I'm a Millennial and I'm so happy that Gen Z wants to bring back the good old flip phones I'm so excited about this❤️ social media is very bad.

@doctorplague1789 Год назад

Trying to earn some money to finally buy one. I'm so excited :')

@bluezy710 Год назад

It's a lie from the media. Literally none of us are doing that. It's literally the same girl hired to say this on all the shows.

My childhood ❤ that's why I'm buying one

Social media will be freaking out soon when users for social media is decreasing.

As a millennial who was born in the 90s I am really liking these nostalgic times.

@nahfamnope Год назад

Oooh yes! I remember being out on the town with just a regular digital camera. I had a Sony Cybershot, and we were limited to the little view finder to know if we got a decent shot. No standing around and editing and posting to the internet. I also remember 35mm film cameras too. What an even better era that was. We actually took pictures and hoped they came out nicely. The trips to the drug store to drop off our film. The waiting period, the anticipation! Gathering around your friends and family when you finally got your pictures back and rejoicing over your memories that could be days, months, or even years old depending on how often you took pictures. I’m not sure if I’m anti-smart phone, but I’m definitely anti social media. I remember the days when I had to be socially creative… now I get to just bury my face in my phone when I don’t wanna talk lol

My dad is ahead of the trend, he uses a flip phone.

@thenormalone6753 7 месяцев назад

Also a simple phone would have a very inexpensive data-plan. That’s one of the coolest things about this in my opinion

@jusletursoulglobaby Год назад

umm... flip phones were not out in the 90s. those didnt pop off until early 2000. in the 90s you had that brick Nokia phone that did. no. flip. and never broke and cost like $3000000 per month. now I know Gen X knows that... why we letting these ppl pretend the 90s was more advanced than it was?

There were flip phones in the 90’s that didn’t fold in half like the ones we just saw. They were bulkier back then and the foldable part only covered the keypad.

Hello I'm a Japanese essayist. The name is Mikan oshidari. I have published a book called [I want to stop being a slave to my smartphone]. I was addicted to my smartphone. But now I'm using a feature phone (flip phone). It's all about mental health. It was hard to stare at the screen for so long, being dominated by social media and unnecessary information. I was truly a slave to my smartphone. Now I use a feature phone (flip phone) and it's comfortable. I'm tired of using my smartphone, so I love feature phones (flip phones). But it's sad that feature phones are often ridiculed. I'm also worried that it may no longer be produced. I'm glad that you are communicating about the feature phone in this way. I hope people will reaffirm the goodness of feature phones. It's not that smartphones are bad, but feature phones are necessary for mental health. Please feel free to post again♥

@tthatonegirl2950 Год назад

I was so excited when I got a flip phone that didn’t have an antenna and had a camera ❤ the Nokia was the shit tho they need to make phones as durable as they used to be now they break so easily

@MrMaximino92 Год назад

Oh my God all nostalgic with selective memory: old feature phones were as expensive as modern smartphones, got people hooked on sms and internet in the 00s (yes there was already an epidemic of phone zombies back, always on their phones), and most of them were breaking so easily.

@user-ge2es2bp2x Год назад

they didn't really switch though, only for a short time/intermittently. Also the phone they're showing has whatsapp, facebook etc. It's cool that they're doing it but calling it changing to using an og flip phone is a little disengenous

@darnellmahomes15 Год назад

Im gonna go back to my flip phone right away

@TheThreeCount Год назад

not a flip phone fans since the "flex" was constantly expensive and cost much time to teardown a flip phone. still have "STRONK" candybar Sony Ericsson K750 with 3G network (yeah, it's still work) and i used it for weekend. even video record was so bad (15fps?) but the battery life will lasted a week.

