Cell phones. Not the new high tech fancy smancy ones. Im talk'n bout the old school ones. Not like the 80's either. Like the original pocket portable mobile phones. Example? Sure here. [url]http://i2.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/008/134/nokia-3310-troubleshooting.jpg[/url]
Anyways, Im looking into getting an older phone. They are cheap, reliable, almost unbreakable, and have the battery life of multiple days. So please, if you have any ideas of some cool phones you like, want to share, or have any personal experience with. Post them! They can be newer or older really. I just want to browse around at what the hip community thinks is a good choice. Tech savvy, gamers and stuff totally know what to get and what will last. So thanks man or helping! Right now I have an older lg flip phone that is about to break so I really need a replacement. Much love!

those were the most unreliable pieces of butt hole back then. ALWAYS got dust in the screen, and they broke easy. they were like the current iphones really.

shit buttons, shit menu, shit durability
its shit
yeah it was a piece of shit but you weren't anybody if you didn't have one back then
I remember when I was in elementary school in the early 00's and I got the very first Nokia phone with a color screen, the 3510i.
That was the shit back in the day, I still have it around somewhere.

Would you be interested in selling it?
I'm using the Sony Ericsson W810i. I got my first one in Fall 2006 and it lasted until around.. 2010ish. I'm on my 2nd one now because I love it so much.

Pros:
-excellent texting, in my opinion. Easy to learn t9, texting one handed is easy.
-small
-tough as fking nails
-camera is neat
-can add storage w/ pro-duo memory card
-mp3 player option is good
-external speaker is good
-I've dropped mine in water a few times and after drying it out, it's fine
-***LED flashlight feature! soo handy.
cons:
-speaker volume when calling is too quiet (biggest problem)
-the goofy proprietary sony plug can be a pain, especially when using it to play music
-needs the sony-to-aux cable to plug to plug in listening devices
The first one of mine died after I dropped it for the millionth time.. the screen went all white. I could still navigate the phone by memory and make calls, but a white screen just won't do.
They're cheap now, too.

looks pink to me, faggot
I still have my krazer... It's not that old.
Get a smartphone and get a solid case for it.
[QUOTE=No_Excuses;37132073]Get a smartphone and get a solid case for it.[/QUOTE]
Smartphone = battery life of 6 hours and an unlimited data plan of 45 dollars a month minimum. :/ Im too broke and need something that can last me the whole day, with just the basics man. Talk and text.
What the fuck kind of smartphone are you using? If you don't kill your battery watching porn and playing stupid games, it lasts a surprisingly long time
[editline]8th August 2012[/editline]
And unlimited data probably means the internet and shit too. Fuck that
U have to have a data plan to get a smart phone now. And there isn't a point in having a nice fancy ass phone if you cant use it for cool shit besides talking and texting.

the best thing, MP3 playback is a dream on this thing
there are some newer ones with the same general shape and size, which is good because this one's camera is shit
I use a smartphone because they are one of the best and/or defining devices of this period of time, and keep a spare Samsung dumbphone in my pack as a back-up.

Something in between a mobile phone and a handheld gaming apparatus. It was super expensive at launch and the total game library for it is made by 20 games, more or less.

This is my first and only dumbphone, I was quite late in getting a mobile phone. I only got one when I started college and it only got eight months use before being replaced by a zte blade which itself has recently been replaced by a Samsung Galaxy S3.

I use this thing, and have had it for quite a while, don't see the point in getting a new one as this phone does what I need without complication.

The one I have now, got it 2 years ago
[B]Nokia 1209[/B]
Pros:
It has a FUCKING FLASHLIGHT
Awesome keyboard for texting
Battery lasts really long unless you're constantly texting, then it'd be just a day
Cons:
No MMS
Short memory for SMS
Used to have a Sony Ericsson. The one in the picture is a slightly newer model, mine was old, second hand, had a 3 minute battery life and the only button that worked was the 5 button.
