What Was The First Smartphone? 

Now phone have three buttons 😂. Prediction was near but not accurate.

iooi it was a joke because of the iphone 7

iFive. just like shitphone 7

Daniel Covey *iPhone 8 to 10

Dmendes No. He's right. 7-10

Zenochrillium no chance! 😨

ikr hahaha

Most 00s phones were small.

Still tho, R.I.P Steve Jobs he will be missed, don't make fun of a deceased person's technology

... What about nazi tech?

SAY WHA? True

If I understand your desires correctly - and correct me if I'm wrong - I think I got a cheaper, yet more efficient alternative for you: a phone, a piece of paper and a pencil :)

You can also use a tablet + phone or put your phone in speaker mode

nd you can use it for self defense as a brick

I want that so bad

its shitter than we have now

shune84 no shit Sherlock

I think the point he is trying to make is that YOU are the one that is stupid.

OriginalNeoSupreme The only thing you need to do is replace the period with a comma.

Makshogun YT I don't think you understand

it was expensive as fuk so no one cared back then

I claim it's not about people being ready but products, despite some good ideas, weren't ready, had bad flaws and/or bad marketing. They had critical shortcomings like for example early smartphones didn't use capacitive touchscreens but resistive which in practice weren't very good. Smartphones were targeted to business people which is limited target. Apple managed to make actually functional product without critical shortcomings, had hype and all marketing power and targeted wide audience.

xTJRsAsEAx Or may be more

Tihomir Hristov Sounds great :D

***** exactly. Or just teleport if u need to speak with someone

Tihomir Hristov Totally!! xD

***** I'd rather not have those stuff... its scary even to think to have a device implanted inside your brain lol

You mean unsettling?

No, I meant gentle and smart. You may have replied wrong comment.

nikoli gogle No surely you mean unsettlingly fake.

Go home, you are a 9th grader and a junkee or maybe also an illegal child.

nikoli gogle Based off smoke and mirrors i presume?

Technology Spotlight o rlly Dr. Phil?

I was using windows phone before the iphone came out.

Yes, i-mate with Windows CE

Are u normal

Hsehs Z'roc Thanks mate, I am aware. I wrote the reason for the Walmart video in the description: "A few of you would be wondering what happened to "How BIG is Walmart?" The Audio turned out pretty messed up so I'm going to fix it and re-upload when I get back home (I'm still away in Europe) Cheers." Pretty annoying but I want to make sure the videos uploaded on this channel are of good quality :)

ColdfusTion thanks mate. I don't wanna miss any of your videos and so was curious. I also didn't see the description before commenting. Anyways you have a grt time in your journey. Cheers!

ColdfusTion Perhaps you could post the link, and if people was eager enough (as I am) to use a proxy to Nepal, they could watch it.

Hsehs Z'roc hi bro glad to know u are also from nepal

+ColdfusTion I love your videos there great 😎

ikr

Bobby T. the price must be a factor

Back in the 90s a phone was only for calls and texts so that was really just a gimmick really.

Rubbish the Palm Treo was the first true, usable smartphone no question.

+Kevin Arnold Simon personal computers didnt have internet.

cale devers RU-vid works well on 1G :P

Kevin Arnold i dont think they had internet at all.

cale devers I'm writing this reply with one right now!

+Kevin Arnold I'm watching this on an Apple Performa because I've got no self-respect.

+n0ti5 This video was about the first smartphone so the communicator wasn't necessary. But if you like, I've already covered it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RQEn19symz0.html

And the Palm Treo line of phones with colour screen using a stylus and with a camera. I had a Treo 650 in 2005 colour screen, stylus for touch, camera, e-mail, bluetooth, SD card (not micro), I think Internet but it was over ten years ago I forget. I still have the phone too it powers on but the screen has a large discoloured area on it. After that 2007 I got a Nokia N95 that was a nicer phone by leaps it was amazing just two years later the advancement in camera and features.

n0ti5

@ David Hughes, yeah i wasn't that cool. In that time i was using the 6682 I had a 2gb MMC (multi media card) in it. Had a decent 1.3mp camera for its time, it had a specific nokia headphone proprietary plug its sucked that it had no 3.5mm plug jack. And i'm pretty sure some jackass at the airport stole it and i bet they where never able to use it because of the weird plug. I bought some bluetooth headphones but they only worked in mono i was upset about that because i used my phone alot during that time to listen to music. That was a great phone i also upgraded to n95 after that, then n8 then 808 then n9. after that i cried because nokia died.

