I’m starting this post by sending greetings from here to my dear, respected friend from Konya, İzzet Öz, who tagged me. Let’s take you to İzzet’s post “Phones I Used” where he tagged me on this topic. Five minutes before publishing my post I learned my dear bro Caner Ergez also tagged me — after looking at his post titled “Phones I Used” you should come back and check mine 🙂

Now let’s roll history back to my primary school years. Back then I didn’t have a phone like everyone else. Until a new phone was bought for my sister and her legendary phone, the Nokia 3310, came to me — and that phone, what a thing it was, can’t tell it all. The snake game in it, a space game whose name I don’t remember, then the melody-making section — especially the Pembe Gül (Pink Rose) melody — really pleased me. And of course the battery that I never needed to charge, that I used for about 3 weeks straight. In short, my first phone, the Nokia 3310, I remember with respect.

My second phone — I had forgotten its name but after a short search online to remember it, I found it. The Nokia 6131. This phone is from the period when I was transitioning to slightly colorful and a more smart-phone section. I started using this phone as a birthday gift from my aunt around 7th-8th grade. The phone where I first started taking photos — my most beloved one — met its end when 3 people stopped me on the way to private tutoring and stole the phone from me. Of course, the build I have now didn’t exist yet. Still 8th grade and not yet grown. Otherwise I wouldn’t have lost that beautiful phone 😀 Jokes aside, if such a situation happens to you, whatever your build, give the phone to the people pulling a knife on you. You don’t know what these kinds of people will do. A 1-2 thousand-lira phone can’t be more important than your life. Sometimes try being smart instead of brave 🙂

For our third phone, going through a brand change, I went to the Samsung E250. During the time I used this phone you can’t say I was much pleased. For some reason I never warmed up to this phone. That’s enough comment for that one.

Instead of this phone, later I gave the Samsung E250 plus a small amount of money and got a second-hand Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. This phone raised my music-listening level, and I had now become a person who listens to music. I got this phone around my 2nd year of high school, and it has a special place for me. The exact opposite of the not-warming-up-to-it I had with the Samsung E250 — with this one, I started seeing it as a piece of myself, and it still holds its spot as a historical artifact at home.

After this phone, in the last year of high school I switched to the Samsung S3, and with an ongoing attachment to it…
