  1. This is a weird question, but am I the only one who thinks that smart phones have taken the wrong route, design-wise?

    I'm sorry... but I really don't see the appeal in having wafer-thin phones that can bend in your pocket if designed poorly, or phones that are literally all screen.

     

    Imo, those don't improve my experience at all. If anything, they are a detriment to it because there is so fucking little to hold onto when watching a video. It honestly feels unergonomic to use, and this may just be my nostalgia for the early 2000's speaking, but I honestly miss the physical feel of old-school smart phones, and I honestly don't feel that just making the entire phone a screen, with no physical buttons at all, or even edges, really improves the user experience.

     

    I honestly would be happy with a phone that has the physical design of a t-mobile sidekick, but with the modern capabilities of modern smart phones.

      I like all the capabilities of a modern smartphone as you said and I don't mind having a touch-screen keyboard because it makes typing much quicker (I think so, anyways) but I think a lot of smartphones are way too large. I can't even go out with mine because I can't fit it in any of my pockets (not even my overcoat pockets) and I don't use a handbag. That being said, I guess that's fine because I've never found myself needing it while I'm out (if I need to call/text someone, I just take my tiny brick phone that I use solely for that) and it does mean I'm much less likely to break it.

      @Gesu I think it would be cool if companies just added a little bit more diversity into the design of the phone. While I do think touch screen is amazing, I'm horrible at typing with it, and while it is easier to turn it sideways to type, the on screen keyboard takes up so much visual real estate. Plus, there really isn't much to hold onto now that some screens wrap around the phone, and using a phone for too long really hurts my hands because there is literally no ergonomics lol. I think phone companies kinda forgot they're making a handheld device, and it needs to feel good in the hands.
