Bought this, my first mobile, 30 years ago this month 

Just a phone, only 8 number memory and no back-light

 

At the time they said mobiles fry the brain. After 30 years and 5 different generations it seems I'm OK

What was your first mobile?

Motorola Timeport L7089 tri-band (worked in the US too!) from the local O2 shop with genie SIM in contract. I still have the same number!

I think the one I liked best, of the candy-bar type, was the Sony Ericsson W810i:

I preferred the Ericsson T68 and the T28s @pgn

Had the T68 too, very dinky 😆

The P1i, with stylus and knurled side-mounted scrolling wheel, was quite, different...

Clicky rocker keys, noisy!

I think somewhere around 1994 on either One to One or Vodafone. Can't remember exactly.
