As much as I love my Android, I find with the new cell phone models, we're losing hanging up impact.
The first phones were bricks. When you put down that bad boy, you made a point of it, in fact each time someone hung one up, the earth shook a little. Throw a cement block to the ground, you get a good impact.
Then came the matrix flap, the little useless plastic cover that slip over the keys. It was useless, broke instantly, but when you wanted to show attitude when ending a conversation you slid that thing closed with your chin and message sent.
Then came the king. The flip phone, thick and bulky at it's best. It was by far my favorite non-smart cell phone. There was nothing more satisfying then ending a conversation by snapping the phone closed. "Yeh well I dont care SNAP". Hmm Hmm.
Texting became popular and so the slider phones walked in. You could still get a decent snap. But mostly after a text "No. I wont." slide-snap.
Now, when I want to end a conversation I am completely unable to give it attitude. Especially in winter where it goes, take off mitt, swipe in my code gently, and lightly tap the screen.
I find the end of a conversation completely unsatisfying. Perhaps they can make a Samsung case with a little flap for my pure enjoyment?
