Motorola Milestone, sometime in early 2010. So-so battery life and would get hot real easy too. Loved how flexible Android was though.

Galaxy S

I wasn't an android person in the beginning but I always dabbled with it. I daily drived a windows phone until it got stolen in 2017, then I was hoping arround several dying phones that my family had, an s3 mini, an LG v3, an s4 mini. Then in 2019 I got a galaxy a30s and fell in love with one ui, now I'm using an infinix note 12 g96

Motorola ATRIX 4G (2011) from work. The one with the laptop dock, although we didn't actually give out the laptop docks at work.

My favorite phones were the HTC M8 and M9. Great phones, felt very premium. We also had some HTC One X+ devices but there was a very particular issue with that specific phone in that AT&T SIM cards were just slightly not thick enough so there would be intermittent disconnection issues, generally solved by placing a piece of Scotch tape on the back of the SIM and cutting to fit. They also had a terrible tendency to overheat due to the Tegra 3 chip.

I've actually still got one of the original One X+ development devices - it's white and has a serial number and some sort of code etched on the front, and a big ol' NOT FOR SALE etched on the back. Holding it now, I miss how small phones were back in the day.

Galaxy Ace in 2017. It could, very well, do absolutely nothing at that time ever since the Android Market and GMS for Gingerbread were shut off and all the apks I can sideload are discontinued and outdated versions, some of which absolutely not working.

2010. It was a motorola devour and it was basically a droid with different externals. I loved it. I owned the droid two and three after that. Miss slide out keyboards quite a lot actually.

I'm going to show my age here, but my first was a shiny new Google Nexus One. I still miss that phone.

My first android was HTC Evo 3D. Until then I had touch nokia symbian phone so it was quite a jump forward. Evo got off 60% of price within 6 month so I had to update. It was a hell of a deal. Lasted me for 4 years. Then I went for Somy Xperia Z1 compact.

My 1st android device would be 2nd hand xperia x10, i remembered installing cyanogenmod 7 on it and learning about rooting through it

I've got a Meizu M2 in 2015, replacing my Sony Ericsson Walkman W810 that served me well for 9 years ! The meizu was good too, until it wasn't... one day they pushed and update that rendered it completely unusable and they took 4 month to fix. By this time I had already replaced it. Otherwise very robust despit the plastic construction, it fail off a rollercoaster once and survived without damage! I still have the phone and use it occasionally as a backup, it still works but it's barely usable at this point because the obsolete software.

Got a Galaxy S3 at a sweet discount when the S4 first released, so it was probably around April 2013. I used that phone for quite a while, eventually rooting it, installing Cyanogen Mod, corrupting the filesystem, going back to TouchWiz, and finally ending on Lineage OS 14. By then though, I had moved on to using an LG G5.

Droid 2, was a hand-me-down from a friend, had mostly used an iPod Touch before then.

Of course immediately rooted and rom'd because I knew about jailbreaking, thing was pretty nifty, especially for GBA emulation with the keyboard

Galaxy s2, after being on an iPhone 3gs, Apple made it increasingly more difficult to jailbreak at the time I did not want to get stuck in their ecosystem so I bailed and never looked back.

I imported (to Sweden) a G1 from Germany in 2008. A bunch of experimentation on that and my next Android phone the HTC Desire Z in 2010 eventually helped me land a job as an Android developer.

15 years later I'm kind of sad about where it's all headed. Surveillance and user lock in...

HTC Desire, 2011, running Android Eclair, 2.1. I loved that phone.

HTC G1, but before that I put Android on my HTC Tilt2 which was a Windows CE phone so not really Android but you could side load it. This was early 2008.
