- As this episode of "When Phones Were Fun" hits the server, Samsung has just announced its Galaxy Note20 device family, the tenth generation of its stylus-centric smartphone first announced in 2011. The subject of today’s throwback is not that first Galaxy Note … but rather, an 18-year-old forerunner that folds like the Galaxy Z Flip; packs a stylus like the Galaxy Note; and despite its age, runs a true smartphone OS. The year is 2002, and the phone is the Samsung SPH-i500 - a pioneering smartphone from back in the days when Palms would fold!

Dear Michael,
You don't make reviews,
You make mini-stories,
And we love it...
Exactly! Couldn't have said it better myself
Legit, the writing is so good. His passion for tech (in my opinion) outweighs some of the bigger tech channels out there. I am tuned in every time i see a notification from MrMobile.
@@Jaiysful Often times in media wether that be music, movies, UA-camr's etc etc, the more underrated they are, the more entertaining, high quality and all around more enjoyable they are in my opinion. For example: Beyonce is the biggest music star but i don't like her music and think she's overrated as all hell, bland pop music but she's gigantic, where as a small local band or musician who only pulls lets say 100k views/listens a song, maybe not even that much, is way more enjoyable and fun to listen to. You can tell that they put more work into their projects because they care more than the big rich dudes who can chuck anything out there and get millions of views and dollars. That's why there's so much crap out there. The small guys like our friend Mr.Mobile are where it's at.
Yeah, was just thinking the other day, I watch his stuff that doesn't concern my needs/wants because its entertaining, I do find myself picking up useful knowledge though... More importantly he genuinely makes the effort to listen and engage with his audience!
agreed
I absolutely love this series. The anecdotes from the past that Michael sprinkles is an additional touch I love.
Agreed
Ikr
This should have been a youtube original series
Same, I worked at Best Buy and sold these things. The Palma and treks were the iPhones of the day. Not as popular of course but so cool.
agreed
Who else gets a warm, comfortable feeling with a smile on their face while watching these videos? Thank you for these Michael. Even if I've never used a certain old phone i love watching videos about old retro phones, it's amazing how fun and cool looking these phones are, crazy how far we've came. Everyone is loving this series so much, you've struck gold AND you're at 998k subs, you are finally so close to a million, well deserved my friend. Your videos are literally the best, you deserve every bit of success. Much love from Australia.
999k right now :)
Proud to be part of the early squad before the 1mil mark 😍
so true🙂
100% agree
.
and i think.. not him.. but it is us who struck gold.. in finding him🖒🤗
This series helped jog my memory to my two favorite fun phones; the Pantech Pursuit and the Palm Pre Plus. Now I have to pause Michael's videos so that I can smile about my own experiences.
The "next generation came with mp3" statement is what made me love Windows Mobile. You didn't need to wait for a next generation. All you needed was a codec nicely packed in a .cab file and off you go. That's how my HTC P3600 would play the very legitimate .avi or .mpg films I'd convert to a lower resolution so that they could fit on the SD card.
This has become by far my favourite UA-cam series. The way you present it with love and wonder is much needed in the cynical age
Congratulations in advance for 1million subscribers man...u deserve it all..keep making these unique videos
I am obsessed with early mobile phones. They truely are the golden age of phones in terms of fun factor. At 3:32 where you thought back fondly of your techy memories I had the funniest thought -- imagine in 10 or 20 years someone having a UA-cam channel just like yours and doing this series with the same jovial nostalgia ... They'd just be going through a tonne of same same looking flat slate phones lol 😂
Thissssssss
@@aditjindal uP
@Amit Shan also apple... for making the first product that was a smash hit and nothing truly innovating after that.
Not gonna lie this series brings back so much memories because a great glance at the past , makes me just that little bit happier for the future
It started with just one "When Phones Were Fun" video, then i found myself binge watching the series. Now i anxiously anticipate a new episode every time
Same here!!!
Congratulations in advance for 1million subscribers man...u deserve it all..keep making these unique videos
This series is absolutely awesome! And no other person than Michael Fisher lives it like that!
