Ohhhh your first phone had a camera?! High roller! I remember editing ring tones! Oh man. Good times.
It was a pretty boss phone, after I hacked the crap out of it to re-enable all the features lol
are you guys doing some kind of challenge? first you the linus and now erica.
JerryRigEverything i just finished watching your last video lol
Prabjot Singh It’s annoying tbh
She's just younger
Ahhhh the E815. The sequel to the V710 which I desperately wanted. That "poor 1.3MP camera" was the first 1+ megapixel camera I'd seen after years of 0.3MP cameraphones! Oh and those keys! Yesssssssss.
Can't believe you actually did DUN with an E815 and Dell Axim. Next-level nerditude that I would have been so jealous of.
That’s what I was up to at 16 years old lol. I had ambitions... I love up and coming tech most to see what we can really get out of it. I hope we get more up and coming stuff soon. Need more things to hack and play with!!!
I had the V710 on Verizon. That phone was the baddest camera flip phone that year.
@@MickeyR6 me too, and followed it up with a Razr Maxx VE. They were so cool, and hex editing/etc to change silly stuff like backgrounds. We live in a different world now...
I had that exact same configuration, and I still have my X51v in a box somewhere. I had no idea you could use DuN with Verizon!! I feel so silly now!
I had both! This was back before WiFi was prevalent on campus so I was connecting my E815's super fast EVDO to my Toshiba Qosmio laptop for connectivity in college.
Phones that existed on or before 2007 were the cool ones. Various designs and amazing battery life. Calls and messages were covered. That’s all we needed back then.
That 51v was a huge deal. First VGA screen. The pixel density was crazy high compared to everything else that came before it.
Yes! The screen was a marvel!
I was about to comment on how it looked surprisingly good over video. Nowhere near as bad as I expected.
JerryRigEverything invited all the tech youtubers to do a video on their first ever phone they owned. Great video Erica, interesting to see your first phone. My first was an old style Nokia but I can't remember the model lol.
Shut your mouth Jimmy Hopkins
why did all the tech you tubers upload a video about their first phone today?
exactly is there something special about today ?
Who?
IJustine & Erica
@@thereallousroomakaoidarkca1326 linus techtips to :P
Erica responded to my comment and apparently JerryRigEverything asked a bunch of RUclipsrs to do this
2019 the year of first phone videos !
The e815 was my second cell phone after an Ericsson candy bar phone. Loved using the DUN hack on Verizon to feed internet via bluetooth to a Nokia internet tablet (ha, Verizon and their silly restrictions - so glad I switched to T-mobile in 2010). Anyway, it's funny how back then you looked a bit odd and felt self-conscious staring at your devices in public, but now of course it's the new 'normal'. Thanks for the throw back, Erica. Always enjoy your vids!
I had that exact Motorola phone. Mine was from Alltel. I carried it for probably three years, and it still works.
everyone im subbed to seems to be doing a "my first phone" video today ...how are y'all so in sync??
JerryRigEverything invited them to do a video on their first phone, think he posted it on Twitter.
Hello Erica welcome back. I didn't know how much I missed your reviews until they wasn't there anymore. Hope all is well with. Now if it will stop raining for a minute in Seattle we will be OK... Lol
Great video, Erica!! We recently found an old blackberry curve! The nostalgia is real! :D
My first phone was one of those nokia things with switchable face plates. I can't remember the model number!
Erica: "I don't quite recommend going and getting all of your old devices..."
Me: *opens eBay*
Daaaamn. I was an early adopter it seems in 97.
My phone could text. It could call. It could store numbers and it could call those stored numbers, but it could not text those stored numbers. This meant you had to have an absolutely insane memory to remember everybody's phone numbers to know who texted what to you, and then to reply to the text (no it didn't auto complete the number on reply).
Motorola C510 (though I can't find that model - looks similar to an M3778e). Epic phone. Epic invincible phone of ultimate brickyness.
"ultimate brickyness" Oh yeah how about my first phone Alcatel One Touch Club -when your battery died you could just throw in 3 x AA batteries and you were good to go. Thats a brick - good for self defense :)
@@stanisawszczypua9076 yeah the phone above had a NiMH pack but it really was just 4 AA NiMH cells taped together.
I got my first ever cell phone in 2005 as well, mostly for work needs. I was 25 years old at the time.
