Texting 1 handed under the desk in class & looking up at the teacher

teeombay.bsky.social•192 days ago

It was easier to text with those. I could text with my eyes closed 😂

sheldon7687.bsky.social•192 days ago

T9 is straight muscle memory for me 💪🏾😎🤌🏾💯

akamikki08.bsky.social•192 days ago

These youngsters truly do not know.

claudius-maximus.bsky.social•192 days ago

Look, I was texting so fast on them things that I’d rubbed all the numbers off and still knew which ones to press for the right letters.

tfox.bsky.social•192 days ago

💯

therealdoubler.bsky.social•192 days ago

Elite no look texting skills with that T9 keyboard.

maikuniverse.bsky.social•192 days ago

RIP blackberry #ResearchInMotion we are waiting on you!

smo420.bsky.social•192 days ago

You couldn’t tell me NOTHIN’ when I got my Razr! I felt like Sydney Bristow from Alias 🤣 #IYKYK

ratchyonce.bsky.social•192 days ago

Nokia 3310. I could text with my eyes close, could text in the dark without looking at the bright screen in the middle of the night.

dennyfarham.bsky.social•192 days ago

T9 was for the real texters. No look was the true test

medicatedmamita.bsky.social•192 days ago

I was literally typing without looking with just my thumb.

brothaskeeper.bsky.social•192 days ago

Texting and driving a 5-SPEED, at that. I am semi-ashamed.

mrmcdillard.bsky.social•192 days ago

We could see the T9-Matrix

tvjkbae.bsky.social•191 days ago

And in the movie theater in the dark, I could text my butt off!

smirk4themirror.bsky.social•192 days ago

I was mad when everything went to touch screen BECAUSE I wouldn't be able to text and drive 🤣🤣🤣

yelloduzzit.bsky.social•192 days ago

Textin and drivin was MUCH easier 😬😬😬

dondyva.bsky.social•192 days ago

I think I text better on that lol

dreadkingdave.bsky.social•192 days ago

To this day I'm sure I can remember lol

iamkennybrown.com•192 days ago

The way I could write essays blindfolded and have 0 spellchecks. I got my masters degree for that phone😅

frankabney.bsky.social•192 days ago

Yup!!! Used to be able to send texts without even looking at the phone.

jlaro55.bsky.social•191 days ago

K ttyl

dontfeedsimba.bsky.social•192 days ago

Once we figured out T9 we was shooting with the left

dougm.bsky.social•192 days ago

Still can’t type as well on touch screen as I could on the T9

emerypiperauthor.bsky.social•192 days ago

I fell in love with and snagged my man texting on this keyboard! Now here we are, 15 years and 3 kids later.

potheadted.bsky.social•192 days ago

It was easier to be honest because you didn't need to double check the inputs

theradseed.bsky.social•192 days ago

T9 was SO MUCH easier to type w one handed than this crap now, every update makes autocorrect and even swype worse

drelay.bsky.social•192 days ago

Couldn’t tell me nothin when I got this right here!!

drelay.bsky.social•192 days ago

We made it do what it do! 😂😂😂

nickbabian.bsky.social•192 days ago

I could text better on the RAZR than every iteration of the iPhone

21cpedagogy.bsky.social•192 days ago

As a teacher, it was much more difficult catching students texting on those than on the touch screens, which they need to look at to text.

nickbabian.bsky.social•192 days ago

And that’s not even accounting for predictive text/autocorrect guessing the wrong word(s) 😂😂

imoutofhandles.bsky.social•192 days ago

Clicks were like Morris code

mmbb8888.bsky.social•192 days ago

That phone was the TRUTH 🔥💯

4fetti.bsky.social•192 days ago

100% memorized, never looked and was deadass accurate! It was an adjustment to HAVE to look at the screen when upgraded to iphone

mangopaulette.bsky.social•192 days ago

My dragon tattoo Motorola Razor is on proud display on my bookshelf! 😂

damnvanguard.bsky.social•192 days ago

You could send a message with your phone in your pocket, it was wild times

21cpedagogy.bsky.social•192 days ago

I knew folks who could text one handed on that thing and fast.

bl4ckros395.bsky.social•192 days ago

4fetti.bsky.social•192 days ago

justdena16.bsky.social•191 days ago

Dare I say, it was easier to text while driving on these because you could actually feel the keys.

ritlrg.bsky.social•192 days ago

I wasn’t driving back when I had a flip but I definitely had those buttons deeeooowwwnnn 😂

dauntadotdollas.bsky.social•192 days ago

We was actually way better because we could feel the keyboard and memorized where the keys were!

Don’t text and drive though kids lol

baldheaddread.online•192 days ago

alaysiamoore.bsky.social•192 days ago

I wasn’t typing based on letters, I was typing based on the number of clicks and no looking.

granfamn.bsky.social•192 days ago

It's all in the thumb.

jlaro55.bsky.social•191 days ago

Twss

thatnerdjb.bsky.social•192 days ago

critbard.tv•192 days ago

bu7ch.bsky.social•192 days ago

I could text on these and drive a stick 😂😂

jahparkerh.bsky.social•192 days ago

🤣🤣🤣 that’s that real OG shit right there

misskittiemo.bsky.social•191 days ago

got it done? these phones were the reason texting & driving laws were written 😂 we were definitely crashing out while crashing out 🤣🤣🤣

drkassiej2b.bsky.social•191 days ago

Facts!!!!!

trojansuzanner.bsky.social•190 days ago

I will admit to losing THREE of these down the club toilet because I kept in the back pocket of my pants.

Luckily my friend got them free from his job at Motorola. First SIM card to save the day!

curlypersonality.bsky.social•192 days ago

In school I would sneak a look at the message and text the reply with the phone IN my pocket what you mean??

radbadtad.bsky.social•192 days ago

It was way easier to text without looking, using T9 and physical buttons.

thirdmoore.bsky.social•192 days ago

Lemme tell ya! 😂😂😂

tinanoir.bsky.social•192 days ago

One thing we gon' do is adapt!

mrfresh.bsky.social•192 days ago

Oh I was, trust. I still have Razr V3M 😂

ncj523.bsky.social•191 days ago

I miss my razor! ❤️

erikkillmongeresq.bsky.social•192 days ago

Oh, we were!!!

djames82.bsky.social•192 days ago

Who needed autocorrect? Not us! I didn't even use T9. Straight clicking through paragraphs with one hand and keeping eyes on the road.

reese23.bsky.social•192 days ago

I broke my phone and tried to go back to my razor temporarily. Had to go on to the store and get a phone b/c I couldn’t form words to save my life. The skill just died 😂

drodagoat.bsky.social•192 days ago

I was yung

drodagoat.bsky.social•192 days ago
