my handphone evolution

I got my first handphone when I was in Form 2 (2003). It was a hand-me-down by my first sister. And it was none other than Nokia 3310!

I noticed most of my friends my age had Nokia 3310 as their first phone. Nokia 3310 is a real tahan lasak phone. No matter how many times you drop it, left right up down sideways backways, it wont spoil! As PeiShing says, you can use it when you need help eating crabs! LOL

I used it until middle of 2004 before the keypads start getting irritating. Some keys need to be pressed superly hard before it appears on the screen. I was struggling for a few months with it and suddenly I got offered to buy a second-hand Nokia 2100 that has been used only for a few months.

Woisheh, back then it was one of the kinda good phone. It has a rhythmic backlight alert! It actually follows the beat of my ringtone! And it uses white light, not yellow light! And at the back cover, you get to put pictures on it like a photo frame. WOISHEHHHHHH!

I had that phone until end of 2005, where I actually saved for the first time to buy a handphone. It was a Sony Ericsson Z520.

My first camera phone that can play mp3 songs too! My first time using a flip phone that supposed to be YENG! hahahaha

Too bad YENG phone doesnt last long. First it always gets hang and finally the screen went totally blank! It died at the end of 2006, right after the warranty period ended. DARN! I took it for a repair and it cost me more than 100bucks i remember! *sobs*

After repair it still doesnt work well, it keeps getting hang. That's when I exchange my phone with my mum because she uses it slowly so it doesnt get hang! LOL I was back to using Mum's black and white Nokia. :(

Then in March/April 2007, I got offered to buy a second-hand handphone again. It's a Nokia 3230.

It was kinda bulky a little, but since I needed a handphone and the price was quite cheap, so I took the offer.

Again, it died on me after about 6 months. Halfway using, the screen would fade away and become a total blank.

Then, I got myself a Nokia 6300 in October 2007, the red version. I love that phone. I was prepared to use that phone for at least 2-3 years ahead!

Too bad after 4 months, I lost it in Gurney. :*( I was sooo soooo sad!! Sigh......

Luckily a kind friend of me *ahem* Lean lend me a Nokia 6510 while I start saving money and get mum and dad and sisters to contribute to get a new handphone.

After that, I got myself a Sony Ericsson W910 in April 2008 after being influenced by my sister, Shu-Wen. My first slide phone!

At first I have trouble using the keypad but once I got used to it, I love this phone to the max! I love the SensMe and Shake Control! I love the smooth slide. I love the marble game! Most of all, I love the screen. It's BIG! And yet the phone is considered kinda slim. :)

Too bad now this phone of mine is in the hospital. The upper keypads are not functioning. And again, it's after the 1 year warranty period. Need to spend money to repair again. ARGHHHH!!!

So currently, I'm using the Nokia 6510 borrowed from Lean again. Back to black and white!