Really enjoying this series. Really brings me back in time. I was a child during this era and there were some wicked cool ads I'd see now and again watching Wheel of Fortune followed by Jeopardy every weeknight. I appreciate the trips you take me on.
This is why you are MrMobile and not a random tech reviewer
YO, THAT "RINGER ONE" SLAPPPS!!!
In all seriousness, I'm here for the eventual Palm Pre and Pre 2 episodes. And maybe the Palm Pixi, too? 😁
Talking about Palm, you can never left out the Treo series, it was benchmark setting in terms of smartphone physical thumboard
I love Graffiti!! I could write faster on my Handspring Visor Prism than I could on paper. I even loaded it on my first few Android phones!
The glyph system made total sense at the time. Phones were not powerful enough to do true handwriting recognition, so Palm made you draw the letters in a way the phone could recognize.
I thought I was the only one (re: Graffiti writing speed). And when Palm enabled the entire screen of their Zire 71 to be a writing surface (left side letters, right side numbers), I'd wind up using Graffiti in lieu of my normal handwriting, which led many a coworker to think I'd suffered a stroke or something....
@@thomasmallory4629 For the longest time I'd write Graffiti on paper. :)
Yeah, same. I had a bunch of Palms in the late 90s and early 2000s and grafitti was just so quick and reliable once you adapted to it. I still kinda miss it.
Anybody could learn to write graffiti fast and reliably in an hour. I thought it was brilliant and still do, I have a graffiti app on my Note 5. I don't use it, because now I'm a Swype maniac.
I still think that Palm OS was a beautiful usable system that rivals anything in 2020. There weren't that many variations but they weren't needed, because Palm OS was just so perfectly done. You never had to "learn" anything, because everything was completely obvious. And my Centro had still and video photography. And a web browser that worked fine for simple net searches.
I miss it.
Ha, and once you adapted to the Grafitti, it destroys your real handwriting when using pen and paper!!
that Kyocera 7135 was a powerhouse of its time, I destroyed a college exam where I have to calculate weather data to design a drainage system, usually it takes almost 3 hours to finish using scientific calculator, I fizzled past it in a little more than an hour because I preloaded all the formula to the spreadsheet app (DataViz' Docs-To-Go). Back then in Indonesia, smartphones and PDAs were still Star Trek gadgets for most people, I've got mine bought 2nd hand from a gadget lover community.
That's a cool old smartphone, never heard of it before. Here's another cool suggestion Michael: Nokia N90. It was a smartphone that was way ahead of it's time with its almost "Retina" 259 ppi display in 2005 - 5 years before the first Retina iPhone 4. It was truly sharp back then, even passable by today's standards. It was also among one of the first devices capable of selfies with its turning 2 megapixel camera module.
It was the device that got me started in photography and I'll always fondly remember it.
Nokia N series was something else..once in a tv show I saw a person win an award for making a 30min film using (I think) this N90. Nokia's were so good, making something new every year.
I had this phone for years and loved it. I had the charging station, extended battery packs, the leather cases.. Man. I loved this phone.
I had a Treo 680 and LOVED it!! I remember it being so futuristic and cutting edge. I got really, really good at Grafiti since I'd started the "Palm Life" with an m105, but having a full qwerty keyboard was so much better. I still have my 680, and it still works... even after being ran over 3 times (over the course of the last year I used it) by an Ambulance. I was an EMT at the time and used it for GPS navigation, pharmacological lookups and of course wasting time while waiting for a call to drop. Space Trader was my favorite Palm OS game. It helped pass many, many hours of downtime.
This series is so nice because it brings me back to the good old days and allows me to forget all the crazy stuff going on, great installment as usual.
I don't know exactly why this specific series of yours feels so satisfying to watch!! Please keep this series up! ❣️
Michael, thank you those these videos on classic phones! When I was a kid in the early-2000s, I was obsessed with phones from this era. I'm sure everyone at Best Buy's mobile section thought I was strange, but who cares! Phones back then were so cool.
