Did you ever own a BlackBerry (smart phone)?

Back-in-the-day...
And...then?

What next?

I had a Blackberry Pearl around 2006. It replaced the Motorola Razr that I had been using. I switched to the HTC Dream (first Android phone) in 2008. It is too bad what happened to Blackberry. They didn't react fast enough to the changes that were happening at the time.

Work provided one for me and then when I stopped working I opted for a $15.00 flip phone from the drugstore.

During Covid I used my Trump money to buy an iPhone 11.

Next, I’ll probably upgrade the iPhone and add a watch.

I do remember that. And that was nearly 20 years ago ! And people wonder why many younger adults these days always have a phone in their hand. They grew up seeing their parents doing the same thing

My son had a Nokia cell phone before I had any cell phone. This would have been around 1998. I resisted until 2003. Never had a BB, but did have a Samsung Alias. It had a little keyboard one could use horizontally. It was my favorite phone until I got the first iPhone.

Yes and not only did I own a few..my Daughter was the International Executive for Balckberry Rim ( which was their official name... )

These are my old mobile phone.s Iphones, Sony Erriksson & Blackberry... the black one leaning on the lantern is my first Blackberry... the red one leaning on the lamp is my last. I still miss them to this day.. they took superb photos..

I've had Iphones ever since...

Yes, I owned a Blackberry. I remember thinking after I switched to an iPhone that it was like going from grade school straight to college. I dumped my iPhones too after a couple of years and now buy Samsungs. I still have photos I took with my Blackberry, which didn't come out so good.

My post should have said ''my Daughter was the International Executive for Blackberry Rim ( which was their official name... )''

I still use a basic Nokia, and I've got a couple of old ones too. The should be in a museum, but then again, so should I
