Before iPhones took over, these phones were the ones! πŸ“±πŸ₯Ί

From Nokia and BlackBerry to Motorola and Samsung, these phones bring back memories of a different era of mobile phones.

Which of these phones did you use back in the day?

So your mom no tell you how sweet blackberry was and how the bbm pin was unique to each phone which reduced blackberry theft in it’s time?

Ask her first 😊

For some reasons I hold a very strong grudge against blackberry company. I feel they didn't fight back hard enough to compete against android and iOS. I prefer the black berry everyday to the iphone and Android to be honest but such is life , No king rules forever.
