I think there's a disconnect between what makes someone buy a device, and what makes a quality device. In the abstract I think a lot of people would say they'd take a heavier phone that's more durable and has a longer battery life. Unfortunately most phones are sold on "tech-lust." The sleekness and thin-ness of the device. How futuristic it is. People will pay a lot of money for a luxury device that feels "right." I'm not sure how we resolve the conflict. For a sellers perspective you kind of have to chase the art-piece, especially when people choose it over the practical tool again and again. But I think most people would be happier if the design was more tool-like.
