The 2000s were the decade of transformation — phones went from simple communication tools to full-fledged pocket computers. Color displays, cameras, music, mobile internet — all in ten years. Here are the 10 phones that defined the 2000s.
## 1. Nokia 6600 — the first mass-market smartphone
The 2003 Nokia 6600 was the first Nokia smartphone to achieve real popular success. Unmistakable oval design, Symbian, integrated camera, ability to install applications. In Italy, it was the coolest phone par excellence in 2003-2004 — owning it meant being at the absolute forefront.
## 2. Motorola RAZR V3 — the world's thinnest
The 2004 Motorola RAZR V3 was an absolute aesthetic revolution. Just 13.9mm thick, anodized aluminum body, laser-etched keyboard. It was the best-selling phone in the world between 2005 and 2007 with over 130 million units. A masterpiece of industrial design that still impresses today.
## 3. Sony Ericsson K750i — the camera that changed everything
The 2005 Sony Ericsson K750i was the phone that made everyone realize that the camera on a mobile phone could actually be good. 2 megapixels, flash, autofocus — superior photographic quality to any competitor of the time. Refined Scandinavian-Japanese design and integrated MP3 player. A phone that anticipated the era of mobile photography.
## 4. Nokia E90 Communicator — the professional masterpiece
The 2007 Nokia E90 was the absolute pinnacle of the Communicator series. On the outside, a normal candybar, when opened it revealed a 4-inch widescreen display and a full QWERTY keyboard. 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, 3.2-megapixel camera. Every professional's dream — and today one of the most sought-after collector's items.
## 5. Samsung X820 — the thinnest of 2006
The 2006 Samsung X820 set a world record: just 6.9mm thick — the thinnest phone in the world at the time. Ultra-thin metal design, brilliant color display, and surprising lightness. A masterpiece of miniaturized engineering that still impresses those who hold it today.
## 6. Nokia N95 — the smartphone that had it all
The 2007 Nokia N95 was the most complete phone ever produced until then. Integrated GPS, 5-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi, 3G, music player, video playback — all in one device. It was the phone that made anything seem possible. A year before the iPhone, the Nokia N95 was already the future.
## 7. BlackBerry Bold 9000 — the king of communication
The 2008 BlackBerry Bold 9000 was the quintessential professional phone. Perfect physical QWERTY keyboard, real-time push email, military-grade corporate security. It was the phone of managers, politicians, journalists — Barack Obama was famous for not wanting to give it up even as President of the United States.
## 8. Sony Ericsson W800i — the pocket Walkman
The 2005 Sony Ericsson W800i was the phone that brought quality music into everyone's pockets. Sony Ericsson's Walkman series was dedicated to music lovers — superior MP3 player, dedicated keys, optimized battery life. Unmistakable orange design and audio quality that challenged dedicated MP3 players.
## 9. Nokia 8800 — Scandinavian luxury
The 2005 Nokia 8800 was the luxury phone par excellence of the 2000s. Stainless steel body, automatic sliding mechanism, crystal-clear color display. It cost almost 1,000 euros but was an absolute object of desire. Even today, it is one of the most prized and sought-after Nokias by collectors worldwide.
## 10. LG Chocolate — the touch of Korean style
The 2006 LG Chocolate was one of the most desired phones of the mid-2000s. Elegant glossy black design, sensitive touch keys, integrated MP3 player.
