As of now (April 2026) I have three phones

I swear I have not gone full phone hipster, whatever that would look like. Phone #1: My first cellphone, a Samsung M320, purchased for $40 in 2009. Yes, I still have it and yes, it still works (for a bit before the battery sputters out). Its main use today is to act like a communicator from the original Star Trek, so I can flip it open and say clever things, like, “One to beam up.” Phone #2: My iPhone 12, purchased for a lot more than $40 in January 2021. It still works fine, though the Liquid Glass update kind of killed any desire I had to use it. Phone #3: The replacement for Phone #2 and my newest phone, a Samsung Galaxy S26. It’s the base model and seems nice enough after I adjusted the settings to my liking. I will have more to say on this soon and will be updating this post soon as well: To all the phones I’ve loved, er, owned before