Apple gets a lot more credit than they deserve as Nokia,blackberry,and HTC all were shipping smart phones years before the iphone. The only innovation the iphone brought was dropping nearly all of the physical buttons. In someways this was a step backwards in usability.

Bilbo_Gamers yes but the first iPhone was 500$ and this pda was 1000$

chedder140 Yeah, but the pda came out 2 decades beforehand.

Cause the pda was made in Japan by Mitsubishi. And the Iphone in some shitty Foxcon factory.

Bilbo_Gamers iphone was released in 2007 not 2008

We own a lot to IBM.

Is just a cartoon

Mine was a…..something Star! Here in Fairbanks Alaska it was big money. Why I’m looking through these videos, looking for that phone.

Ok m8, but would u use wifi or 5g? Hahahahahah

@@thur9368 The S7 doesn't have 5g capabilities.

You stupid fuck, it wouldn't work for shit back then. Just be this futuristic useless toy.

@@tqsuited ur the dumb fuck that can't handle a saying

I feel like people, especially the inventor would be optimistic.

I'd answer with Handspring Visor but as it ran Palm Os and handspring was eventually bought out by Palm it might be redundant.

Jeffery McLean I had the slim aluminium handspring visor with the slide on cellphone back-pack. browsing and email in my pocket!

thiruvetti 34 peeps because haven't kayaks haven't

He also forgot the Symbian UIQ series (Sony Ericsson p800 up to w950 Ang g900), which was immensely popular and which did everything the first gen iPhone did plus more (such as video recording and digital zoom on photos). Oh, and Windows Mobile, also very popular. Then there is Palm. This video is an IBM Simon vs first gen Apple iPhone video comparison passed of as "history of smartphones".

Hhaahaha, people who are saying that, dont know anything about technology!! But the Only Argument of iPhone victims is "it was the First, without iPhone no other smartphones would exist" bullshit.

***** will i guess we would've stayed in Symbian windows phone old operating system if the iphone didn't come out so yea , you gotta give credit to the iphone , am an android user

farex aldo But the iphone is just a copy of the Samsung F700 so that is null and void. :) Plus Blackberry had been around for many years as THE smartphone to have (it was the only official phone leaders in most countries were allowed to use...)

Defensive Wounds The f700 is just a slidy phone with a touch screen. Besides, everyone copied the phone Coldfustion showed.

Defensive Wounds but no one cared about those phone because they did not do anything right everyone hated them because they were not reliable they had to many mistakes , plus dont forget the i-mate it was the best

Ronak Dhakan S40, S60 those are found on Nokia's phones before it's fall

Elvis S dont forget the porn. that i want to wacth porn whenever i want. lol

Play mobile legend on it hahahahaa😂😂😂

matsv201 I had an Ericsson R380 in 2001 - literally the worst phone I ever had. Compatible with nothing, apps were almost useless due to tiny capacity and limited functionality, and it crashed daily and would frequently switch itself off. But it was very definitely a touch (stylus) screen smart phone way ahead of its time! It was so terrible though I went back to dumb phones 'til I got an iPhone 4 almost ten years later.

waz9188 ". Compatible with nothing," Of cause it was not, it was the first one of its kind, there was nothing it could be comparability to.... well that is not really true, it could use EPOC software, and there was a bit of that. But you have to install it manually, there was no app store. I never did have a problem with the phone crashing. Did you update the system? Of cause the R380 was really the first of its kind. The year after was both the Handspring Treo that was based of palm and there for have quite a lot of aps. But more over the P800 that had a real web browser and GPRS support My point is that the R380 may not be perfect, but it was the first smartphone that actually sold any significant number that was similar to how they work today. People tend to forget that the original iPhone had no 3G and a low resolution screen. Compare the P800 with the original iphone it was really just a upgrade from 320 pixel scrren to a 480 pixel screen.. in 5 years. The iphone was slimer and lighter.. by 20 grams. The P800 had quite a bit more battery, that was exchangeable and also expandable memory as well as a front cover plate. Yea more memory and faster processor, but its really just because it was relised later. People tend to forget, the original iphone was horrible before it got multitasking, 3G more ram and a decent number of aps. There was also a few older smartphones that sold well like the Nokia 9000 communicator that was the first smartphone of any type that sold in any reasonable numbers.But it was of the previus notebook type layout. I actually got a Revo psion and a Ericsson 880 back in 1998 that could browse the web with a wireless connection, but of cause it was two devices. Also there where no GPRS so it was not really that practical.

