Sit up, strap in, and pull up that antenna. We're T9'ing it from now on. Be real, there is a part of you that misses your flip phone.
Unlike your big ass delicate iPhone, flip phones could be dropped over & over and that shit never broke.
If you were in a fight, you could literally throw your phone across the room and it would be fine. You could be 100 times more dramatic back then. Life was more fun.
That grainy ass camera was also the original Instagram filter.
You could just ball that much harder.
Opening your phone was also more of a theatrical production.
You just looked cooler.
ALSO, when we all had flip phones there was WAY LESS digital drama because our phones couldn't do shit.
You could dress that thing up with charms and bedazzled things.
Technologically: It was also smaller and easier to transport. The battery lasted forever because you weren't on it all the time. You didn't have to charge it for days.
