I had the original Motorola Droid and Droid 3, along with a couple BlackBerrys for work. Sometimes I still miss those keyboards, although I’m probably faster with swiping keyboards now.

Oh the days of the qmd.
Lol... i just got my new fx-tec pro 1x with a physical keyboard... too bad about the usb-c video-out, though...
Damn I miss my LG Neon. Such a simple time back then. If I could get that same phone with an updated OS for better web browsing and app usage I would buy it in a heartbeat. Having actual buttons and being able to text under the table or in my hoodie pocket was beautiful.
Few years ago I've heard about tech that allows to have bumps on a screen to indicate Keys, where is it now?
Nothing like my sweet sweet Moto q9m. Perfect size and the curve on the keyboard was just right. A stunning little Windows phone.
I remember my last one. I cooked it with high frequency tig welding by mistake and it would do crazy things. Fun times.
Droid Pro - The best not Blackberry I had.
Also HTC Touch Pro 2 - best Windows Phone with a slideout keyboard I ever had.
Tried all the rest, but everyone made keyboards that took 100 lbs of pressure to press the buttons.
Also RIP Palm Pre, that was a good device, other than the keyboard stiffness.