There's nothing wrong with showing some history before getting to the main subject for context.

Endelig Gnist 3 mins 45 seconds

Endelig Gnist. takes more talent to be a jackass

yup, still better then a note 7.... BOOM!

Note 7 was good, aside from the explody boom-boom thing. iPhone 7 has major (intended) design flaws.

Soon we'll be laughing at all the smartphones we have today

Bak! than*

That's why I unsubscribed from this channel ages ago. The guy is too in love with Apple and that bias shows through and ruins just about anything trying to be presented. Like this video. The video is well made, and bothers to try and present a fact, but then ignores a huge chunk of information to give some pointless further glorification toward Apple. Like we're supposed to just conveniently believe nothing happened from the actual first touch screen "smart" phone by IBM until Apple came along in 2007? Like you mentioned lots of resistive screen PDA's and such existed throughout those 13 years. I mean this could have been a really interesting educational video. But yeah, skips over lots to give Apple further glory.

You good?

STiCKxaH Not to be a buzzkill. but that argument holds in every era, the period is just getting shorter. 50 years ago we could say the same about television (that was magical at the time). 100 years ago we could say that about telephones (talking with someone on the other side of the country?!?). Hell, even electricity. We've also had that transition in transportation with cars, trains... etc. Not to mention the amazing insights of Newton and many other scientists who figured out so many important things hundreds of years ago, or the Greek who laid the foundation of mathematics thousands of years ago. The Egyptians who pioneered architecture and construction techniques... Not to mention the revolutions caused by the first civilizations , or even earlier, the first farmers. All of these people in history had things to be proud of. They've all been able to look back and think that they are oh-so advanced compared to those who came before them. It is amazing indeed how far we've come, but now imagine what could be possible in the next 1000 years. Keep in mind, science really only has existed for 400 years. Everything we figured out before that was a lucky guess. Only recently have we really been able to _predict_ the future using the scientific method. We're only a small link in a very long chain. People in the future will laugh at our technology just like we laugh at carvings in stone tablets. Soo my point is... relax. Have some perspective. Let's not feel privileged for the technology we have, let's instead focus on pushing that technology as far as we can for the generations to come. It's our duty to be a strong link in the chain.

Niosus totally nailed it .

err • Ease of communication (How else would you find your fiends in a massive crowded city filled with Hundreds of Thousands of people?) Call them or, as i spend more time with them, there is a good chance i know where they will be aka there routine. • Educational Benefits - Did this video Educate you? - I certainly learnt something from this video - read a book you can learn a lot more. Or go find something out yourself, better the human race rather than just absorbing things.... • And many more - ditto Can you tell i was around before the internet / smart phones were so mainstream

You're like Shaun from the institute

hahaha because that was you definetly

STOP SHOWING UP EVERWHERE WTF WHO ARE YOU I SEE YOU SO MANY TIMES

another justin Y. wannabe lol

I was 6 in 1992, sorry :-/

+STcraft You're forgetting the home button on the iPhone, which has always been a hardware button. I was always a fan of hardware keyboards, but I guess I was one of the only ones. The Keyboard on the first Droid was my favorite.

Zoran Zivanovic Except they didn't invent anything, Apple got Foxconn to put together a few parts from Samsung and Texas instruments and called it an iPhone. Meanwhile Nokia was already doing the same thing just in a different form factor.

Grymyrk possibly the stupidest logic I've read in a while, you win the internet today! 😂😂😂

Zoran Zivanovic What logic? I'm telling you what happened....

Grymyrk exactly, what logic?. I'm not getting drawn into this.

Zoran Zivanovic Because your argument makes no sense.

Perfected? I think that's highly subjective.

Brad I don't think your opinion is valid.

JetpacksWasYes Elaborate?

"perfected it" oh my god 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Man, just stop 😂😂😂😂😂

Samsung =/= Android. It's like saying Toshiba is Windows.

+MrBlueSnowman I like android. You know the better company. The one thats actually working with other companies to improve the mobile Industry instead of cutting off the other companies and thinking there better. The one that has more than 2* the devices that apple has. The one that has to deal with apple copying their ideas. I could go on.

+Tristan Hollis I like your debating skill. You brought up some good points and I have nothing against any os. If it makes you feel any better too, I like android as well (but maybe in the future it'll be a bit smoother) :)

MrBlueSnowman Ya android is a little trippy but they patched most of the stuff and have the minor problems to fix.

+Tristan Hollis I couldn't agree more!
