Flagship stuff is just optimized.

You probally wouldn’t be surprised to find out a bunch of interesting designs of the past had durability and longevity issues.

Yeah people often mention the funny phone designs from the 2000's but they also praise the Nokia 3310 for its reliability.

Nah, flagship stuff is overpriced. 3x the price for a bit better camera AI and a glass back that breaks after a drop from 10cm.
