- So i was going through some stuff and came across a box that i have not opened in many moons.
I knew what was inside but was still super surprised.
Yes i know this video is long. Just something fun because news is slow :)

Phones with personalities. Modern smartphones all look alike like clones.
right?!
these were the $ )-( I T back in the day !
mohamed shifan right?? Im considering to go back to one of those fancy (actually usable and modern) flip phones, just because you stick out more. People are immediately like “whooaaa whats that!”

Just Like the people today
It was all of us who shift the importance of these "personality phones" for smartphones in the first place 🙄. I remember not wanting to trade my old flip and blackberry for it.
But now I'm actually liking my smartphone more. After all, I like going forward. And I accomplish more things with my newest device, with more ease. And I can put unique casings to it, if I feel it's just a "soulless, boring, black box" .
These personality phones are all looking the same too back then. People just put charms and stickers to make it look "different". But it's the same clones, if thousand of people all use that same pink or blue piece. If anything, you should thank the charms and phone straps for contributing to the "personality".
I really want a japanese flip phone, they look to be unique. Sadly modern phones don't have this.
The Japanese company sharp and Kyocera have flip phones that runs android, and the keyboard works as a trackpad, the sharp model is 601Sh, the kyocera model is 701Kc
Try buyee JP, got my sharp flip there
Teitoku _ how do I find them?
@@saumayaschneider2686 go to japan
SkyEx I wish
Im so glad to see im not the only one who was ever OBSESSED with these phones
Fuck I'm so obsessed now too 😭😭
sameee
You don't realise how badly I want that swivel one that can play TV
haah yeah, these were the best back in the day !
Modern smart phones can’t even play TV without a subscription, all I want is just to watch TV and I have to pay $200 for it
This is collection goals.
lol thanks!~
It's really fucking sad when keitai phones back in 2003 look better than smart phones today. Smart phones today don't even have water proofing. smh (I own a smart-phone, so no hate plox)
neither did most flip phones in 2003
They had 3G, GPS, internet and tv too. Even back then.
I still like these kinds of phones even though we already have smartphones...
Now I felt sad for being born in 2000. I hope I was born 10 years earlier.
Me, being born in 2005, missing out on all the cool 2000s culture: *am I a joke to you????*
Well i was born 2000 and i remember in 2009 having a flip phone… i stil hav it for the vibes and i record videos of my chaser since it gives a vintage vibe …but yes i wished id be born in early 80 so i could live trough 90 and late 20s
I was born in 2007 and I had a flip phone growing up :/
respect! I also kept all my keitais since my first Victor PHS from 1998 until Sharp's 821SH premium :)
oh wow, you're more pro than i !
BEAUTIFUL PHONES
thanks man !
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who had a huge obsession with Japanese flip phones in the mid 2000s. I've always wanted the Sharp Aquos 007SH which was a flip phone with a touchscreen and ran Android. I blame the J-Horror movie franchise Chakushin Ari (One Missed Call) and games like Calling for the Wii for fueling my keitai obsession
I like those! So shiny and colourful!
right?!
Thanks for the memories...seems they had more innovation and imagination in design those days :-)
Feature Phones...I remember those. Never had one, but they were the closest to a computer before smartphones. Those phones had some pretty awesome games!
magaldi yeah they always came preloaded with some awesome stuff
Ahhhh Japanese phones are the greatest! I personally imported a Kyocera Gratina 4G and even tho i have a Galaxy Note10+, its my favorite phone ever, its incredibly fun to use and since it actually runs Android, i can use all my apps on it! The trackpad functionality on the keypad isnt enough to replace a touchscreen but honestly thats why its incredibly fun to use, the workarounds you have to find make it a really fun phone for tinkerers like me!
Also never had a phone that has gathered more attention than this thing, constant questions about what it is and what it does, its insane!
It still works here in the US?
Very cool! I remember drooling over these when I was a kid. Hell, I would still use one. lol
iam 17 years old and so excited to collect old phone console and other famous things before i was born haha. by the way did those phone can be operated
Due to quarantine my phones got broken and seems it is fine to disconnect to the world, I really want to buy old phones like these flip phones, especially made in Japan. I really feel and wanted to go in Japan just to buy old flip phones and I guess that is fine text and call is still much important and I felt really inspired because of this video ♥
Japanese society has historically been defined by uniformity and collective thinking. “Hammer the nail that sticks out” kind of thing. Yet, a lot of their early 2000s tech were all about individuality and personalization. Just look at these keitai phones and minidisc players from Japan. They came in so many shapes, colors, control schemes and random special features. They were loud statements of personality and uniqueness.
