Remember when technology hadn’t totally found itself yet? Like, those rough, formative years of "trying new things” and “thinking outside the box?”
Here’s a revisit of some of the most notable phones of yesteryear.
1. Tracfone
1. Who the f**k would spell ‘phone' like that?
2. This phone screams “Wal-Mart.”
3. Pay-by-the-minute. Sounds like my first girlfriend, A-YO!!!
2. The LG EnV
Double the screens, double the fun (nudes).
3. Blackberry Curve
For no reason. What kind of emails did I have to deal with? None!
I think I just liked it because it screamed “New York lawyer in pantsuit who has it all.” And that is what 10 year old Myles wanted to be.
4. Palm Treo
I will never get over this phone. Why? Because this was the phone that Danielle Panabaker and Brenda Song stole from Jason Cahill (Taran Killam) in "Stuck in the Suburbs" and it was the coolest.
RIP Jason Cahill’s hair.
*Note Jason Cahill's left hand is holding a Palm Treo.
**Note Danielle Panabaker is holding some janky ass Nokia. Ew Danielle.
5. The Old People Phone (Jitterbug)
Heaven forbid you need to call ANYONE besides an operator (wtf is that even?), a tow service or 911.
Like, do old people ONLY ever get into trouble?
6. Firefly
If you had this phone, your parents either hated you or loved you way too much.
Also, how f**king binary is this phone?! Like have you SEEN "Modern Family" Firefly? Mom or Dad? What about Mom or Mom? I might want to call Mitchell or Cam!
7. T-Mobile Sidekick
T-Mobile: If it were ever cool, it was exclusively because of this phone. Legitimately every celebrity had this phone.
Please enjoy the following: A young Miley and friend showing off their Sidekicks.
The literal coolest.
8. The RAZR
Honestly, the amount of configurations you could have this phone was ungodly. Like there was: blue, pink, silver, black, grey, red, gold, 2K gold, one with a blue light on the front, one with a music player, etc.Also, does anyone remember the "Hello Moto" theme song? That's the shit that will haunt your dreams.
