In 2001, NTT Docomo was the first in the world to offer 3G. On March 31, the carrier cuts off the signal to 500,000 users — the last of their kind in Japan — for good. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2026/03/28/lifestyle/3g-service-end-march-flip-phones/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #life #lifestyle #phones #flipphones #garake

With the end of 3G, Japan's beloved flip phones go dark

More than 500,000 users and their retro phones will lose access to the network from March 31.

Who uses foldable flip phones? I loved my Samsung zFlip4 and zFlip5, but on both of them the screen broke

. I'm not married to Samsung as a brand. I just want fhe small form factor that easily fits into purse and reminds me of my GBA SP.
