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.

      The w810i was my first ever mobile phone and also my last dumb phone. I used it for 9 years.

        I used it for 9 years.

        Exactly - phones used to last! I also dropped my w810i a few times but it never broke. Great little phone. In fact I’m gonna charge mine to have a play on it. I think it had an MP3 player too!

          It was still working back then, I changed because i was getting tired of typing on the small keys. I could type without looking, this was pretty cool ! All of the key had worn off anyway 😂

      Mine was Sony Ericsson V630.

      It endured me untill 2012 when I exchanged it for Sony Xperia T, it’s second best phone I had.

        A other happy v630i user here. Don’t know how many years I spent all in all, but I used it for everything. Even remember loading some books as text files, and reading quite a lot on its tiny screen during the longer bus rides.