I too was one of the people who always ducked into the phone store at my local outlet center to see what was new! The Sprint staff never seemed to notice or care, even though I spilled so much cash in that place. Ha.
Love this series of old fun phones you got going. I think you are great,. Keep it up man.
Dude, Ringer 1 could straight-up be an iconic rock riff. I think it's a banger
Wow. I mias these phones so much! Everything you truly needed and nothing that you didn’t. There was no need for a setting to “remind” you that you’ve been in your phone too long that day. It’s amazing to see how far our devices have come though.
This series warms my heart, makes me understand the tech of yester year and appreciate today's advancement all while being immersed in a beautifully shot, wonderfully edited, soothing narrative which wins my heath
A true captain the call you SIR!!
I absolutely love this series!!! I’m getting all the nostalgic feels 🥰
"In days of old when phones were good and varied from the rectangular, the Venue was a smartphone some found to be quite spectacular"
Wait, wrong video
Bahahahaaa. Is that ... wait, was that me? Pocketnow?
@@TheMrMobile Yep ua-cam.com/video/G4hI0cPMwmk/v-deo.html
Ohh boy! UA-cam's algorithm, i didn't know that mr mobile used to work with pocketnow. 😀
@@dylann3230 Man, I craved for that phone. Brings back lot of memories, and cleared up any doubts I had about whether or not Michael had always been a philosophical poet. He sure was
I like about MrMobile is that unlike other reviewers, where the product is occupying less than ½ the screen and most we see is the guy talks and talks, me me and me.
You done a terrific job of putting the product in focus, and when you do appear, you are showcasing thr usage of it, while keeping the time on yourself in the frame low.
Keep up the good work bro
This has always been the channel’s intent; thank you for noticing!
This time I am also here. STAY MOBILE MY FRIENDS"🙂
So jaao 😂
Congratulations Michael, even though your first million subscribers may come as an Android update , i wish your next million comes to you as an iOS update.
IOS may not even be around by the time he gets 2 mill
Yayyyyy - Congratzz. 1 Million. This milestone was long over due . Happy to see this.
Michael,
You are just 1.000 subscribers away of the 1M!
I am excited to watch your 1M special! You are the best tech reviewer so far!!
This series is amazing. I never knew this phone existed!
its obvious to not know them cause there were no yutubers to unbox them back then
@@AMITAVABERA-ig3no ok
Me: oh nice Michael finally uploaded a video about the Note 20. Michael: *talks about retro phone* haha still appreciate the content!
Note20 is still on a FedEx truck, unless they're lying about that again (which they probably are). Anyway, this is more fun.
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Gotchya, looking forward to hearing your take. Your opinion on it might help me pull the trigger. Great video as always!
These nostalgic gadgets... bring back pleasant memories 😃 keep it up!
I would love for this series to continue, I love these time capsules of the past.
Man I just love this series. That is all, have a great day everyone!
I think i had a motorola at the time... It had snake🤩🤣
Did Nokia license Snake? I feel like that was an exclusive game, wasn't it?
@@TheMrMobile many phone manufacturers copied it and just changed the name to something else
I had an Ericsson T20e at the time. Packman on a tiny screen ftw.
@@jjoriordan2670 You ain't lived till you've played Pac Man on a Pureness.
@@TheMrMobile That would be terrible.
This is my favorite series! I love how it brings me back to when mobile phones were really becoming popular and they were all cooler.
Great work as always, Mr. Mobile! This is honestly one of my favorite series of yours because I get to take a look at the tech that was around when I was a kid which pioneered what we have today. Great work
I love Graffiti!! ❤️❤️❤️
06:57
I died at "No, it wasn't a business lunch."
One million subscribers is right around the corner. I'm excited for you!
Hands down absolutely the best phone UA-camr out there, not to sound like a fangirl but you are my role model. If I could ever be a UA-camr I'd aspire to be this good
Yes the phones were fun but were they fun to use?
Not ... not once Graffiti got involved.
