No leave flip phones in the past The pictures on them are horrible ain't nobody trying to be pressing multiple buttons to use the internet or having to text like no
Oooh yes! I remember being out on the town with just a regular digital camera. I had a Sony Cybershot, and we were limited to the little view finder to know if we got a decent shot. No standing around and editing and posting to the internet. I also remember 35mm film cameras too. What an even better era that was. We actually took pictures and hoped they came out nicely. The trips to the drug store to drop off our film. The waiting period, the anticipation! Gathering around your friends and family when you finally got your pictures back and rejoicing over your memories that could be days, months, or even years old depending on how often you took pictures. I’m not sure if I’m anti-smart phone, but I’m definitely anti social media. I remember the days when I had to be socially creative… now I get to just bury my face in my phone when I don’t wanna talk lol
umm... flip phones were not out in the 90s. those didnt pop off until early 2000. in the 90s you had that brick Nokia phone that did. no. flip. and never broke and cost like $3000000 per month. now I know Gen X knows that... why we letting these ppl pretend the 90s was more advanced than it was?
There were flip phones in the 90’s that didn’t fold in half like the ones we just saw. They were bulkier back then and the foldable part only covered the keypad.
I was so excited when I got a flip phone that didn’t have an antenna and had a camera ❤ the Nokia was the shit tho they need to make phones as durable as they used to be now they break so easily
Hello I'm a Japanese essayist. The name is Mikan oshidari. I have published a book called [I want to stop being a slave to my smartphone]. I was addicted to my smartphone. But now I'm using a feature phone (flip phone). It's all about mental health. It was hard to stare at the screen for so long, being dominated by social media and unnecessary information. I was truly a slave to my smartphone. Now I use a feature phone (flip phone) and it's comfortable. I'm tired of using my smartphone, so I love feature phones (flip phones). But it's sad that feature phones are often ridiculed. I'm also worried that it may no longer be produced. I'm glad that you are communicating about the feature phone in this way. I hope people will reaffirm the goodness of feature phones. It's not that smartphones are bad, but feature phones are necessary for mental health. Please feel free to post again♥
Oh my God all nostalgic with selective memory: old feature phones were as expensive as modern smartphones, got people hooked on sms and internet in the 00s (yes there was already an epidemic of phone zombies back, always on their phones), and most of them were breaking so easily.
Welp, you know what they say-- Eventually, one will get tired of eating too much candy and our smartphones have indeed become our limitless candy!!! I'm not flipping back to the flip phone tho! 😁
Bruh. They act like there's no internet on the filp phones. Bruh. Half my class was using flip phones texting or either on MySpace(mobile version) and FB. And boy, did our parents get mad because the internet did cost us.
Mfs will never experience running out of minutes and can only call out free on nights and weekends. Or gotta press 1 button over and over until you get to the letter you want while sending a text 😂
The Motorola StarTAC, first released on January 3, 1996, is often assumed to be the first ever clamshell (flip) mobile phone. I used mine in 90's I don't know where all your asses at.
To those who are saying there were no flip phones in the 90s...remember the Motorola Startac? It was the first flip phone and was introduced to the market in 1996.
Why is this host holding and asking questions she should already know the answer to? They’re flip phones….she probably went through a dozen by herself.
My first phone was in 2000… a green screen flip phone… it was actually way more reliable than my iPhone and now I switched back to the flip phones… damn iPhones too glitchy, one slip of your hand and some funky thing pops up… can’t stand it anymore.
Under 30… 😂 if you are at least 22 years old you had a flip phone. most of the older gen z had flip or sliding phones going into high school/end of middle school. Especially if you had an older sibling. At 26 now most of us didn’t get a real smart phone till we were 16/17. Same for my sister whos 3 years younger than me she had a flip phone til she got to high school. So the real question is if you’re under 20 do you know what a flip phone is 😂 and obviously they’re discovering them now
How are flip phones from the 90s? 90s had pagers. Flip phones are from mid 2000s. I had a flip phone all the way until 2018 and considering how much time I waste on my smart phone and the dependence I have developed to it, it is really not worth all the convenience it offers me. I was a lot happier before I switched to smart phones.
There were no flip phones in the 90's they started with the Motorola Startac in the 2000s, in the 90's there were only chocolate bar type cell phones or brick phones
But people laughs when they using a flip phone but they spending so much money on a piece of thin glass knowing they getting ripped off i will never go back to a touch screen
they didn't really switch though, only for a short time/intermittently. Also the phone they're showing has whatsapp, facebook etc. It's cool that they're doing it but calling it changing to using an og flip phone is a little disengenous
Flip phone are from the 90s a flip phone startek y’all gotta know your history of a flip phone and how it’s changed and developed different evelution of a flip phone!
late 90s and they grew in early 2000s...most gen z by "#bringtheflipphoneback" mean cute y2k flip phones ,not the sad brick phone with an antena and a monochrome screen yall had.Stop making everything about the 90s
Touch screens are for hackers to track your moves these carriers dont care about the saftey all the care about is over price a glass for scammers and hackers
I used to have a flipped phone almost 9 years ago. I rather not go back towards it. I loved using my iPhone 14 in purple. I remembered using scrunches during the 90’s when my hair was longer and it took me a long time to grow my hair long. I didn’t get a cellphone in the late 90’s which was almost the end of that decade. That cellphone wasn’t a flip phone.
I have the feeling this is all short lived, yes as a millennial i´ve been living through the 90´s and experienced the flip phone. Gen Z probably having coming to a conclusion that they wished they experienced the 90´s and what that brought to the world. And Millennials would have wished we could have experienced the 80´s.
I'm a Millennial and I'm so happy that Gen Z wants to bring back the good old flip phones I'm so excited about this❤️ social media is very bad.
Trying to earn some money to finally buy one. I'm so excited :')
It's a lie from the media. Literally none of us are doing that. It's literally the same girl hired to say this on all the shows.
My childhood ❤ that's why I'm buying one
No leave flip phones in the past The pictures on them are horrible ain't nobody trying to be pressing multiple buttons to use the internet or having to text like no
Social media will be freaking out soon when users for social media is decreasing.

