I have all old series collection iphone 5s ,6,6s,7,8 I love that form factor of iphone now I have 11 pro max but the vibe of holding these phones are priceless
In spain you can still use the iPhone 3G. I use a Nokia 6111 as my secondary phone in 2023 and it can still make and receive calls. I can still feel the nostalgia in 2023
Sadly 2g is completely gone, so example if you wanted to use a flip phone or old Nokia phone ( brick ) they will not get any service. There's still some 3g towers here and around, but I do find it funny on my newest android phone I can specifically select all the way back to 1g, which is long dead lol
I like collecting things like this. Apparently my brother-in-law still had his old ORIGINAL IPHONE that came out in 2007. He gave it to me for free, and it still works. He’s such a nice dude.
Just so you know, iphones 3g, 3gs,4, 4s or ios 6 and below in general had this bug where it showed 1 bar after inserting a sim even though theres no signal, so unless you saw 2 bars or more , then you didnt get signal
My grandma still has and uses the ORIGINAL iPhone from 2007, and it still uses the 2G network. To my knowledge they’ve not shut it down quite yet, but she said they were going to real soon, and that was a while back too…

Nowadays it’s a basic feature phone with an ability to listen to offline music and that supports retrogaming if you jailbreak it. I doubt that you can buy anything new for 30$ that will be cooler, even camera is definitely worth all the 30$ in 3gs😅
@@ophtalmologyiirc Flappy Bird still gets updates, and it’s like DOOM now in the sense that everything can run it. PCs (both Windows and Linux), Macs, Chromebooks, Flipper Zeros, phones, tablets, smartwatches, cars and even calculators can run Flappy Bird.
I got this iPhone when it came out but returned in in three days and got a htc evo 4g. First 4g phone ever made. For about a month I was king at every party.
At least in the UK, 2G and 3G still exists on O2. 3 has never had a 2G network, and anyways, all networks apart from O2 are shutting off their 3G networks by next year.
3GS was such a goat IMO. It could run iOS6 while the iPod touch 3rd gen with the same gut couldn't. 4 years of software support back then was MAD. Seriously.
You can’t even use most applications because the server the apps connect to don’t even exist anymore. So like you really can’t do much. Just literally calls and texts.
heeyyy i have a 3gs too! still works, i still have the old charger for it, and all my old photos and games are on it! things like pixel gun 3d, flappy bird etc. glad to see some people still acknowledge it's existence!
iPhone 5S from 2013 in power save mode was my daily driver until December 14, 2022. The last update is iOS 12.5.7 released at January 23, 2023. I hope they will support this device beyond the 10 years barrier.
In my country 2G still exists, i sometimes see it in action on my iPhone 13 when I’m in a lift, it shows up as E, which means “EDGE” and the funny thing is that once I get out of the lift it shows 5G a few seconds later lmao
Lol in Africa all u could get is 3G. I remember 4g being so new I had to call my cellphone provider to get it activated on an iPhone 5c! God everything’s changing.
It’s mind blowing how I recall the 3GS like it’s yesterday but it mindblowns the crap out of the babies in that era. Dig deeper I wish y’all could try dial up and TH-cam and see what we dealt with. A 10 second video will turn into a 30mins wait