@clove8763 Год назад

Welp, you know what they say-- Eventually, one will get tired of eating too much candy and our smartphones have indeed become our limitless candy!!! I'm not flipping back to the flip phone tho! 😁

@Nxpo_ Год назад

Mfs will never experience running out of minutes and can only call out free on nights and weekends. Or gotta press 1 button over and over until you get to the letter you want while sending a text 😂

@dlazyace9116 Год назад

Bruh. They act like there's no internet on the filp phones. Bruh. Half my class was using flip phones texting or either on MySpace(mobile version) and FB. And boy, did our parents get mad because the internet did cost us.

@philthomas436 4 месяца назад

To those who are saying there were no flip phones in the 90s...remember the Motorola Startac? It was the first flip phone and was introduced to the market in 1996.

@RBR-lo2ei Год назад

The 90s? We didn't have flip phones in the 90s. They came along in the early 2000s. In the 90s we had bar phones. Time will tell if this flip phone adoption is merely a fad amongst the GenZers. Hopefully it isn't a fad. I have an iPhone SE but the phone I actually use is a flip phone. All I want is a good voice phone. Something I don't have to charge every other day!

@AnaJots Год назад

The first prototype of the 2000s flip phone came out in 96, wasn't as digital, and obviously most didn't by it yet.

The Motorola StarTAC, first released on January 3, 1996, is often assumed to be the first ever clamshell (flip) mobile phone. I used mine in 90's I don't know where all your asses at.

Touch screens are a waist of money when the screen shatter the phone no more good after spending 300$ or 400$ for a phone

@darnellmahomes15 Год назад

Look how many people spend hundreds on a touch screen they have issues with it it really upsets me just thinking about it

@alvinator5203 Год назад

Why is this host holding and asking questions she should already know the answer to? They’re flip phones….she probably went through a dozen by herself.

@cramsa Год назад

My first phone was in 2000… a green screen flip phone… it was actually way more reliable than my iPhone and now I switched back to the flip phones… damn iPhones too glitchy, one slip of your hand and some funky thing pops up… can’t stand it anymore.

@deekay6526 4 месяца назад

I like texting on a smart phone. If it weren't for that, I would switch. You could just take all the apps off of your smart phone.

@MrZZooh Год назад

How are flip phones from the 90s? 90s had pagers. Flip phones are from mid 2000s. I had a flip phone all the way until 2018 and considering how much time I waste on my smart phone and the dependence I have developed to it, it is really not worth all the convenience it offers me. I was a lot happier before I switched to smart phones.

I posted the same thing today. Should have read more comments (like yours) before doing so. We had bar phones in the 90s. My wife had a Nokia phone in 1998 (not a flip) and my first cell phone was a Nokia 3390 (North American variant of the 3310) that I bought in 2000. Flips started appearing in the 2000s in huge numbers.

@kay5306 8 месяцев назад

Under 30… 😂 if you are at least 22 years old you had a flip phone. most of the older gen z had flip or sliding phones going into high school/end of middle school. Especially if you had an older sibling. At 26 now most of us didn’t get a real smart phone till we were 16/17. Same for my sister whos 3 years younger than me she had a flip phone til she got to high school. So the real question is if you’re under 20 do you know what a flip phone is 😂 and obviously they’re discovering them now

@elizabethpeterson1644 Год назад

I used to have a flipped phone almost 9 years ago. I rather not go back towards it. I loved using my iPhone 14 in purple. I remembered using scrunches during the 90’s when my hair was longer and it took me a long time to grow my hair long. I didn’t get a cellphone in the late 90’s which was almost the end of that decade. That cellphone wasn’t a flip phone.

@darnellmahomes15 Год назад

Touch screens are for hackers to track your moves these carriers dont care about the saftey all the care about is over price a glass for scammers and hackers

@darnellmahomes5036 Год назад

Or a iphone for 800$ soon you drop it 800$ gone down the drain

@Siranoxz 11 месяцев назад

I have the feeling this is all short lived, yes as a millennial i´ve been living through the 90´s and experienced the flip phone. Gen Z probably having coming to a conclusion that they wished they experienced the 90´s and what that brought to the world. And Millennials would have wished we could have experienced the 80´s.
