Totally disagree with you on hardware:

Just because vendors are falling over themselves to makes Iphone clones, doesn't mean there's no other way.
Personally, the whole current smartphone scene leaves me cold, because no-one is making hardware for me. I want a small, robust phone I can put in my pocket and forget about. Something with a big fragile screen is completely useless to me. I don't really care what software it's running - if I have to leave it at home because I'm afraid of breaking the screen, then the software is irrelevant.
- daliusd 13y agoNokia 515 is waiting for you. Really. Check out it. Still there is nothing exceptional about this hardware IMHO.
- alextingle 13y agoYeah, I'm waiting for prices to come down on that one. (Although it's still a bit large for me.)
- Kluny 13y agoWow, that looks amazing. I find myself wishing there was a banana for scale, though. Is it as small as the old candybar phones?
- daliusd 13y agoYou can always use online tools to compare size: http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Nokia-515_id8116/size#/phones/Nokia-515_id8116/size/Nokia-1100b,Apple-iPhone-5s/phones/632,7710 http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Nokia-515_id8116/size#/phon...
- RyanZAG 13y agoHuh? There are thousands and thousands of devices just like that. They don't make the news though because they're boring and cheap. Head past your nearest phone shop and you can find a huge variety of those kind of phones at incredibly low prices ($20 prepaid kind of prices).
- alextingle 13y agoIt would be nice to see a small form factor phone capable of running Android - it should be possible, now they can make hi-res displays.
