Hello hex bears! How old are you?
The age of tech to age of human relationship really breaks down as soon as you leave the imperial core or even the middle class, so I'm not so worried about it.
I've already logged all your identities in the fed database handed that in last month this one is just for fun
You’re not narrowing down shit, something like 2/3rds of this site was born in 1990
Old enough to party.
Sony Ericson Z525.
Nokia 5110, back in the very late 90s was my first phone.
First cellular phone to make a phone call on? The Motorola 2950(i think) bag phone in my Aunt’s mid 90s convertible mustang. It only worked in certain parts of San Antonio, Tx. An average phone call cost about 15-20 bucks (back then calls were dollars per minute not minutes per dollar).
Now get off my fuckin lawn.
Bag phone? Damn. Waiting for the car phone users to roll in
Motorola Microtac
Doesn't even have snake smh my head
mine was an iphone 6s yall are OLD wtf
Siemens A60 until it was sentenced to death by washing machine.
mine was a nokia 6085. it was cute and i honestly wish i still had it but it's very lost to time by now lol
Nokia 1209
Samsung galaxy s6, it was brand new and it stopped working after a year
First phone i bought with my own money was an s6 and yeah it died after a year with some boot looping thing. Couldn't even get my photos off it so i lost a lot cos I didn't back shit up back then lol... Still pissed. Engaging with Samsung support to use the warranty also didn't work because their customer support website just didn't function at all
Got a windows phone after and ngl its still the best phone i ever used
Galaxy S4, I think. We got a phone pretty late for our age cohort though
Edit: to be honest I have no idea whether it was S4, S5, or S6
Some LG flip phone idk
Tamagotchi
This bad boy. I loved the blobby buttons and its rubbery exterior
No way mine too! 
Can’t remember the brand but the model was a1326s.
This is what google returns
Damn, phones back then really were a different kind of breed.
