I want full size USB-B on all phones. Fight me

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 21 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Thicker Phone with a longer battery and durable. Sign me up.

Nope. It's aaaaaall camera bump.

Camera bump really pisses me off. Just make the phone thicker with a longer battery damnit

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Your phone is now a cylinder behind the camera.

God yes. I absolutely HATE that phones got slimmer and slimmer while also consuming more battery - which can’t be swapped like the good old days.

I’ve got giant hands. Give me a phone that’s AT LEAST twice as thick with a battery that lasts at least three days.

I’d absolutely carry a large Motorola brick phone style if those were still viable today. They do make retro gimmick phones like it, but you really do need a smartphone for a lot of specific apps.

Unihertz and Oukitel both make "rugged" phone models with giant batteries - aimed at weekend campers with giant hands. And Fairphone and Volla both have phones that still allow for easy battery swapping.

Neat, I've never heard of those. Unihertz makes one with a projector in it... that's wild. I'd be hesitant to buy a phone that's sold on AliExpress though, I'd assume OS support wouldn't be that great.

[–] TotalSonic@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah, software support tends to be pretty bad for their devices, with few updates, and they are often bad with posting kernel source for their devices, so hard to get custom roms or flash alternative OS's on them too. But if you want a phone that has a battery that can last 3 days straight - they are indeed available for purchase

[–] lauha@lemmy.one 2 points 4 months ago

There are a ton of those in the market already

Just give me an AGP slot on my phone. Hell, toss in a SCSI while you’re at it.

If battery technology werenʼt still stuck in the Vietnam War era, 2-second rapid charging would require something like a thick boi USB-B cable to satisfy everyoneʼs desire to also use their phone as a tazer/hand grenade/flying drone/cardiac defibrillator/space heater.
