The Triumphant Return of the Good Small Phone
- simonblack 6y agoI spent many years on the size-reduction path of mobile phones during the 90s to mid 2000s, as my mobile phone went from the one-pound brick NEC P3 of 1991 all the way down to my shirt-pocket chocolate-bar sized Nokia 6300 that weighed less than 100G around 2005. Then I watched in sheer disbelief as mobile phones got larger and heavier and less portable year-by-year. What have we got now? We have mobile phones trying to be computers that are too heavy to be truly mobile and too tiny for doing full-screen creative computer work.
