    How about instead of making nothing in the phone decent except the camera, we put more memory in the phones and make them usable for actual computing

      You think a phone with 512GB storage and 12gb RAM is lacking? Phones should be way faster and snappier with what resources they have, Android and iOS are just bad in using what they have available

      These days phones have a lot of ram. It isn’t uncommon to see a 4gb phone.

        Better not develop anything for the platform that needs any real processing power then, let’s just keep phones as data harvesting tools and nothing more

        That way I can use my phone for my favourite way to get my temperature!