My first mobile phone was an used NMT 900, a Nokia 101. Welcome back Erica, happy new year. luv ya.
I love this video showing your history of phones in this throwback!
I had a HP version of that Erica and to this day it still remains the gadget I loved the most. Great tech is everywhere now but owning one of these palm computers back in the day was just brilliant. They were like your little friend.
Oh the nostalgia of flip phones. I miss those simpler times. The PDA's I remember them being a thing but I don't remember anyone in person actually having one. From the looks of it, it looks like a mini tablet.
PSP was a good pre-smart phone internet device! I didn't have my own PC cuz I was a teen and poor so I used the PSP browser all day everyday! Also I ripped dvd of chappeles show and other comedy to watch at school. Also pr0n... But it was a great device and now I wanna test it out to see how it runs.
I got a psp off trade me last year I clean it everyday & still play on it
it works fine
First phone was a Motorola T190. Mono chromatic display. monophonic ringtones. Pretty much all it could do was call and text. But I loved it. It was built like a tank and a remember friend that lives next door had the same one. Ringtone composer was one of the coolest things. Was always making my own tunes with it.
First PDA was a HP iPAQ h4100 I think. Used to think styluses were the coolest thing! Didn't have a way to get net on it most the time but carried it everywhere. Used for notes and tinkered with it a lot, see what I could do/ get out of it. Dad got the Rx 3715 a little while later and we traded them. Liked the look of the rx3715 more and it was built more for multimedia so he thought I'd get better use with it. I loved it. Used to put tracks I'd made in FruityLoops on it and listened to them on the school bus.
I had that Motorola & it was one of the best flip phones of that year. I loved it!
My first phone would've been in college, around 1997. It was a Motorola but I don't know the model. Candy bar style with just a B&W text screen. Google image search isn't being very helpful. I remember testing the web function once. Spent less than a minute on it and got an $11 charge on my bill. I actually still have my second or third phone though, the Sony-Ericsson s710a. LOVED that phone! Also around 1997 I had a PDA, the Compaq Aero, first PDA with a color screen I believe. I took all my class notes with it and even recorded audio from lectures. I could actually record over an hour of audio and it sounded really good, even after transferring the files to my computer.
Edit: Found it! My first phone was not Motorola is was the Qualcomm QCP-860 That was also the last time I ever used Sprint.
Nowadays, Qualcomm makes CPU chips, but back then they used to make phones? Pretty neat, if you ask me. :)
I still have my Dell Axim X51V, that bubble pop game is still my favorite mobile game.
lol I remember editing ringtones on my first phone which I think I have somewhere around the house.
I'm so glad that so many of favorite RUclipsrs did a video on their first phones! Glad to have found your channel too Erica!
Those graphics are pretty impressive actually for the time
My first phone was a Samsung Impression in the beginning of 2009. It had a 3.2 inch touchscreen and was the first phone to have an AMOLED screen in the US. I used that thing all the time and loved the slide out keyboard and touchscreen. I remember the camera being so cool too. I used to watch RUclips videos on it all the time and I would get ringtones and stuff from friends. A little later that year I got an iPhone 3G from my grandpa and gave him the Samsung. When my upgrade was due I got the 3GS and have had every subsequent iPhone model (flagship). A few HTCs and Galaxy Notes sprinkled in between. When I used the Samsung I would carry an iPod Touch 2G with my for my apps and music. That was the true device I used, like your Dell. When I got the iPhone after that I never looked back. It’s crazy how much has changed since then.
I just saw ijustine’s first phone then Erica uploads this. All today.
Oh you too? Very cool devices !! Baby erica!
It doesn't look like you've aged at all.
She's taken lol
Ahhh the memories. My first PDA was a Casio B.O.S.S. in the mid 90's and then I upgraded to a Palm device when the M100 was released. Boy I thought I was the cat's meow with each of those devices. My first semi smartphone was the LG Voyager and my second semi smartphone was a Palm Centro. My first real smartphone was the HTC Incredible and that was just so cool. Thanks for another great video and the reminder to look down memory lane.
First PDA type device was the PSP back in 2005. Man I loved that thing.
Browsing ebay and making a wish list really hits home with me.
What a blast from the past. I also had a X51v. So much nerdy stuff.
Awesome video Erica. I actually was like you where I was rocking a PDA and Phone back in the day. I had Palm Pilot and many Pocket PC’s. I know my first PDA was Palm IIIv and Sanyo 9000. I actually keep a device list of all my devices. I have had over 226 devices phones, PDA’s and smartphones over 18 years.
