This is what my phone looks like:

Is it clunky? Better question: Why in the name of high-holy Jesus Christ would I care what my phone looks like?
- sanswork 19y agoDo you carry that phone with you every time you leave the house? No? Then you're not really comparing apples to uhh apples are you?
- mixmax 19y agobecause design matters.
- yters 19y agoIn what way? Because people buy pretty things? That is probably what the parent thinks, so he doesn't see how you answered his question. However, I suspect you mean something much more insightful. I know from your blog that you consider design to be more than an issue of functionality or marketing, could you expand on what you mean?
- sanj 19y agoDon Norman actually points to that phone as a pinnacle of design: - it has enough cord to move around a desk - it has enough weight to not fall off, but not SO much weight that it presses buttons when on its 'face' - the hang-up knobs are guarded by the handset holder Compare this to the crappy (landline) phones that were in use in the same timeframe (early 80's?) and you'll agree.