@@TheMrMobile has a phone with graffiti...I'd say the only interface worse than that would be buttons on a fax machine
@@TheMrMobile WHAT?!?!?! Graffiti was BRILLIANT! It was simple, easy to learn, fast, and very reliable.
@@aleksandartokin6914 So says someone that never really used it. I used it for years and thought it was AMAZING! If you told me it was comparable to a fax machine to my face, I'd PUNCH you in yours!
@@itsROMPERS... okay what's better, buttons you know what are doing but refuse to do it or a set of symbols you have to learn to use it properly
one clasic:"v
You are classic meme bruh xD
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH MAH DAWG
One understands the passion Michael MrMobile has for phones with the way he vividly remembers the names of each phone he used to own even a decade (and a half) ago!
Almost 1 million subscribers...
You deserve this gift, Mr. Mobile!!!
And I am part of it!!!!!
Mr Mobile is putting out the absolute best quarantine content. It feels like you found your groove and I am here for every video dude.
Omgdness that startup tone literally made me burst into tears. Boy the nostalgia
Michael could you be able to give us more throwback Sprint and Sanyo devices 🥺
I love this kind of videos. It brings back all the lovely memories. Spending hours in the electronic department of a Kaufhof (German pendant of Walmart), playing with those devices and dreaming about how one day, I will be able to afford one of those things.
Technology and nostalgia :)
Really enjoying this series. Really brings me back in time. I was a child during this era and there were some wicked cool ads I'd see now and again watching Wheel of Fortune followed by Jeopardy every weeknight. I appreciate the trips you take me on.
I have seen you reviewing for a very long time. The amount of effort you put is seen in your videos daily. I love it. Really happy to see you have a million subscribers.Hope you get more in the coming days.
True hard work. Respect for you sir
I was seeing your one plus 6 reviews since I still use it and I was happy to see that you got 1million subscribers.
The fact that you corrected the price for inflation shows how professional you are.
Come on, Michael, everybody knows the "Nokia Tune" is the single best manufacturer default ring tone of all time. I still get goosebumps when I hear it...
Nice video as always :)
Congrats on reaching 1 mill subs
So close to 1 million! Should be 10 million already! Love this channel!
You've just done something that very few UA-cam creators accomplish: You had an astonishing 100,000 people subscribe to your channel.
We know that numbers on UA-cam can get really big, but we hope that you don't lose sight of the reality behind that six-digit milestone. Each and every person who has subscribed to your channel has been touched by what you created. They were inspired,
challenged or entertained.
You achieved this milestone with hard work, perseverance and probably a healthy sense of humour too. What you've accomplished can't be taken away from you. And we'd like to recognise you and all your hard work with this Silver Creator Award, a small token of our esteem and respect.
We know that you don't do this for rewards. You do it because you have a drive to create and share, and because you've found an audience who cares. Believe us when we say that we can't wait to see what you do next. A million subscribers may seem a long way off right now, but you're closer than you think. And we're rooting for you.
Congratulations.
Yours sincerely,
Your 200thk subscribe
Aysuh
Can we get this guy to a million subscribers ? Love his videos!!!
Quality quarantine content of an age of technology some of us miss, some have forgotten, and most who love to be reminded of it - whether it means bringing back memories from years past or appreciating how far we've come (or maybe haven't. Lol)
Huge Congratulations Mr. Mobile!
I have been following and watching almost all the videos since the channel’s inception.
Love your style and exclusivity!
Good luck and waiting for more unique content!
Oh wow my first smartphone was also a 700p. What a wonderful little phone that was. So bricklike yet so powerful at the time. Loving this series of yours. So many lost gems to time.
No one is talking about 2k more to 1 mill subbs? We would love a special edition mr mobile upload, you deserve this michael and the this series is so well scripted as usual and brings back the nostalgia we loved. Stay safe, and stay mobile :D
N95 please. My favourite phone even to this day. And the E71. Not as refined, but a gorgeous phone. Well done with this series. So much nostalgia.
1M subs right around the corner! Well deserved. Great vid as usual.