I still have my X51V, still works :). I also have a flip phone that I still use once in a while. If I need to do a lot of work outside, and need to frequently use a phone, I use a flip phone because the battery life is good, and people in NYC tend to not mug you for a flip phone.
Erica My first phone was the SAMSUNG E105. It didn't even have a camera 😭 though i really did love that little phone. It will always hold a special place in my heart.
Excellent. My tech was a Motorola RAZR and a big clunky Dell PC!
I had the Zire 71. I was probably the only one in my school to have a PDA. I guess it wasn't as cool as I thought it was. My first phone was a Trium Mars, followed by a Nokia 3310. It wasn't until I got the Sony Ericsson K810i that I could connect my Zire 71 to the internet via IR. I just had to make sure they were both on a flat surface with the IR ports facing each other within a close proximity. Those were the days. The days when tech was both super fun and a huge pain in the a... 🙂
My first phone was a hand-me-down Motorola Razr V2, and I LOVED that thing!
Erica you had big Smile on my face because yes I was with you and it was so nice seeing this and no you are not spoiled and or a bratt.Imo just Smart.What's wrong with having broke into the Tech world early good for you.And all those people who thought you were spoiled I'm sure wish they would have too.Awesome Video and Review so enjoyed Deb 😉👍✌
Yes I remember only Motorolas had such cool features like the mp3 ringtones. Every phone from Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Panasonic and Samsung all had unique features and all operated differently. Everything was so unique and exciting now these days we all just get roughly the same glass slabs all with the same software and feature set. Boo.
My very first phone was a Motorola e398. It was a hand-me-down from my mom, who never used it, at around 2005 - 2006. Used it quite a lot to listen to music with its dual speakers and watch videos I was sent via Bluetooth.
My first smartphone however, was a Sony xperia tipo, at late January 2013, which was a necessary purchase after finding out that my Sony Ericsson k550im (daily driver for 5 years straight) had some burnt pixels in its display. By the way, I still have that phone, stashed in its box in a wardrobe and if it wasn't for its display, it'd still be my daily driver.
Anyone rocked a pager back in the day? My older sister worked at a pager store and for my birthday gave me 2 options, their cheapest model or their fanciest model. Which do you think I picked?
The fanciest model
@@whitebeartigtig Bingo!
Had the E815, which got a lot of hype at the time. Remember many people waiting for it to be released.
I loved my palm pilot.
This phone was Verizon's replacement for the Motorola V710, which was their first Bluetooth phone. It also looks similar to the V710.
Are you me??! My first phone was actually a Philips Savvy in 1998, before upgrading to a Nokia 3210 at some point later.
Back in 2002-4 I was also that girl who turned up to classes with a Nokia 6310i and a bluetooth connection to my ipaq 5450... Cool I wasn't. But I was able to chat on IRC during my breaks, look up stuff online, etc. Pretty groundbreaking tech at the time!
Motorola Star-Tac was my first.
I had one similar to the E815, but it had a rotating camera in the hinge that you could manually roll forwards and backwards for selfies or "back" photos. I thought it was the best thing ever!
Motorola razr and that t9 texting. good times for sure.
Yup that's what I had
RAZR was my first phone lol it was awesome
that takes me back and makes me feel old lol. I remember the camera on my phone being something like 0.3 pixels. I had the classic Nokia 3310 and had a Motorola razor.
All I can remember about my first phone what that it was made by Motorola, was black, and had the orange monochrome screen. Text at that time wasn't even a thing if I remember correctly. But my first PDA was the HP iPAQ, which I still have to this day.
🎉🎉Flying papers , multi colours of balloon, delicated blossom, fantastic people, love and laughter. What it describes? HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂🍰🍻🎉🎉🎊
My first ever cellphone was a Nokia 1208... It was black and white... Basically my parents gave it to me just to know where I was back in 2008... I was 11 back then. After 1 year I bought the Nokia 5130... That was my media device,my internet device and my connectivity device... I loved listening to music on it.. I used to chat with my buddies with the phone and remind you I was 12 and most of my friends didn't have a personal phone... I had my first android in 2013... Between this period I had several Nokia phones and one of the memorable one was Nokia E-72 which I got in 2012 just because of the 5MP autofocus camera! And I loved the camera it was so fun and I have great photos from the time. I could get an android back then but android didn't have a good camera under 200$ at the time and I was too young to buy a costly device!! Now I am 23 years old and I am a student... still broke and don't have money! Right now I'm using a Xiaomi redmi note 8 pro... This one is great for the money...
