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.

N93 definitely a smartphone https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_N93?wprov=sfla1
I'd say it was a "smart phone" and not a "smartphone". It, and other Symbian phones like it, existed before the iPhone came out and made touchscreen smart phones a thing. Basically a PDA + Phone.
Even Samsung had a colour touchscreen before iPhone but no one saw it as the first "smartphone". The iPhone was the 'first' true smartphone though you could argue several others before it were smartphones. But I'd class them as "smart phones".
That may be your opinion, but if you follow my Wikipedia link, it says it's a smartphone, so I'm not even going to argue. Wikipedia has a widely accepted definition of a smartphone.