These are all the phones I'd see in magazines, sometimes if I was lucky Hollywood big shots would go and rent at the blockbuster where I worked at, and I'd see them carrying around those cool toys. Please keep the series coming!!
Congrats on 1,000,000 subs! Love your channel 🎉
Loving this series. I also was a Sprint loyalist back then, and still fondly remember my LG MM-535, whatever that small double sided phone was with the leather case/battery... and my first smartphone, the PPC-6700. Thanks for all the nostalgia!
I had the 6700 as well! And I think you’re referring to the Samsung Upstage.
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] that’s the one. I wanted to live that phone so much, but it was probably one of my worst purchasing decisions ever!
Objectivity is what I love about this channel. Seen a lot of million subscribers channel just blindly hating a piece of tech.
You deserve a larger audience, keep up the good work Micheal.
Great video MrMobile and love this series so much! That Samsung i500 looks cool and I'm glad you made this video! Some Samsung i500 videos are old, not much updated and you did it!
Hey! Congrats on 1 million subs! You have one of if not the best tech channels in all of youtube! Hope you keep going and reach even further heights!
Congrats on your 1 million, MrMobile! 🎉🎉
A cellphone historian. Amazing series!
This review is great! Love so much these nostalgic reviews! Please do it more - you're just great!
I will always have a soft spot for Palm OS devices. Truly was a golden age where I had so much fun with gadgets.
Thanks for showing everyone the father of the Galaxy Note Series. Crazy to think about that this was the Note version of feature phones, and how far stylus phones have come since then.
1 million here we go!
You deserve it soo much! ❤️
When Phones Were Fun....man you hit that out the park for sure. great video.
My favourite tech series on UA-cam
you've come so far Micheal, we love you, congrats on 1 mil. keep it up :)
I really like this series. I used to browse ebay listings to try and find cool old phones just to stare at them. It's nice to see I'm not the only one who likes the designs of phones from the past.
Congrats on 1M! You deserve much more.
I have never been so happy to see a video in my feed. love the series. keep up the great work!
These videos are fantastic and hilarious. I owned so many of the devices back in the day. Thanks for posting!
I remember that age with some nostalgic, but, back then I wasn't able to get those devices anyways, just wonder the magic of tech!
Nice and fun video man, liked as always
I'm loving your videos lately. This series is really fun!
This is such a great series! Keep it up man can't wait to see more!
Congratulations on hitting 1 mil subs! Been watching your reviews over the past 3 years or so and never understood why you didn't get more subs for these quality reviews. Glad to see you finally hit that milestone Michael!
1 mln soon! excited for you Mr.Mobile!
If this were made now, it'd be called the Galaxy FlipNote
I love this series... more of this please.
Nostalgia hits hard... Thanks for this pure gold .. ahhh memories
Almost at 1M! Good job Michael! I will continue to love your reviews and videos! Followed you from the Pocket Now days..
This is one of my favorite series. Some of these phones I never knew of growing up but I seen people use them; mind you; this is all before I became enthralled by mobile tech. Thank you Michael for these videos. Keep up the great content! :)
Of COURSE I want a review of the 7135! I'm hypnotized by that twangy antenna.
This is a great series! Please keep your excellent content coming!
"I'll always have a place in my heart for devices like the i500, a pioneer of the past and an overlooked custodian of an era... when phones were fun."
You can't help but fall in love with this guy's writing and narration style.
I don't have the same nostalgic memories of actually using these things. I was born in 1997 and my first phone was the LG CU515 when I was in 6th grade in 2009. That being said, these always bring me nostalgic feelings of being in middle school. It's just interesting and I love these videos. Keep it up and stay safe! 🙂
Only Mr. Mobile can bring us this kinda content. Really really appreciate the well informed throwbacks Michael. Thanks 🙏
I found out about you through your episode on This is. And im going through the backlog of videos. Your awesome man. Congrats on 1 mil. And keep being awesome. P.S: Sony Ericsson W350 great example of when phones were fun and my first phone
This is my favourite content. Love a throwback. 👌
