Nope. Those are dumb phones, you sillies.

>>60777704
Current state of /g/.

God I fucking hate modern smartphones. Why the fuck can't I get a phone like in OP running Android instead of fucking glass slabs of shit.

I'm getting nostalgic as fuck thinking about the days I had my Sanyo Katana II.

I still have 5310's plastic sibling, 5130. Still works after 9 years of abuse and drowning it in puddle.

Yep, it's a smartphone, but it was my childhood dream to have it. I remember being amazed at that one video on YouTube showing Linux running on this thing, I wanted to have it so much. It's sad that their Quality Assurance was worse than today's Bluboo, Doogee and other cheap chinese brands, I remember reading about failing mobos, dpads and propably more, but I don't remember anymore. The keyboard had propably a really steep learning curve. Also, as its hardware was very similar to n-gage, there were hacks that made possible to play n-gage games on it, or at least try to, considering the keyboard.

This thread is really nostalgic, phones just seemed so much more fun and so different from each other, now, even though smartphones can do so much more they're all basically the same and boring.

>>60777442

i remember symbian phones already had the term "smartphone" back in the day

If you are 19 you should know you dumb fuck, but they made the same mistake as BB. They refused to move on to android at a time when everybody else was making the switch. BB stuck to their own OS and Nokia stuck with Symbian (thank fuck that OS is dead). When Nokia finally realized that they were in a shitty spot they moved on to Windows phone because fuck logic.

Phones nowadays are without a doubt more powerful and more capable than any of these older smartphones but man I get so nostalgic seeing actual differences in design, attempts to innovate, and physical buttons rather than the black shit slabs we have today.

Okay son.

Here's my phone history. None of the old ones are sexy. I remember feeling like such a badass in high school with the Siemens phone since I could look up a few things on the internet with it.

They didn't make an iPhone.

Also, they clinged to Symbian too much, Meego should have been rolled out 6-8 years earlier.

Because they were

Posting my own phone history because why not. I like to stuff to last. I have 2 other phones but I got them for free and don't use them really at all. Phone on the right is still my daily carry.
