I always hated the 'International' version of the LG Chocolate. The first phone I bought with my own money was the LG Chocolate too, but the 'regular' one. :rofl:

I had phones previously like a Siemens one I don't remember and also a Philips one I don't remember either... but they were bought for me.

A good old Bosch phone :p

I think I've still got it somewhere.

I had 2, the first was orange but it broke, then I got a see-through one.

This was my very first cell phone. I thought this was the coolest thing on the planet back then in 1995. Boy, technology has changed.

Impossible - this handset or the first from the range, the 6110 (your picture is of the 6130 or 6150, not clear which), was released in 1997 which means there is no way you could have had it in 1995.

Sony CMD - Z5! It was very small at that time so that's why the battery was horrible (about 4/5 hours not more). Very cool phone and the Jog Dial felt so retro!

Dude....Did it occurred to you that I may have made a timeline mistake? All I know is I had that phone and that's what counts.
