This brings me back...This was the first phone i ever loved, so many memories.
david michael it truly is a classic! They don’t make them as unique as this any more. I would love a real modern version of this. Thanks for coming by and watching! 😁
@@theconfusingwords maybe one day 😋 people are tired or iPhone and similar
@@alexandersmith9135 I wish I could go back to a more basic phone! I hope someday there is a trend and subset of nonsmart phones 😊
Man this brings back so many memories. The way you opening it gave me a lil anxiety, that shit would start to go would have to put a claim to have it exchanged. So many memories wow!
I wish they still made phones like this!!
I wish there was some place I could download the original Sidekick ringtones
K L me too!!
Gosh I love this sounds make me so nostalgic
I remember always playing Pac-Man on one in the mid to late 2000s
I miss using mine. Then came 10 years of blackberry’s and now the silly iPhone. What I wouldn’t give for another sidekick.
Same!! I want a company to make old school phones with modern insides please. I wish I was rich so I could do that lol
The memories 😢😢
I wish I didn’t sell all of mine I had three!
Where do you show the notes part of it?
This was my first smartphone. It was either this or the first blue blackberry that was huge with a keyboard.
Was it a blackberry curve?
@@onfire4664 No. like two or three generations before that. It was literally blue like a blueberry. We used to call it the blueberry.
@@kensta2468 like BLUEEEEEE
@@onfire4664 yep.
@@kensta2468 like cotton candy blue?
The one I have didn't come with nearly as many games on it. Is there a way to download them still?
Unfortunately I am unaware of any way to download the games at this point as I am sure the official server has long since been removed. There may be a way, I am just not aware of it. I was able to download everything for free after they discontinued service, but before they shut everything down completely
does anyone have a sidekick for sale?
I had three at the time of listing this video and they are sold! You might do best checking out eBay for one!
2:46 I swear the phone is making those sounds on it's own now, I bet it would of drove some people mad if they had to listen to it often. The Games look like something that you'd play on a 90s handheld console, unlike other games for other phones of the Sidekicks time... I wonder what Look Mum No Computer would do if he got his hands on this phone (I bet it would be probably total nightmare fuel, just like when he made the Furby organ)
Was that sound real? I challenge you
@@SamsNeatProjects haven't seen this video in ages! Need to watch and listen again
Where did you find yours? I’m looking to buy one 😂
I’m sorry to say I bought it on eBay about 15 years ago- and used it as a phone at the time of buying it! I sold all three that I had on eBay shortly after filming this video. I got more than what I paid for them! I think put an eBay alert on if you want to buy one.
What’s that noise it’s making?
Not sure. Time stamp?
Tell me about it the sidekick id was the shit it was the best sidekick phone i've ever owned... i mean the sidekick id was like my baby but on a contract tho
We need to bring these back! Sidekicks are the best! I wish they would make a modern one
can i buy it from you?
it already sold on ebay, I sold two of them actually. Only have a broken one left, sorry! :(
Was this one the first or second one you sold?
Finally I found a perfect video for this phenomenal phone , as a Frenchie who loves this phone I’m so grateful 🥹 I really wish to have one 😢
Do you sell it?
Sorry sold over a year ago
I would check eBay for one
Does wifi work on this
No it doesn’t work
@@theconfusingwords oh man I wish it did., I’m doing a tech retro review on these phones.. check out my podcast page if you want to, take care ruclips.net/channel/UCTFjor09C4GR3qCTlz7g1_w
I sold it 12 yrs ago for 50 euros…
Wish you still had it! Lol
Tmail was the shit
Hahaha it sure was. The good old days 😝
@@theconfusingwords I remember being one of like 3 kids I knew that had sidekicks in high school (2006) but my cousin did too so we thought we were super dope. Also if someone had a tmail I knew they were legit lol
That’s when you know you made it, if you had tmail lol
