Nostalgic 1990s Tech Gadgets You Still Remember

Some of the most iconic gadgets of the 1990s were the personal digital assistants (PDAs), such as the Palm Pilot and the Newton.

These devices were the predecessors of the smartphones and tablets we use today.

They allowed users to store contacts, calendars, notes, and even play games on a touchscreen interface.

PDAs were also popular among business professionals, who used them to send and receive emails, faxes, and documents.

Another gadget that defined the 1990s was the portable music player, such as the Sony Walkman and the Discman.

These devices enabled users to listen to their favorite music on the go, using cassette tapes or compact discs.

They also sparked a culture of personalization, as users could create their own mixtapes or playlists.

Portable music players were the companions of many people during their travels, workouts, or leisure time.

Cassette Tapes

If I wanted to play a song I liked, I first had to sit next to my radio and wait for my favorite song to come on, and hurry to record it on a cassette…most likely with the DJ talking over the beginning and the end 🤘
