The Evolution of Mobile Phones
As we’ve been in a nostalgic kind of mood recently, we decided to create this little movie illustrating the evolution of the mobile phone.
You’re bound to recognise a few mobile phones from your past as we take you from 1985 to the present day; and you can even learn a few interesting facts along the way!
For instance, did you know the first mobile phone to feature an internal camera was the Sharp J-SH04, released in Japan in 2001? Or that the billionth Nokia ever sold was a Nokia 1100, purchased in Nigeria, a model designed to be dust-proof for use in dusty, developing countries?
Starting with the earliest Nokia and Motorola handsets and ending with the Nokia N95 and Apple iPhone, we also give you a glimpse into the future, with a few concept phones that may make your current mobile look dated within a couple of years!

Why the lack of ericsson phones?
Ericsson phones:
* First true world phone (T-39m & T28 World)
* First 3 phones with Bluetooth (T-36 + T-39m) & its creator.
* First Smartphone based on Symbian OS (R386).
* First touchscreen phone (R386)- I think.
* First phone with proximity sensor Speaker phone (R520m)
* First phone with mobile email client (R386 again).
* and I think the first phones with a mobile wap browser.
..
and k750 should deffo be there along with p800 and t610

“Why the lack of ericsson phones?”
Ericsson was fairly represented. Just google “Nokia firsts”, and you’ll find Ericsson is not the only mobile phone manufacturer making research.