Now look at the Western world, where individuality is valued and “standing out” is a good thing. Yet, most of the devices that come out of the US are plain, one-size-fits-all slabs. It has come to a point that people will question you if you aren’t carrying either an iPhone or a Samsung device.
You’d be lucky to find a premium device that comes in more than 2 or 3 colors. The size and and shape of a screen notch is the most personality devices have, and I feel that even that will be ironed out and just about all smartphones will be indistinguishable in the hand.
Back when I thought my Motorola razr was slick i watched Tokyo drift and they were slive streaming the race to each other. Was this really possible? I gotta know more about these Japanese phones.
that blue docomo phone is amazing... to be honest i'd even use one like these days :)) such a cool phone
this video was so cool. were even further away from this time period than when this video came out.
I have one from Fujitsu! I'm still using it along with my smartphone 😉
oh thats awesome. Its nice to see people still repping the old Galakei Flip Phones
Wth, why am I cryin rn? Those were the days!
I am absolutely obsessed with these Japanese phones the ones you have remind me of future diary phones
The blue from 6:35 is probably a Fujitsu which actually came out in 2007. And yes, it had a fingerprint sensor back then can you imagine? It is so sad these Japanese brands(most of them) are long gone! I remember back in 2007 there where 11 companies which made phones, this is insane! Even Casio had phones! 😆 Today there is only Sony, Sharp, Kyocera and Fujitsu. Sharp was bought by Foxconn back in 2016(66% of stakes). Lenovo just bought the bankrupt Fujitsu(the mobile division). So only Sony and Kyocera are 100% Japanese now. 😢
The lipstick phone is the Nokia 7280. It was sold worldwide.
Hi! That phone at minute 4 is a Panasonic. Telling the name P900 will not help much those who do not know much about these phones. The next one is made by Sharp. Sh comes from Sharp. P comes from Panasonic. SO comes from Sony Ericsson. F comes from Fujitsu, and N comes from Nec. 🙂
I will actually buy a flip phone when my current smart phone contract runs out. I will still be getting one with Internet access for reasons but I just want to go back to the oldschool things, I really prefer those much over current smartphones, those still have personality and cool features !
Same!
is this... the japanese keitai to trans lainpill pipeline?
@@inanestereo yeah
@@Linda- did you ever end up getting one? I'm currently eyeing up the kyocera a202kc (for cis reasons)
@@inanestereo yea a few years back i actually got myself an LG ice cream pink
i want every one of those, so cool
6:35 that is why Japan is 10 years ahead of the whole world
oh my god im rewatching this video after a while (ive gotten into final fantasy in the time being) and im just now finding out about the advent children flip phone!!! i rewatched advent children in theaters not too long ago and the phone was so cool!!!!
Japans phones ALWAYS impressed me so much
watching this in 2020
The American flip phones were so small and fat and basic compared to these. Japan was really ahead of it's time back then.
Wow, crazy cool and so intetesting stuff, love it!😃💕
Elleesa 33 thanks so much !
I really love these phones, though I never had chance to use it. Too sad the Era ended.
i didn't even know these existed, they're really interesting!
I want the sharp aquos keitai 2 601sh so bad, it’s like 300 euros on one site
Here are the models shown in the video:
Nokia 7280, Sony Ericsson W580i, P900iV (Panasonic), 920sh (Sharp), V604sh (Sharp), F-01A (Fujitsu), 931sh (Sharp), 9130c (Sharp, not based off of any Japanese model), 933sh (Sharp), Aquos S2 (Sharp).
5:49 - it is not a paper thin SIM card, it is a very small flexible PCB that allows the chip to communicate between the SIM and the phone to bypass the network lock. It does not unlock additional radio bands. This was because Japanese phones were designed to be locked permanently at the time.
6:30 - The F-01A came out in 2008.
8:40 - The Sharp 9130C is not a ripoff. However, it was a unique model developed exclusively for China and came unlocked since there was a huge market for Japanese phones. Unfortunately, it is stripped down when compared to the functionalities of the Japanese models.
Are the phones all sold by now?
Thanks.
Yes, these are Peters Private collection that he found under a table when he was moving into the good e-reader office
And yes, he knows what hypersims are
All the phones are gone
I used to have the Erickson back in the early 2000s. Lost it at an old navy tho 😭
This was when "good" was still around, now "mediocre" had overtaken all.
