And there's still this much battery left. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. I wasn't expecting it to still have any power left at all. I suppose with the sim out, all it was doing was powering the clock, but still! Unfortunately, I've had to retire it as my network won't connect on it anymore.

And here's her big sister. She was a bit of a rebel ;)

The blue one was my first ever phone.

Ah yes. Texting via GSM with limited text size so you'd have to be careful what to write. And playing Snake. And clunky as hell in the pocket. But not as tall as modern phones. Those were just different times

My Nokias both fit in my pocket. My smartphone? Not a chance.

I love the colour! Back when phones were fun, instead of the ultra serious business black rectangles we have now.

Some iPhone models have had more colour options but it still not quite the same.
