Toot

I don't want to spend my money on products with AI. You know what I do want to spend money on? A small smart phone that fits in my hand paired with pants that have pockets guaranteed to fit said phone in them. Please and thank you.

@carol more pockets and less AI is something I can get behind.

@carol Yes! What inspired me to switch from Android to iPhone years ago was the original IPhone SE which was tiny. I held onto that phone for five years, finally replacing it with an iPhone 12 mini, which was bigger, but still pretty small. Apple dropped the mini after the 13 mini. 😢

@bruce @carol I've switched over to flip phones because they're the only ones which are even reasonably sized for pockets

@bruce @carol (plus the screen on the outside is actually reasonably useable one-handed, unlike most phones)

@carol Evetime I think about women and cellphones and the pocket situation I'm reminded of Dell Griffith with the American Light and Fixture Company, Jewelry Division and the fact that shower curtain rings are now bigger than the Zanco Tiny t1 cell phone.

TL;DR: cell phones worm as earrings. So it'll even work hands free.

@carol I think I would pay more for a guaranteed “AI” free phone that also fit in my pocket.

@carol I assume Samsung has a team working on engineering people to have larger hands.
