My first cell phone? Was a Nokia of some description. Don't remember what model it was. I consider my first "real" cell phone to be my Samsung Sync flip phone.
It was a Motorola Something-er-other. I forget the model. And I don't have a picture of it either, and since I can't remember the model I can't go search for one either.
Mine was a Siemens a50, which got returned a week later because the spongey buttons wore out and no longer clicked =/

I replaced it with a Sony CMD-J70, twas a great phone that used a wheel on the side to scroll through the menu

When the 3 network came out I moved onto the NEC 313, then the Nokia 7600, then I had a NEC 338 for a week, then a Motorola v600 which I broke when I got curious about how the top half of a flip phone works, then a Sony Ericsson t610, started my first job and got a Motorola e1000, which I replaced with a LG U890 then got a Nokia 5230 which was recently replaced with a HTC Mozart (WP7) that my brother gave me, when WP8 comes out it'll be replaced with a Lumia 820 or 920 (finally, built in wireless charging!).
That's my entire phone ownership history, even though you asked for just the first

I got this bad boy in 7th grade.
I remember kids were considered spoiled having a cell phone before high school, and the hot phone at the time was the Razer. I felt so cool buying all those chiptune ringtones of songs and listening to them on the bus on the way home from school. My parents got mad at me, but it was worth it back then.
Looking back now that we have kids in elementary school with iPhones... It makes me feel kind of old.

When I turned 14 I think...high school age (2002), I got my first Cell Phone! It was a LG C2000 and my service provider was Cingular. I don't think they're around anymore.
Same for me. I was going to post it but I couldn't remember who made it or what it was called. That thing was indestructible though.Yopaz said:Now I'm coming with a new one
Yeah, Siemens M35. It wasn't very good, but it was kinda practical to have a phone.
This beauty, right here:
No camera, only one screen, no full keypad, and couldn't even vibrate and ring at the same time (it would vibrate for a second and then ring for a second or two, and repeat).
YES. This phone was my first, way back in freshman year of high school (late 2005-ish). It stayed with me for quite some time, until a friend of mine stuck a rake in the front spoke of my bike and I flipped onto it, cracking the screen.TeletubbiesGolfGun said:
this bad boy was a fucking brick, the samsung A650, shit ran hot as oil lit on fire when you texted alot, but god damn if it could be destroyed, it went through the missourri river, ran over 3 times, tossed out a 2 story window, and the battery still lasted me for 3.5 years before starting to poop out (and i charge my phone every night)
good memories...texted like a champ on it.
