the model name.

I had a Sony Ericsson W595i before my first smartphone (which was a Vodafone 845)

I loved Sony Ericssons, had a bunch of them, because they were extremely moddable through VKP patches. it ran Doom natively 😄

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...

Nokia E52 And before that Sony Ericsson W200 And even before that Mitsubishi M320

[–] Michal@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] Threeme2189@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Sony Ericsson k610i -> Samsung Galaxy S2

I really like the Galaxy. It was a really good size for a smartphone.

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.

[–] grte@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

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.
