I rocked a Samsung Alias 2 for 4 years before I got an iPhone 5. The e-ink keyboard was awesome how it changed when you flipped the screen open to portrait or landscape.

My very first phone was my only non "smart" phone. And even then it was pretty powerful for what it was. It had a web browser, could play mp3s, etc. but I don't think it was explicitly a smart phone.
My next phone was a Pantech Duo which was labeled a smart phone, but probably wouldn't be considered one by modern standards. It did the same thing as the previous phone, but you could load apps onto it, came with word, excel mobile on it, could do email, etc.
After that phone I got an iPhone 3g shortly after the 3gs came out.
