When Phones Were Fun: Sony Ericsson P910 (2004)

It's yet another new-iPhone week, where "new" means ... a different kind of green. So what better time to take a trip back to 2004: when choosing between touchscreen versus stylus, trackwheel versus keypad, even slab phone versus flip phone … required no choice at all. Re-introducing the Sony Ericsson P910: one of the original "smart" phones! [SUBSCRIBE TO MRMOBILE] https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSOp... [ABOUT WHEN PHONES WERE FUN – SONY ERICSSON P910] This is the eighteenth in a series of MrMobile videos exploring the mobile tech world's most vibrant period in design and experimentation. In “When Phones Were Fun,” Michael Fisher re-reviews cellphones from the golden age of mobile, the decade-long span from the turn of the century to approximately 2009.
