I remember around the time of the 2 and 3rd phone in that line up saying, "I'm never getting one of those yuppie bloody phones..."Blade wrote:I saw this on twitter and thought it was an interesting photo.
Just so happens that no. 5, 6 and 9 are 3 of the 5 phones I have ever owned!

Re: How Mobile Phones Have Changed
Haha all in size order. I remember at one point they were saying how phones were going to be tiny. Clearly not happening at the moment! Suppose we ask so much of our phones, quite incredible in all honesty I think.

Re: How Mobile Phones Have Changed
I think I got in about no3 which must have been nearly 20 years ago now. Can't believe how quick time has past tbh and how much phones have changed. I don't think there phones anymore there more like personal computers and one of the apps is a phone.

Re: How Mobile Phones Have Changed
I've got loads of old phones at home.
I think they're missing the original brick phone from the start of that line up - the one with the large battery.

Re: How Mobile Phones Have Changed
I've had a few out that lineup. I'm temporarily using an old galaxy s2 so have returned to six hour battery life. Scary how much I rely on a phone these days!

Re: How Mobile Phones Have Changed
Feck!!! How old, I have had most of them, I was going out with a girl who sold mobile phones when they first arrived, so I got an early hand held, weighed a ton, could not talk for more than 30sec it would hurt lol, hated flip phones, looked cool always crap! I was digging around in the loft the other day and found a phone (type with Arial poking out the top) did anyone else replace it with an led type one, they used to light up when it rang and you were on it ha ha ha