Oh my goodness, I loved this video. I am still oddly addicted to collecting older phones. I LOVED the look of the final "slate" phone you showed!
What is your eBay channel, I might be interested in some of the stuff you are selling on? You mentioned you would link to it but I cannot see it anywhere.
Thanks!
It's in the description of the video.
woa im not a final fantasy fan but im a photographer and im fascinated by the P900IV. hope ill be able to put my hands on one one day.
Dayum the nostalgia
SoftBank: Japanese Phone Better
Cyon: What?
My goodness.....that Pink phone so gorgeoussss!!
Flip phones are so cool!
This mobile phone was popular in Japan.
P900iv is a cool phone.
ancient but futuristic
hands down these were so cool, thats what I was wondering that where these phones are now
Their of feature phones in Japan has a unique features like mobile TV tuner(1seg), e-wallet(Osaifu-keitai, using FeliCa technology), IrDA blaster, dan waterproof(IPX5)
Was I the only one who screamed that it was Cloud's phone from Advent Children? 😆
They all looked so delicious 😍
I just saw this video and it says for years like dang I wish I would have saw this sooner I would have definitely bought all of them some pretty cool phones
That Nokia is a pretty rare phone these days
If you plan on collecting older devices proper storage is key. Remember batteries eventually swell and leak so removing them when not in use will save you plenty of headache.
Is there any way to buy that P900 FOMA iV online? Or is it only available in Japan now? The last one I found online was listed at nearly $4000 on eBay... not my price range for a phone. AND I want one that works in Japan, because I'm gonna teach English there. Any help?
Hello, what’s the name of the chargers for the SH-0J1? I want to get one here in America
amazing!
Would hyper sims work in other countries like South Korea? I wanna get an authentic flip phone from Japan but don't know if it'll work with South Korean sims.
I remember my phone 💗💗💗 so good memoriez
i remember having a docomo foma p901i and have final fantasy i n ii preloaded game.
I’m in love with him
Back in 2005-6 my dad used to have one!!
Cool!
Damn, so many memories! Did you ever sell any of these?
this vdo is what phone innovations should have been... sadly v got stuck with bricks...
i keep trying to find a ketai phone that can live up to todays standards. always wanted one, they look really cool.
Any keitai flip phones for the year 2018 thats reasonably priced? Please give me some models. I want to buy some :D
do don't know them off hand but you can go to DOCOMO or SOFTBANK 's website !
How fucking cool were thoosee! Envy you sm for having them at the time
It really good phones!
Did they hold up well? I figure half of those don't even work.
cool stuffs
Cloud’s phone is the P900iv. If anyone wants to find one your best bet is eBay and Buyee. Good luck finding it. It’s rare. Also to the person in the video by any chance is their Before crisis final fantasy vii on any of the phones?
The people of the past are laughing at us right now.
So we need to go to Japan...
Love those phones!
Japanese phones before the iphone was released were way better than american phones they were faster they were more aesthetically pleasing more modern looking and way more features, i-mode was also way better than wap if you ever used wap then you'll know
Japan phones today are way different from the way they were today…. Everything about them… i would sti,l choose those sold ten years back.
Nokia is from Finland! :)
Do you know where someone could buy these? Cause i honestly am just a weeb and i can't get enough of the look of flip phones in anime! 😅😅
you can read again the modern of the black pink phone. Pleaseeeeeee😢😢😢
softbank's 815t pb is just cursed there's a reason: its a robot
thanks for making this video, man
future dairy?
i- FUTURE DIARY??? LMAOO
f means fujitsu sh means sharp so means sony p means panasonic
Fujitsu F-01A? I want to buy it so badly. I'll also buy from you the Panasonic cellphone from you. I'll buy both from you.
Awesome 🔥
Japan really lives in the future. Too bad, phones nowadays don't have those additional features. Like, damn, they said technology advanced, so it is understandable and predicated that we should have better phones than the ones in the past right? BUT NO. We had the degraded versions instead. It's so sad just thinking about how products' qualities have degraded overtime. We're wasting way too much resources than before by making products that easily breaks.
everyone back in the day was like " WAssUP!?"
His commentary is so cute.
Where can I buy the docomo flip phones? like the sharp sh-01j? I need this
Man i still remeber having one like sharp back in 2010 and all the kids in my school thought im Tony Stark lol
I want those phones... Anyway to get them?
Remind me of Faiz Phone
THOSE R AWESOME
Phones back then
Whats the name to the blue phone...the slim one
I’m 3 years late but if by chance how much do you want for the docomo
