The way we consume technology: unrepairable, disposable, and with a lifespan of 1-3 years, is completely environmentally unsustainable and relies on exploitative globalized labour. In 2006, the era of the motorola razr, if you told me everyone would be carrying a phone that weighs 2-3x, is well over double the size, and has 1/5 the standby time... I would not have understood why. People's tastes, habits, and lifestyles can change dramatically. I don't believe for a second a robust, modular, user-repairable, and maybe even upgradable phone would not fit into people's lives in a way that made them happy... but I also don't believe for a second that market forces will produce said phone. Much more money to be made on fragile luxury items that we replace as often as possible.
