i hate that smooth-rectangle has become the standard

stop it with the extra cameras and the beveled edges, i'd give up half my screen space for some real goddamn buttons

Yeah, some blackberry-like devices would be nice.

I really liked the second-hand blackberry I had in the mid 00's. I hope that design with physical buttons and the trackball makes a comeback someday. Though I think people are too accustomed to touch screens to be able to move back to smaller devices at this point.

Ngl, I wonder how I was able to type on my Samsung Galaxy Y.
The device is so small and I wonder how much of it were child-sized hands.
