Where’s the fun in that? My local community history museum has a neat little display about old telephones and switchboards and the best part is that they’re all hooked up and functional so you can use the phones to call each other.
The mobile phone I loved the best was one that used the earbud wires as a radio antenna, so I could listen to live radio as I walked around. I think it was a Moto? Loved that phone, so sad when it failed…& now the carriers probably won’t support it anyway.
I worked at SonyEricsson at their Lund, Sweden how; during their peak awesome years 2006-2008. Just before the iphone ate everyone’s lunch.
I was part of R&D support… ie. Providing feedback to engineering, from field testers, and was given a copy of every phone in prep-production; which unofficial policy was we could do what we wanted with them.
So many cool phones, with best in breed cameras and/or music players.
The best phone design ever:
