I miss my Nokia. It would go a whole week on one charge
Nah, I had the suitcase in the trunk with the full blown handset screwed into the center console.
You’re 40! How close am I?
I still have the same phone number that I originally got from Cingular in 2001, even though I’ve changed providers a half dozen times and haven’t lived in that past of the state since 2005 😆. Good times
999 33 7777
Cingular as the carrier is almost more of a tip off than the Nokia. lol.
I opened a box and found my old blackberry earlier this week.
I closed the box and put it back in the closet.
What’s past is past.
CINGULAR

I had both of those. One of them had a feature that let you create your own MIDI ringtone. I promptly composed a Nokia version of the theme song from Knight Rider, and Axel F from Beverly Hills Cop.
I started with a Motorola Star-Tac. So, I am also old.
The Nokia 5165 has always been and will always be the best phone ever. It just fucking worked. Thing was bomb-proof. If they made one with navigation and spotify I’d dump what I have and run to buy one.
CINGULAR? Youre approaching old my friend.
See if you can walk into a shop and hook em up! Or ask if you can get a new sim card for this one.
No, no! I don’t want a new phone for zero dollars. Can you just make this one work.
Yeah! I’d like to transport my land line to this number.
Yup! All my contacts are on this one.
I just need you to hook it up! 2 year contact! Sure! Let’s go! Hook this baby up!
I’ve got a spare battery and everything!
Make it work!
Ohh left one was my first lol. Feel like I’m getting old but we’re not that old: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=694TX2lQ7Uo
Nokia phones were indestructible. You could use them as artillery ammunition and they’d still call Cleo’s 1-900 number for your free reading.
Old enough to know *69 isn’t dirty
Bro, playing snake in high school during class was pure bliss…
But thankfully we had access to Newgrounds, BREAK, and liveleak on our schools computers.
The OG unrestricted interwebs was the best. Upgraded from my Nokia to the Motorola Razr. That phone wasn’t as indestructible, but it did take a shitload of abuse without shattering like it’s modern counterparts. Man, I miss Limewire something fierce
Don’t say it I’m not ready to be old yet those were my first 2 cell phones too
They still work? And follow up question they got snake on them?
Cingular? Try a Radio Shack Tandy phone on Alltel, ya whippersnapper!
Cingular…
Bruh, I bet your antennae doesn’t even extend…
Not really. My first cellphone was a giant brick. And my friends before that had just car phones. You could take it out of the car but only if you carried the giant battery pack with it.
I showed mine to my middle school class as examples of an artifact. They couldn’t get pat the idea of hitting the same button 3 times to get to the letter you needed for texting.
Show me a pager, and I’ll call you old then!!
Old? You owned cell phones!!! (I’m 55 & owned both of these).
You’re not that old unless your cell phone came in a bag…
Keypad on the right is giving me a headache! But I loved the simplicity of the keypad on the left. Can still remember how satisfying the buttons were to press!
