When iPhone first released... it was a piece of shit compared to the HTC Dream with Android. The main improvement Apple did, was removing the keyboard.

If there were slide qwerty phones I'd still be buying them to this day.

I miss them so much. Those, and IR transmitters being common, That's a major one to me. Almost 20 years ago, I had control of every single T.V, DVD player, VCR, etc. That came my way thanks to the palm TX, it had IR and a nice little app where you'd just choose the make/model of the device you're trying to control and bam, your screen became the remote you needed. Iirc the buttons also could be used so you didn't necessarily have to do everything touch screen.

Now on my super fancy modern smart phone I couldn't dream of doing that. Hell, I even struggle to use it as a remote for my Roku because I use my device as a hotspot and Roku requires both devices be on the same network. Why can't we figure out how to do what we did so easily 2 decades ago?!
