What's the most visually appealing phone you've had so far?

Imagine typing a text message with that
Utter nightmare. It doesn’t even lit the available letters in the dark. It’s just bad

I agree. I realise it is a niche market, keyboard phones, but there are still people out there that want them and they seem to be hooking into that market.
Their software isnt the best but I'm hoping in time it will become more refined along with the keyboards getting better with each iteration. BlackBerry had a lot more practice by the time of the passport and key devices so here's hoping at least one company will fill that gap left behind.
There is a solid Lineage (build) that is floating around that is regularly updated. Been too lazy to do up my phone but now I have incentive.

Personally I think the ZenPhone 9 series looked very sleek and cool - especially the in red colour choice.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I loved my Nokia 7380 art deco phone. It had a screen hidden behind a mirror surface, a rotary dial instead of buttons and even a little fabric flap like a pair of jeans or something.
It was so widely different to anything else out there. I wish it still worked on contemporary wireless services, but alas.
It was a pain to text on but with voice messages becoming a thing, it didn't matter too, too much. I would probably go back if I could.

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.
Microsoft gave up too soon. Android was also shit at the start, it only became good around 4.0

I know there were a few custom ROMs that took advantage of some of the blackberry apps n such for the original Titan series of phones but j could never get the boot loader to unlock on my original titan so I was always stuck with what they supplied which was fairly lacklustre and was what ultimately pushed me away from the phone.

I absolutely loved the look and feel of the essential ph-1. The ceramic back felt great in the hand (the few times I dared carrying it without a case). The size was perfect for me, and I personally found the notch less distracting than the hole punch camera.

Nokia Lumia series. It is a shame that they did not sell
Ah the soap boxes

The Nokia "fashion" line had some interesting designs

Well, if you ever fancy another go, there is a Discord community that helps with such situations. That is how I am planning on de-Googling, once I stop being lazy.

My sister also had a Siemens M55, pretty fun phone at the time.

Dual slide helio ocean, t9 and hardware keyboard on different slide outs

And, yeah, I used to use one like that.
And you could knock a motherfucker out with one! Like in 12 Monkeys where Bruce Willis beats a pimp to death.

The discord community is where I was getting all my information from. I'm sure it has moved on a bit now as this was a few years ago and whilst I do still have the phone I'll probably wait to get the new one and then I'll play around.
Ive been running graphene the last 3 years now and I don't want to go back to google so once I get the titan 2 I'm going to try my best to get some form of Linux going on it. I fucking hate this touchscreen though so I can't wait!

Motorola's Moto X, with the back being made of bamboo.

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.
The HTC UI was also pretty cool, as far as I remember

Samsung Galaxy S3. It was my first phone with a large touchscreen; everything before that was a flip phone, or one where half the phone slides away to reveal a full keyboard.

Ahh, classic style.
