Noticed this. Used to be v concerned about people looking at my phone and what model it was, and noticing other people’s too. Now nobody’s arsed unless you’re a phone nerd.

like a £100 phone and a £1,000 phone do the exact same things now but the £1,000 phone does them ever so slightly better

kinda hard to give a shit

The numbers have got too big. 100 megapixels. 16gb of RAM. 6 cameras. Too big. Meaningless.

100 is a big number

I think its because we’ve reached the relative peak of phone development. Years ago you had a 3310 and you could play snake on it or send an sms using longform text, then smartphones came along and they were amazing. Suddenly you could listen to music, stream Internet, play games and all that. Massive leaps. Now the biggest leap is that you can get a phone where the screen goes over the edge of the side of the phone a bit

I think we’re past peak phone tbh. Eventually watches and tv’s will just do their shit better online and the actual talking aspect we’ll probably have implanted into our skin or w/e
