A lot of them are still operational, batteries still intact and all. I had one Motorola that I had charged to see if I had got all the pics off of it. Shit ended up sitting in storage for a year. While we were unpacking in our new crib I came across it and for shits and giggles I tried to power it up: The battery still had a charge and it turned on.
It's the phone on the left:

Before Wiki there was...
I still got my first ever phone too (motorola), I'll dig it out later lol
The Nokia 8210, 3210, 8910's were bullet proof... I jumped into a swimming pool on holiday with my 8210 in my shorts pocket... I just left it to dry out in the sun for a day and fired back up no problem...
Goting to record shops like Tower Records, Musicland/Sam Goody, Harmony House, etc to get your music. Most shops had employees that was up on a wide variety of music genres and could give you recommendations. Plus there was the release board. Tuesdays was the shit 'cause that's when all the new shit came out.

Thats one of those things that if you didn’t post, I would’ve never thought about again as long as I live.
My wife had a blue Nokia 8210 and a 3310. I still have both of them in a box in storage and they both still work. I also have a Motorola Timeport T280i in storage that still works.
That sh!t was like magic to me when I was a kid lol
Took me a while to Google but this was my first ever phone, I still got it somewhere... Apparently its a MR602...
Aw shit, my first phone was a DiamondTel Mesa 99X, copped way back in '92.
On that note, you had to be there...for Hooked on Phonics. I actually learned to read from Hooked on Phonics. That, comic books, and the back of football cards were all of my reading material up until about 10 years old.
To add, the era when you had to sneak and get your parents porn stash to see porn at all. Or had to watch Skinemax, fuzzy version if you didn’t have the subscription.
