Nah, my old mobile phone is in a drawer in my basement.
Mine too, all six of them. Just in case.
Checking in, I got at least six lying around this house. You never know.
They rest in the boxes they came in.
The old batteries can pose a minor fire risk. Haven’t worried about that myself tbh
Mine too.
looks at the box with all his old phones in it
“Y’all better not be polluting Thailand!”
Yep, I have a box with all my cell phones (as well as my wife’s phones) going back to 2005 when I was able to get my first one. Man I miss my Razor v3 and the OG Motorola Droid, at least I can still look at them.
I still have all of mine as well, including my first: a samsung sph-n200.
I haven’t had very many, since I take care of my stuff really well and try to get something that will last a long while.
First was a Tmo Sidekick. And I hella wish someone would make a smartphone version of it, with the flip up screen to cover a real keyboard, and a physical scroll wheel. 🤤
Let me guess, “corporate greed”?
That’s usually the answer to these kind of questions.

More likely small and medium business greed like we saw it with plastic in China.
Would be great if they were easily and cheaply repaired. Nor made “obsolete” in two years via arbitrary updates.
“Why phone companies old mobile phones may be polluting Thailand“
I think that may be a better headline
Thank you. Everyone either has their old phones in a box under their bed or they traded them in to a COMPANY who apparently proceeded dump them into thialand.
All my old phones are polluting a box in my basement. They will be inherited to my kids when I die.
Nope, I’ve still got every phone I’ve ever had except for one that I gave away to someone who lost theirs.
Yeah. My old phones are in my house somewhere.
