I rocked a Samsung Alias 2 for 4 years before I got an iPhone 5. The e-ink keyboard was awesome how it changed when you flipped the screen open to portrait or landscape.
A Moto Razr I think, my first smartphone was a Palm Centro.
Moto Razr in silver was my first phone ever! Loved the design of it!
I had a pink Moto SLVR L7
Same! I’m pretty sure that was also my smallest phone, before they started going the other direction.
I had the same model but in black. I still have it somewhere.
Does BlackBerry count as a dumb phone? I have a hard time calling it a smart phone.
Alias 2 and I still have it packed away in a box.

Motorola KRZR
God that phone sucked. It was so slow. I always wondered why Gameboy could be so damned fast, yet a phone with a much more powerful soc struggled just to bring up my contacts? They needed video game devs making the phone OS.
I also had the Alias 2. Great phone. Technically I still have it but it is inactivated.
I still have a flip phone. Nokia piece of shit on Verizon. Works well for voice but it’s shit for anything else.
Motorola Pebl.
I had one and it was great. I rode a scooter everywhere at the time, and I could pull this out of my pocket, let it spring open and stick it up inside my helmet for some easy one hand to hands free calls.
Pretty sure this was my last feature phone as well. I liked it. I probably still have it floating around in a drawer somewhere.
Motorola A1200, black one. Not exactly dumb phone but it wasn’t Android either. I love that device. Sadly they were never cheap, now days included. They are full Linux phone with GSM modules in kernel and no restrictions what so ever, so they are super popular with GSM hackers.
I had the James Bond edition of Sony Ericsson C902. The camera was nice but the UI had frame rate issues. I came from a brown SE K770i which was buttery smooth. From C902 I went to Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, my first touchscreen phone and first Android where I learned about apps, OS updates, fustom ROMs, etc. What a fantastic phone that was.
How dumb? OG Motoroloa RAZR V3 > Nokia N96 before I had an iOS or Android device.
Nokia C5-00.
I was late to the cell phone game and never got a “nice” dumb phone. I had a crappy TracFone. Reception was okay. Texting was torture. Bought an HTC Droid around 2010-2011 and never looked back.
Newegg used to sell this one dumb phone for like $12. Completely unbranded garbage but it made calls and did sms.
My brother used to lose his phone or drop it in the toilet constantly. We had like 3 or 4 of that crappy phone just because he kept doing stupid stuff.
