I saw a toddler pretending to take a phone call from an imaginary phone a few weeks ago, and it really threw me that she was holding her “phone” like one would a smartphone (As opposed to putting your thumb to your ear, and outstretching your pinkie towards your mouth).
Yeah to me it’s weird that phones are flat slabs now. That whole concept would have looked stupid in the 80s or even the 90s.
Its cause they’re all pocket computers that just happen to be a phone too.
Even this phone only mobile phone from punkt still has that form factor so it can fit in your pocket.
Exactly, I say modern cell phones are “phones” like those colored plastic data slabs on original Star Trek were “tapes”.
