Had a plumber come by in 2006 who had one of these while I was still a teenager and I thought it was cool that he used it to manage all his work appointments and basic business stuff. I much preferred the HP iPAQ I had at the time though as it had a bigger screen and more games. Things I really liked at the time. Although it made me really want a PDA with phone abilities hahaha.

iPAQs probably deserve an episode of When Phones were Fun although they are technically not phones, they can be turned into a phone via a module. They are the wildest implementation of modularity together with Handspring PDAs. I remember I had an iPAQ (one of the 5500 series?) which was almost a phone. It had a sticking out antenna just for wifi, and had a sim card slot that serves no purpose. I guess HP wanted to make it a phone but changed their mind at the last minute

I had one of these when I was 14, I was so obsessed with phones growing up and after hours of research decided to get it. I would spend hours just playing golf on it and organizing folders. Sadly, after a few months it got stolen in PE lol. Seeing this video I never did get over it, might go buy one to satisfy my inner loss.

P900 reached legendary status, if I remember correctly a lot of people preferred the P900 over P910 as the P910 almost tried to be everything to everyone a little too much. P910 was almost an ‘S’ version of the P900, with slightly improved screen and more onboard memory.

Symbian was way ahead of its time and I miss it. I have both a Nokia 2760H and a 6133. These phones still look and feel very modern. these were the first devices I owned that could play music on, send pictures via Bluetooth to Windows Mobile phones and store files on without the heavy need of a computer. The 6133 was so modern in fact, I could use Yahoo Messenger with most of the features the desktop-class app had while I was away from home. These phones were a dream for me at the time. The speakers on them are loud and crisp. I love snapping my 6133 open and closed with the side button. Every now and then I'll boot them up just for the pure nostalgia along with other devices I've collected over the years.

I worked on this device at Symbian and you should know that we called apps 'apps' even then, not 'third party applications'. I wrote a proposal for a universal 'app store' for Symbian powered devices back around 2002. It was rejected because 'Nokia didn't believe there was a big enough market for apps'.

The term "app" goes back to the 1980s. You can find early 90s episodes of "Computer Chronicles" that use the term. It seems people believe this term was invented by Apple or the smartphone era, but it wasn't.

Hi, Michael Thank you for writing and producing this review with the P910i you acquired from me🥰. As always video quality from you is top-notch! This series is one of my favorite on KZbin. It takes us back to a time when mobile devices used funky branding, features and customizability. The contrast is almost unbelievable when compared to modern devices - such as the Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy lineups. I thought I threw a full sized sim card in there.... my bad! I have so much of those just lying around. Trust me, I will be showing this video to my friends, as I now have BRAGGING RIGHTS!!!!😎😎😎 EDIT: Fun fact, this phone was used by Andrew Garfield's character in the 2010 film, The Social Network.

Great series! I had the P910 back in the day (and later the P990 and P1). A great phone for it's time. It's amazing the amount of accessories included back then. The only thing I did not like back then was that firmware updates were often at the mercy of the network provider as to whether you received it or not. Phones were often customized to the network.

The first and second generation cell phone i really love it. :) I can tell you back in 2003 i had a Nokia 6600, 2007 Nokia 6120 classic, Sony ericsson W960... So on; I have finally bought a flip phone once again after seeing this video. It brought a lot of memories, I know, i live in a different generation but i got to disconnect from all the social media, the smartphone life - phone dings to much from all the apps we have now n days. It feels weird having a old era phone, Although at the same time, it get the job done; Like calls and texting "the original button press experience". :D Thumbs up on your content! I really enjoy them.

I had a friend at the office who had this. At the time it was the bleeding edge because it combined a phone and a PDA. I was carrying two devices in my pockets then. A symbian phone and a Palm PDA. So witnessing this expensive juggernaut was something. p/s - drew a breath when you mentioned the jogdial. Had it on my Sony Clie Palm PDA and later on company issued Blackberry. Tactile sensation at its peak. I really missed it.

