The Ericsson T28s is a GSM dual-band, compact flip mobile phone manufactured by Swedish telecoms company Ericsson in 1999.
Description
The T28 was the lightest and slimmest phone at the time, with a weight of only 81 grams.[1]
Unlike cellphones of the time (1999-2001) it had a fixed, stubby external antenna. It was probably best known as the first phone that used Lithium polymer batteries.At one point, it was the best selling mobile phone in America.
In terms of market positioning, Ericsson designated this as a premium phone, as such it was priced substantially higher (often more than triple) the price of the T10 and T18 devices - their nearest cosmetic and functional competitors. It has a tiny LCD screen and an automatic-opening flip. The antenna can be changed to suit the tastes of the owner.
