Change for change's sake. If the phone makes phone calls, why does it need to do all that other crap?

It reminds me of Microsoft slopware: every "upgrade" offers functionality that no one wants and almost no one uses, but MS builds it in to make it look like it's really done something worthy of a new release. And half the time you spend more of your day fighting the bloated software than you do using it for its primary purpose.

Sounds like somebody hired schlocky old Consumer Reports writers from the seventies .

Are you on top of this stuff, Badger?

I used to carry a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini, quite small, which I loved, but battery problems ended that.

Now I’ve got the Apple SE, a little bit bigger, but still almost fits in my shirt pocket.

Is anybody making small phones anymore?

One of the fundamental problems with tech is too many mediocre problem solvers chasing down too few problems.

I wonder if there isn’t a market for $0.25 public phones?

There needs to be something so you can tell which end is the top and which is the bottom. That phone in the picture looks like it solves that problem.

Next, I don’t want a really thin phone with a really thin battery that does not last all day.

I want a fat phone with a fat battery that lasts for days!

I’d be happy to see the physical keyboard come back.

I absolutely love my new Kodak iphone/camera. The camera takes pics at 21 megapixels and they look fantastic. The phone works well too. The only drawback is that it runs on android, a poor OS. Another bennie :The Kodak camera/phone cost less than $150.

Also boring!

That's an idiot's way of saying "they work".

And that's what I want from my equipment ... for it to work.

My Galaxy S6 works just fine, thank you.
