minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish32•6 months agoReminds me of my old N-Gage Taking phone calls on that thing was so strange. You had to hold it like you’d hold a sandwich.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish7•6 months agoThe N-Gage had a bunch of bizarre design decisions. The game cartridge slot was behind the battery - swapping games required disassembling the phone. The revised QD version fixed a lot of the mistakes but it was too little too late by then.
