Reverse the numbers and you get 1220. Feel old yet?
Look again. Reverse the numbers and you get 2102. Feel old yet? Look again.
The numbers are now diamonds!
Can’t believe it’s been 805 years without Adelaide II of Büren 😞
Ugh, too thick. And the bars at the top and bottom? Gag me with a spoon.
Who needs user-replaceable batteries, phones that are meant to be taken apart and repaired (aka… don’t glue the damn things together), or a device that doesn’t actively resist you changing your OS, when you have wrap around display?
I’m gonna be honest the design looks cool. forget the anti-consumer stuff about apple for a sec, like. it LOOKS cool. impractical? sure. but like, you’d definitely get the attention of everyone on the playground with that thing.
I like that it has bezels, a physical home button, and an apparently 16:9 display
That’s such a bad interface on the side. Nothing is tactile. Touch something on the left side without looking, by feel alone, and you might get loudness, might get lights.
Surprise disco.
they could add haptic feedback, like they did on the samsung s8, where the home button felt more physical, because u hav to press with pressure and it vibrate when u do. it feels surprisingly comfy and reasonably real. but yes, normal buttons WAY better. <3
I guess it would be an improvement, but it wouldn’t really solve the problem of knowing what you’re pressing.
I guess maybe you could have some light vibration with touch and trigger it with a harder press, but it really feels like we’re putting way more effort into just making worse buttons. I don’t see the tradeoffs being worth it without a lot of investment from both the phone maker and app makers
Exactly. This is also why having controls in your car be strictly touch screen is dangerous.
And in 2013 we’ll have this:
There was a phone with a projector built in.
IIRC it was shit
ngl, I would love to own a phone with a built in projector
The future is now!

All I can see in my mind is dropping that thing, over and over again.
I’m not worried about dropping it, but I can see myself throwing it out after I unintentionally activate one of the side buttons for the 45,000th time.
Also a fair point, yes!
