The funny thing is my first phone was a Motorola microtac 9800x and my car had a five speed manual transmission and I never had a wreck in my life and hands free was not a thing. So someone please tell me how people forget how to drive with one hand on the wheel? Did people get dumber over the years are we going to become a race of people that needs a computer to tell them how to eat and clean their butts. Is the skills that made the human race what it was slipping away. I think one electric magnetic pulse would kill off most of mankind.

Everytime I see Marty Cooper, my eyes instantly start filling with water. I think most people don't even realize how big of an influence this old, charismatic man had on today's tech world. If it wasn't for his groundbreaking invention, there would be no iPhone, no Android, no smartphones AT ALL. This man and his team of engineers single-handedly changed the way we connect with each other forever. He is, by any means, the epitome of a freakin' LEGEND!!!!

If you told someone from even 1900s that you could communicate to anyone wirelessly at one point it would be crazy to them.

This is one of the best videos I have ever seen Marques. You have gotten SO so so good. It's been amazing watching you grow as a presenter. This type of content is so much better than just the tech only content. Your editing is spectacular and your vision and writing are great. Also as an software/electrical engineer you getting the interview with Martin Cooper literally made the hairs on my back stand on end. Then acting out the scene from Martin Cooper's experience was "chiefs kiss." Great job, you're wonderful!

@@reverietapes I think the weird part for me is that back then, everyone knew what it was and we all knew the song, even me as a white chick from a middle-class suburb of Detroit. Music back then crossed racial and economic lines. Even the TV shows that were on prime time TV were primarily what would now be knows as a "black" TV show, but back then I never thought of them that way. It is just strange and sad that things seem even more divided now. Yes, you see white suburban kids listening to rap now and you may see a show or two with mostly black casts on prime time, but are white people watching those shows and not thinking of them as "black" TV shows? I don't know the answer, but it was just something I was thinking about.

Love how you guys are laughing at it now, but that phone was amazing. I had 2 batteries. It was kinda easy to carry. After that we had the Nextels, and then I got into the Sidekicks. Been a fan of MKBHD and all these tech guys for years. It's crazy to think you guys didn't see this era. (It doesn't seem that long ago to people over 35)

11:00 Your reaction to the StarTAC is - crazy - lol. At the time, "small and lightweight" was EVERYTHING. Phones were only a tool for voice calls, so the optimum phone was considered the tiniest thing on which you could dial a number and make a call. I was in middle school at the time, and my best friend's dad was a doctor. He got a StarTAC right as they came out. I remember one time he let me hold it, and that phone felt like the crown jewels or something. I mean I still distinctly remember the excitement all these years later. And you guys are like "meh, unimpressive" and throw it aside. That right there shows me however much things have changed with phones.

I am 47 years old, grew up in the 80's and remember all of these! My first memory of a car phone I was 11 years old and in my uncles car with my cousins driving to a birthday party and he had a car cell phone but the way he traveled around with was in a suitcase. When the phone rang you lifted the suitcase and answered the phone. I also remember the car phones that fit onto your dash that were also featured in this video, the pager and of course the very first handheld cell phone. I also remember all the flip phones that first came too. I used to have a pink razor! In my 20s I knew people with Blackberry phones. I thought they were so awesome at the time, and the people that carried them. If you had a BlackBerry you were somebody cool! Lol It's pretty amazing how far we've come in technology.

Yes it was. And California was a conservative state with the best colleges in the world. Today, California is a libtard sh!t hole of bad schools and homeless poop everywhere. I was 18 in 1980. The work was plentiful, the streets were "safe" if you were tough, and there were far fewer government intrusions. But today, life if far easier. Cars are better, phones are better, food is better. But you gotta know, crime and government are killing America today.

Back in the days of Dynatec, cell phones were basically operating like radios( walkie talkies). The radios like the Dynatec would communicate with something similiar to a repeater site ,usually a radio tower. Today smartphones are radically different, but in essence smartphones and cellphones are a derivative of radios but with much weaker tx power and higher bandwidth( more data handling capacity.) Radios today still work the same way but with better coverage, very narrow bandwidth and a great emergency communications tool. Radios can communicate with each other and without infrastructure.

The "women's" phone looked like a compact with birth control pill buttons lol. Marques also didn't mention beepers went through a phase where you COULD send actual alpha-numeric messages. You had to call a number, speak with the operator who would type the message for you. My aunt once asked me to page my uncle and tell him to "buy milk". At the time, it was kind of embarrassing to ask the operator to send that message (since beepers were more business oriented), but the operator said she pretty much received all kinds of messages like that lol.

@stefsmurf
@stefsmurf 5 жыл бұрын
That's not true. Faxes used to take time to appear on someone's machine, especially if it was a long fax, depending on how the message was transmitted. YOU are forgetting that faxes were INVENTED in the 19th century, and first were done via wired transmissions. If you've ever had to use a dial-up modem before, you'd know that things weren't immediate, even if it was just text, even in the 1980s.
@JessieBanana
@JessieBanana 2 жыл бұрын
No, faxes took quite a while to receive and were notoriously unreliable. Calling to follow up or confirm the receipt of a fax was typical. It was why most faxes have send receipts. Can someone not get your email, sure, but it’s much less likely.
