I gotta wonder how awesome that camera is, tho. The rest of the phone got a few millimeters thinner, while the lenses on the camera got a bit fatter. Does it have a physical lens zoom instead of just digital zoom?
Half. A millimeter thinner. And then there's that ridiculous camera bump.
For scale, my Galaxy S10e is 7.9mm thick. Measuring it just now, with a screen protector and a lens protector, it's 9.5mm thick at the camera bump. And I already sometimes struggle to grip it.

How about a display with no camera, no blue tooth, no SD card slot.... Just a touch display, that's internet and phone capable. Nothing else.
Maybe offer a modular camera you can attach somehow if people want that add on.
Could be a dumb terminal with the processing done elsewhere.
the camera is 0.3 megapixels and they just do generative upscaling on that
what do you mean that's not your dad? AI can't be wrong.
They're designed that way to get you to buy $50 cases injection molded from a few cents worth of plastic.
