I think they become modern in around 2003/2004. I'm surprised to see that they had BlackBerries and iPhones in 2005!

What do you think?

Probably tomorrow

Oh, right. I mean, we had phones of that sort back then.

You'd be suprised in the comparisons of a typical 'phone in, say, the year 2000, to a 'phone in 2004!

It actually amazes me sometimes how much technology has advanced. Like 10/15 years ago things like iPhones and iPads were things of the imagination and could never happen or just something on star trek or something.

Exactly. 2004 was when we hit a bomb in 'phones. Just eye-shattering.

I guess it was when they started having cameras and got a lot smaller

I eat plenty of those. Trust me, lad.

iPhones are alright but far too expensive if you get Pay As You Go, which I would cos it actually feels like mine and I hate contract. But theyre just iPod Touches with internet everywhere and calls/texting which isn't worth the ****ing massive extra amount you pay, especially for like 32gb

I think the 'modern' smartphone came about with the release of the iPhone in '07. I mean, it revolutionised the way we think about our phones. Compare post-iPhone phones to those that preceded it, its like looking at two completely different eras.

Nokias were still big in 2005 so, hardly 2003/2004.

I'd say 2006 when Cameras became a massive feature and virtually every phone had one, and people stopped using their phones for calling and just texting and picture taking.

2009 was when sh*t got interesting though.

iPhone's are brilliant. All my friends who have had Blackberry's have had problems with them.

BlackBerries can be ****, tbh. My dad has an iPHONE 4, which I'm sure is about a million times better. The screen is easier to "touch", it's easier to navigate...it's just better, really.

I don't like Blackberries, my thumbs ache just looking at the keypad. Having the full keypad set kind of negates the point of the smaller gadget in some ways.
