    YES!!! I miss my Motorola Hint and my HTC Surround! The Xperia play, the Lumia 1020 even. All phones look the same now and they all do the same things. All you really pay for these days is a little more speed and a few more pixels but they’re 4 times the cost.

      Because now a phone is just a touchscreen with a processor behind it. It’s up to the software developers to bring the value, and they don’t dare change that because any deviation will prevent the next flappy bird from running on their hardware.
