What's the most visually appealing phone you've had so far?
-
Nokia Lumia series. It is a shame that they did not sell
Ah the soap boxes
-
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.
The Nokia "fashion" line had some interesting designs
-
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.
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.

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

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.

Gotta be the OnePlus 6.

Ahh, classic style.

I think the iPhone 5s would be the one that fits the question IMO.
Maybe I am a bit biased as I want to get a OnePlus Nord 4 (although I will better wait for the 5th) but I really like its design, and the design is like the last thing I care about a phone
(I always end up setting a cheap screen protector and a cheap case). -

Yes! When I saw this post the Nokia 7380 was instantly where my mind went. I had the exact same phone, it was rad.
I remember at the time it was referred to as a âlipstick styleâ case. Loved that thing. I still have it in a box of old electronics somewhere, been thinking about digging it out and seeing if I could get it working again but assumed it wouldnât on the current cellphone frequencies. I stopped using it when I got the original iPhone at release, so that was 18 years ago I guess. Havenât not had an iPhone of some variation since.
The simplicity of it is what I always loved about the form factor. Yeah, it sucked for texting but maybe I shouldnât be writing long texts nowadays anyway. It was fine if you are just replying with a couple words to a text. That reflective one way mirrored screen, real leather and simplicity of the buttons was a great mix of form and function for me at the time.
Your picture didnât load for me so I am attaching my own;

The OG Motorola Razr was the most aesthetically pleasing phone I ever remember. Shit was like TOS Star Trek's communicator thingy.
