World’s oldest GSM phone


Back in 1991, the Motorola 1000 'Autotelefon' was the digital phone of choice.

Called a 'transportable', because, well, you couldn't get away with calling it 'mobile', the Motorola 1000 is bigger than most of today's base stations!

More surprising, and a real testament to the success of the original GSM specification, the Motorola 1000 will still work, unchanged, on today's vastly-different GSM networks.
