I still have my Nokia brick that I used in college around here somewhere.

You may have me beaten there, though somewhere I've my Ericsson R380, the world's 1st smartphone, iirc it used WAP to do web access, still somewhat useful back in the day.

I have a feeling it wouldn't work now because it may use pre-GSM network protocols? :unsure:

iPhones are horrible.
I had one for a year or two and figured out how to use it at the time but now whenever I have one in my hand I'm clueless.

IIRC my first smartphone might have been a Sony. It had a TV aerial. Though I can't remember ever watching TV on it- though the normal analogue signal in Japan was atrocious where I lived with only a handful of channels which rarely had anything decent.
I then had the iPhone. But moving out  of Japan it was locked by the provider so I couldn't use it.
I then briefly had a cheap windows phone, which did have a really nice interface, shame it died, but FA apps.
Then I've been samsung S5, s7, and currently on a s20fe which I got given by work who never asked for it back.

Many iPhone users present as technically challenged.
Fair :lol: And the technically challenged is a very big market.

I had something similar over here but it was DVB digital tv, it did sort of work but can't remember why I stopped using.
