Mine was a Nokia, mid or late 1990s, about the size of a box containing a tube of toothpaste, and came in a leather pouch with a belt clip thereon :-

It was on BT Cellnet in the days when you could ring Customer Services - in Bradford maybe ? - and any problems would be solved in the blink of an eyelid.

I remember sending my first text message @Pipstop78 ; but my first "mobile" 'phone came with a huge aerial and also had a small bag to carry it in as it was massive.
If I recall correctly, that was before BT Cellnet came into being. It was on Mercury One to One, the only other UK network at the time being Vodaphone.
