What's the most visually appealing phone you've had so far?
-
My razr. God I miss that phone.
The V3i, I paid full price for that phone when it came out. I modded that thing as much as I possibly could!

Downvote me all you want but I actually liked the Surface Phones.
They were well built, I could multitask nicely, the thin bumpers were nice, it wasn't overly gimmicky. I preferred the divider between the screens.
Downsides...not a flagship in any specs. Also terminated.
I learned about them two weeks before they lost support, wanted one really bad and I'm glad I had only just bought a phone already (Pixel 7a) otherwise I would have bought it only to then look up the update cycle and see it was about to be discontinued.
That being said, reviewers noted at the time that the multitasking on Android was a bit clunky, which may have been an opening for a custom ROM to come in and improve this.

Personally I think the ZenPhone 9 series looked very sleek and cool - especially the in red colour choice.
I'd definitely say the cameras on the Pixel 4a looked unique for their time, but the rest of the phone was very same-same otherwise. I did like the corner cut out for the front camera though.
My current phone (Pixel 7a) has the camera visor, but even then the whole thing is very same-same again.
I have a soft spot for the iPhone 4/4s as I saved two 4s devices from ewaste a couple years ago through work and I personally think it was peak iPhone. The thick premium sandwich of glass with aluminum frame, the weight and heft, it felt stocky and sturdy, it was one handed, the back glass was easily replaceable.
The rest of my phones in history weren't remarkable for their looks though in my opinion. So my answer is the iPhone 4s

I really liked my Siemens SX1

Yes! I had the candy bar version, the Slvr.
It scratched that cyberpunk itch.

My vote goes to LG V10. Not only did it look great, it felt great in hand too.

My first smartphone was the LG Optimus G. It had a textured pattern on the back that made my other phones look plain by comparison.

HTC One M8, hands down no questions. Curved aluminium back, front facing stereo speakers. Fits the hand like a well tailored glove.
There may be fancier looking phones out there, but nothing I've ever seen looked cooler.

Iconic. That flip open/snap shut feeling. Insanely thin at the time.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]HTC Legend, the first smartphone I ever had. I still have several apps from it that I've kept carrying across. Comparing them with the stuff you can get now shows how bad apps and widgets have gotten. Anyhow, the phone design was really Nice.

Sony Xperia S: stylish, curved back.

My old Motorola RAZR from the mid-aughts.

The original HTC Incredible. Comparatively speaking, it was a very modern looking phone. The back was the thing that people noticed. It had a weirdly shaped battery cover back. The physical interface was pretty great and it included an optical cursor or whatever you want to call it.
::: spoiler modern phone gripe
It could be operated with one hand whether you've got big hands or small hands. I hate the fact that everything now is available only in phablet and bigger phablet.
And without user swappable batteries. Ugh.

I wish the current Razr smartphone series was also a book foldable instead of only clamshell foldable

Nokia Lumia series. It is a shame that they did not sell
-
I think it was my old Nokia 6600
I had this. It was super cool.
-
I know it isnt the same form factor but the Titan 2 is coming soon with pre-production units being sent out to people already and estimated release in October.
I had the original titan and will probably get this to try it out but that also means a Titan Slim 2 is a possibility at some point. The key2 that the slim copies is the best phone I ever owned I think!
Yeah. I saw. It's a potential hopeful that a Slim 2 is on the way. This would make my year. Given the success of this lineup, I feel positive about them following through. But it also means a Pocket 2 before a Slim 2 so we are going to wait for awhile.

Adding to this again.
Ericsson T28/T39.

Loved my Lumia 920 back in the day. A phenomenal phone featuring a fun user experience with the Live Tiles. It was a great phone if you didn’t like apps.

LG Chocolate! I had the white one. It did everything I needed, supported custom ringtones, had paid ring back tones (remember those?), played music, etc. The best thing was being able to text with one hand while not having to look at what you’re typing. Hopefully it’s not nostalgia affecting me with this phone, but it ran flawlessly for years before I eventually upgraded to a Motorola Droid back in the day.
I miss fun phones. I can either have a folding slab, a black slab, or a different slab that comes in other colours. 🥲