Call me crazy, but I would love to see an episode of this series on the original iPhone. I know, I know, it is the very phone that precipitated the design trend which this series decries, but I think it’s important to remember how, at that time, it truly was a new, unique, and, yes, fun take on the mobile phone. So fun, in fact, and executed with such polish, that it became the driving force behind smartphones becoming mainstream devices. Design stagnation non withstanding, I think that is something all tech nerds such as myself should celebrate.

Oh, MrMobile, thanks for another portion of nostalgia. I remember when I was a kid I used to go to the mobile phone stores and take promotion journals from there and then read them through. I remember how on the last pages I could see phones like SE M600 (that was my dream phone, and actually still is), P990i, Nokia N73, N95. I knew everything about these phones and believed that one day I'll get myself one of them. After some time I got myself K700i, then K790i, K810i. I remember how I used to modify it's firmware with community patches, installing elfs on it, changing anything on the phone (like menu styles, hidden system configuration, camera drivers) from itself via MiniCommander app. Back in the day phones really were fun. Right now, even though most of the phones run Android (which has Linux kernel under the hood, that is capable of many things) and some of them are user-unlockable, firwmare is mostly the same.

Defo one of my dream phones back in the day, when PDA phones simply oozed surrealism. was in high school when it first came out & was simply too damn broke to afford something so godlike back in the day. nevertheless, it was one of the reasons why i was so into phones & so enthused by new releases. a stark contrast to where i stand today when phones are concerned, as anything that're not foldables ain't even gonna pique my interest. it's a rather weird thing, coming to think about it. the dream of seeing smartphones becoming a reality was why i got so excited about phones back in the day, & that excitement was thoroughly snuffed out not long after the dream did become reality to the point where everyone was owning one.

We should blame Apple for their lousy ideas about removing accessories. Smartphone companies follow the trends.

The amount of research on stuff that isn't easy to find given the period, unique expertese from someone who was a mobile phone enthusiast before phones were widespread enough for that to be a practical thing for most people, the effort of sourcing these things and getting them working, subject matter that remains timeless in a space where every video usually is never watched again after a month and all wrapped up in a package of phenomenal editing. this series is nothing short of amazing.

I LOVED the p80p and p900 and something we’ve lost is the JOY of the side wheel. Turn to scroll and press to click. Wonderful. I miss it.

The optional flip reminds me of my old Samsung Luminix SCH-N255 with interchangeable "chin" - included, of course, in the box - which could convert it from a 3310esque bar to a bona fide flip phone. AFAIK it should be quite rare, as most of the research I done on it indicates a very limited LATAM/SA release.

I still wish sony would make P910 on modern era version with bigger screen, slimmer, but still have the qwerty flip keyboard. 4:25, i love that qwerty keyboard. At that time, it's better than nothing, almost other phone only had numeric keypad. And i have no problem using my thumb, maybe because i'm asian, it still fit for me (even though i am 180cm tall). And it doesn't need arrow/cursor button because we can use the jog dial to move the cursor.

My first smartphone was the SE M600i. It’s still my all time favourite phone. Bar none. UIQ was phenomenal.

I was a happy owner of the p800, p900 and then the P910. I loved it, at the time. It was so ahead of its time. Thank you for making this video.

What a coincidence! I powered up my old P900i last week just for fun. I can't describe how I loved this phone before I bought a newer and smallest phone... But, it's still work. Thanks for this video :D!

Still remember the day I bought my P800. Loved the optional keypad, although it had resistive "dimples" that pressed on the touchscreen to dial numbers. I think I removed it rather quickly. There was a great racing game for it that used the scrollwheel as a steering wheel.

I had the P800 and loved it. The Jog wheel predates blackberry. It was a original Sony Mobile feature as seen on phones like the Sony CMD Z5 back in 2000. Also, I can't believe you didn't show of how good the dock was. It would mirror your phones display to your PC and you could even use your PC as input to control the phone, I'd always reply to friends SMS message with through my PC.