I still have both that exact same Motorola phone and Dell Pocket PC at home, lol. That Pocket PC was amazing at the time.
One of my first was a motorola, still works, they are the Toyota's of phones
i rember the old motorola droids . my dad had one. it was a good android phone.
Yay welcome back
Always beautiful eric a then and now
I always wondered what that rubber circle was for underneath the antenna? My first cell was an Audiovox CDM-135. My first flip was a Pantech PN-215. I felt like a player with that phone! 😎
Hi Erica! Welcome back 😊 Reminds me of my Nokia my mom bought me in the final year of my high school
Great video, I thought you quit RUclips haha, glad you’re back! The classic Nokia was my first phone!
Mine was a 3310. It had voice dialing. Remember? Then I was so excited to get my first colour screen phone! The Samsung C100 with a 64 colour screen and polyphonic ringtones. We would get ringtones and be amazed by how it sounded so similar to the songs it was supposed to be. Haha. The I got my first camera phone which was a Samsung E530 with 80 mb onboard storage (which I thought was amazing) and a 1mp camera. Hehe. Oh the days. Phones were so unique back then especially the N Gage and the Nokia with the massive Zeiss swivel camera on the top oh and the Samsung D something with the swivel camera. Omg I remember being so amazed by the beautiful pictures it could take (for the time of course).

Where is your first phone??
We have seen Justine, Erica Griffin, JerryRig, Linus and Mrmobile so far.
Im guessing the others are tomorrow?
Mine was a Nokia 5200. It had everything a 16 year old could want and I thought mp3 ringtones were a big deal. I loved the funky red rubberised sides and battery cover, though I had hard time keeping the surface clean. I used it for little more than a year before upgrading to the N72.
You are a genius 💯
My adopted dad had that phone back in the day and I had no idea about any of this stuff
We're you able to run your install in compatibility mode?
You are such a kid Erica, my first phone was a Nokia 2190, a beautiful piece of brick.
I’m still young, yes. 30. Most of my audience is 18-34. I know what was before me :)
Liked the video. That Dell looked pretty impressive for the time. But you should have backed up your Palm Zire. There were free apps that would automatically back up to your SD card at whatever time you set up. Hooking up to your PC was an option, but not a requirement. I owned a few Windows Mobile devices and they had their advantages, but I preferred the Palm platform and had quite a few. I would upgrade to a new one when they came out. I still use a Palm Treo as a PDA and carry it with my cheap Android phone for calls and text. I like the apps and use databases I created with it over the years. I preferred Palm because of the larger selection of apps, mostly.
I remember not needing to look at the phone for texting.
And the boot up sounds were a fun thing.
same. my first one had a animated video for a ringtone. it was awesome.
My first phone was Nokia 1610. I am 30 now so I probably got it around the same time you did. Eastern EU vs North America. Clear difference.
Damn that was pocket PC until 2009!
Sweet and innocent Erica in 2005.
My first phone was a Motorola V170. It was a flip phone that had that vintage Trek feeling I wanted as a 13 year old. I used to open it and close it til I thought the hinge was going to break.
I had the axim x51v as well. I used to play toy golf on it. Man those days. Mine still works though the battery doesn't last long.
My first phone was an LG VX-5300. That was way back in 06. I remember taking pictures of things that I wanted to use as wallpapers because my parents didn't have any sort of data plan.
My first good phone was an LG Chocolate II in the spring of 2007 seemed great then, funny looking back on it now.
cool phone talk erica
Ah the 2005s. I was rocking a Samsung SCH i-730 PDA phone WITH A SLIDE UP KEYBOARD and thought I was a boss :) That had Windows Mobile on it. Blackberry what? (Did use several Blackberries in my time.)
Still remember my very first PDA: a Palm IIIe because at that time in college I couldn't yet afford the sexy new Palm V. Once I got the Palm V, I felt like I was so high tech. And then I got the foldable keyboard for the Palm V and game over. My flip phone during those times was a Samsung with a mobile browser which everyone wanted to use to check email and ESPN. Tethered with the V, I didn't even need a laptop.