As a millennial who was born in the 90s I am really liking these nostalgic times.
My dad is ahead of the trend, he uses a flip phone.

I had a flip Motorola in like 96-97 so flip was around in the 90s
@@melissambabybroadnax3697 I had one too! 😄 Those were the moments 😆

@@naahfam they are pointing to the fold in half flip phones that everyone called a flip phone. they are not referring to analog phones
@@melissambabybroadnax3697 a flip key pad isnt considered a flip phone. it never was
Also a simple phone would have a very inexpensive data-plan. That’s one of the coolest things about this in my opinion
i have been needing another flip phone for quite some time now as i do prefer it thank you!
Yes yes yes bring the flip phone back the 90s I’ve been hoping for this
I actually kept my flip phone, might have to pull it out again!
Born in 87, I never saw a true flip phone till early 2000s.
I was so excited when I got a flip phone that didn’t have an antenna and had a camera ❤ the Nokia was the shit tho they need to make phones as durable as they used to be now they break so easily
I'm 20 and my first phone was a nokia sliding phone. I had it when I was 8. It could do just texting and calling and it replaced our family's landline

All i want is youtube on my flip phone thats all i need
On the old flip phones no GPS.
Shit Generation Z is the smartest generation we’ve had since the Silent Generation
What in the 90s ???🤔
Touch screens are a waist of money when the screen shatter the phone no more good after spending 300$ or 400$ for a phone
The Motorola StarTAC, first released on January 3, 1996, is often assumed to be the first ever clamshell (flip) mobile phone. I used mine in 90's I don't know where all your asses at.
Thank you for fact-checking these people! LOOOOOOOOVED my StarTAC!
I dunno about you but I MISS my LG Chocolate. If they brought that back, I'd grab one immediately.
Yes want flip phone again, will have more free time in life
To those who are saying there were no flip phones in the 90s...remember the Motorola Startac? It was the first flip phone and was introduced to the market in 1996.
isnt he look exactly like prince ali xd
This is the real shit alright! I love "old" retro technology like this, it's so cool we NEED to bring it back, says a 16 YO 😄.

Okay now which model retro phone is best?
Nah.. give them the real flip.. without the screen .. ie startag that’s a real challenge lol
Every time when i getta touch screen the screen always shatter after i pay 100's of $ for it
I like texting on a smart phone. If it weren't for that, I would switch. You could just take all the apps off of your smart phone.
There were no flip phones in the 90's they started with the Motorola Startac in the 2000s, in the 90's there were only chocolate bar type cell phones or brick phones
The phone in the 90's was a bag phone. The Obama phone was a flip
But people laughs when they using a flip phone but they spending so much money on a piece of thin glass knowing they getting ripped off i will never go back to a touch screen
Look how many people spend hundreds on a touch screen they have issues with it it really upsets me just thinking about it
Stay free. Don't depend on your smartphone.
they didn't really switch though, only for a short time/intermittently. Also the phone they're showing has whatsapp, facebook etc. It's cool that they're doing it but calling it changing to using an og flip phone is a little disengenous
Im getting rid of my touch screen for my flip phone
Flip phones the way to go
Im using my verizon TCL flip phone
If want go back in time gotta lose some rights
Thats a major flush of money these carriers to money hungry for a class phone thats easily can be damage

Paying 900$ for a smart phone is a waist when it comes to a screen cracking
Anybody Under the age of 30 ? Get out of here. Im 35 an I had a flip phone in my later teenage yrs
Bring back nextel
Sammy k made it
Touch screens are for hackers to track your moves these carriers dont care about the saftey all the care about is over price a glass for scammers and hackers
Or a iphone for 800$ soon you drop it 800$ gone down the drain
Meanwhile in Japan: うちは今でも折りたたみ携帯電話を使っています。アメリカの愚かなZoomer Kidsのおかげで、Flip Phone株はこれまで以上に利益を上げています。
BP need their smart phones to record their interactions with police and racist ass Karen’s and Brads. Soooo that’s a NO for me.
