AR needs to kill the smartphone screen soon. Make my phone a keyboard and an external processor for my wearables.

I just got a 16 Pro. I still have my 7 Plus. Form factor of 7 plus is still the best of any of the iPhones, for my money. It feels THE best in-hand.

I got a 16 pro max and it’s horrible without a pop socket.

With a pop socket, it’s the best sized phone I’ve ever had.

Give me back my physical keyboard, and I'll be happy alongside better battery life (or removable batteries).

The last thing I want is a phone I can mistake for a table mat when I'm tired, which I feel is how phones are going. What's the new average screen size now? 27" or is that next year's model?

I miss the formfactor of my Nokia E7....

My favourite keyboard was on my BlackBerry Bold 2.(9700 I think was the model number). The keys were shaped in a way that made touch typing an absolute breeze with the perfect amount of tactile feedback.

In the Blackberry range, the 9700 is damn cool, I have set up many of those with email through a Blackberry server, the one thing I missed was dedicated buttons for the Swedish characters ÅÄÖ, which the E7 has depending on the layout.

I believe the E7 is the coolest smartphone design ever, it's like a mini laptop, combine the design of the E7 with apps like Putty touch and a Linux server with screen irssi and you will look like a hacker...

Screen irssi... That's something I have not heard in a long time.