Fun times indeed. I also remember upgrading to an HP Jornada PDA at some point after college.
You were baller to have a cell phone in 2005. I didn't get my first cell phone until 2011 at the age of 21. In high school I had a sony clie which was my first pda (still have it in its full functionality because it didn't have internet capability) Then I got an ipod touch 2g in 2008 which blew me away and i could make calls over wifi for free. My first real cell phone was a nokia c3 blackberry knockoff thing (also still have it and still works but only on 2g. Then I went through android phones for a few years until I got the moto e 1st gen which marks my first phone that wasn't hot garbage
My first phone was the Nokia N70, I remember connecting it to home network internet by bluetooth dongle in an always-on old PC making it sort of a wifi on bluetooth.
Actually back then Blogs with RSS feeds was pretty awesome on PDA back in the day. It was an awesome way to get relatively fresh news and things happening.
In 2005 I was also using the PPC Dell X50v. I still have it and the BT Dell keyboard. My cell was the Motorola MPX-200. (Windows Phone).
I had my first cellphone in 1997. ;) Nokia 5110, back when Nokia were the best phones to get.
My very first phone was the Motorola V505 which I bought at 18. My very first smartphone would have been the HTC 8125. Both were Cingular phones. Feels like another lifetime ago.
I loved my hacked E815! For its time, the screen was awesome! I had that baby until Verizon offered the "iPhone killing" LG Voyager (VX10000)! 🙂👍
I think my earliest tech devices were a Sony Cleà PDA and a Motorola Star TAC. The phone would get so hot while was talking on it that I was convinced I would develop a brain tumor. I really felt Cool at the time for having it though. 😁
1st phone was a Nokia E72...I still use that do date as a backup phone as it can last weeks on a single charge. But I got my first laptop back in 2008. I was only 7 during that time.
I got out of high school in 2000, but got my first personal cell phone in 05 which was a Motorola C139 on the AT&T GoPhone Network with $0.25 a minute calls, and $0.10 a page txt. Before that I had been using a Nextel flip phone from my previous job in landscape work with push to talk, and my boss at the time gave me as a Christmas gift in 02 a Palm M100 that I kept well after I got my Motorola C139, and even had a keyboard that clipped to the bottom of it to make things a bit easier.
My first cell phone was a Motorola populus from 1995 with the LED "calculator" screen.
I'm going to be 30 this month too Erica! Time has gone so quick hasn't it, swear I was 21 yesterday 🤔
*_Erica didn't know Palm's _**_#HotSync_**_ back then. LOL!_*
*My first phone was the Nokia 2010. My first PDA was the Palm m100 with a whopping 2MB (yes, megabytes) of non-expandable storage.*
_Tech I never had that I still want now: Nokia 9210i Communicator._
My very first phone was the Nokia 5110. Calls, maybe texts and snake was about it for that thing. I didn't get any fancy stuff as a kid. My sister actually got me my first flip phone with a color screen and it was awesome at the time. It was the lg vx3200. My first smart phone was the original Motorola Droid years after it came out
Cool little call back vid 👍 My first phone was the Motorola "brick" phone 😂 My first job after leaving school and it was extremely "yuppie" to have one of these phones....
I had the e815 too, I miss those days.
Damn. Color screen and MP3 ringtones. I had a monochrome screen and could edit ringtones (Nokia 3390).
My first phone was the Ericsson a1018s on Voicestream and first PDA was the Philips Nino. I know all too well not having persistent storage and losing all of my data. The good old days.
I had a Zire 71 at some point and I'm sure it had an app called epacrates for info on meds. If I remember right it was actually useful as I was a nursing assistant at the time (psych nursing). Not my first though. I had a previous palm pilot. The zire was an upgrade for me. My first cell phone was a tiny Samsung flip phone, but I don't think it had a camera?
My first was a nokia brick phone in 2002. Upgraded to a Moto Razr in 2005. I kept that Razr until 2010 when I bought my first smartphone and, since I loved Motorola at the time I got the OG Droid. I am so happy I didn't buy an Iphone. Been on Android ever since.
I had that motorola back then, I preferred it over the Razor that came out because this one did more. I used to listen to mp3s on this thing in lunch.
Yes! I had the Motorola e815!! It was a great phone. Bulky but worked. It was my 3rd phone. My first was a Nextel then moved to Verizon and had a LG vx8100. But that Moto was beastly great lol.
