Greed for money. Today’s inventors try to steal our money. They even resorted to 4 cameras and stuff.

People didn’t carry around older phones and they didn’t do much besides call. Phones nowadays do so much stuff. We have access to all of human knowledge and video games at our fingertips. Which takes a lot more programming. Plus people never dropped older phones.

Before touch-tone was available.
Otherwise, the phone would probably still work also, lol :-)

You must have an iPhone. I have a Moto g6 that can last 3 days on a full battery and has a super durable screen.
