    Never seen a phone like that before @Rachel_Scope! It reminds me of the old Blackberry phones, does anybody remember them?

    Also, does anybody remember the music channels on TV where you could text and pay for your ringtone🤣

    Nokia had some quirky phones, but they were built like a brick out house

    @Rachel_Scope I tried to look at your profile to get an age.

    The Nokia is from 1992, it was one of the first pocket sized phones and 20 mins was enough for my boss to call me and get me back at work.

    My current phone is an all seeing all dancing Android, but it is left on Do Not Disturb now. I get back to people if and when I want too.

    Yeah I remember all the business people having Blackberry's @Mary_Scope!

    Nokias were pretty much indestructable unlike today's phones @Rag_793.

    I love that @CarNineSix. I always leave my phone on silent. I find it quite weird when someone's phone actually rings now!

    I don't think I've seen one of those before @justj74! Was it reliable?

    Did anyone have an early flip phone? I felt so cool with this, especially when I extended the aerial 😆
