See the top 10 Oldest Cell Phones in The World - tell use your own in the comment

The development of cellular/mobile phones began in the early 1900s as phone companies began to explore wireless technology. It would take the several decades for all the components that make cell phones work to emerge and the world’s first commercial cell phone, the Motorola DynaTAC, was finally released in 1983.

Cellular phone technology developed rapidly after this and led to the smartphones we all know and love (or hate) today.

This list features some of the most important cell phones ever developed, which had a lasting impact on society.

The Nokia 9000 Communicator was one of the first true smartphones and was considered a mobile office. It had all the features of an office — phone calls, e-mail access, web browsing, faxing, word processing, and spreadsheets — in a compact device.

However, because the Nokia 9000 Communicator could do all of these things it was quite heavy, weighing in at 397 grams (14.0 oz). The Nokia 9000 Communicator was years ahead of its time, debuting way before the Blackberry became favored by business professionals.

This mobile office was powered by an Intel 24 MHz i386 CPU and had 8 GB of memory. It opened up to reveal an LCD display and a full QWERTY keyboard.
