God I miss real keyboards like this.

The problem is that the physical keyboard takes permanent real estate whereas the software keyboard can come and go, to allow for full screen applications.

I do miss innovative phones like the sidekick, LG chocolate, and other slider ones.

I think I'm okay with that tbh. I miss my Blackberry Torch. Full touch screen on the front and a slide out keyboard

I make due with a Unihertz Titan Slim. Not the best, but with custom ROMs, a temporary relief. I will buy another one or two but after that, I have no idea what next. Hopefully, someone else with make limited edition niche devices.

Maybe it's time to design a super slim case for mine that has a keyboard, only I worry it'll be top heavy
