I hate the bumps. The camera in the 4a/5 generation was fine. Hate the new look and feel but had to upgrade because of security updates and not wanting to custom rom because I value NFC payments too much.

I hate the camera bumps. Just make the entire phone the same thickness and - hey! This is crazy, but maybe then you could then add a bit more structural integrity and put a bigger battery and a SD card slot and a headphone jack in there as well.

Honestly, I'd be fine with a less substantial camera and a more substantial battery. The "a" models should have thinner cameras and thicker batteries. Oh, and give the back some texture so I don't drop it; I have a case, so that's not a hard requirement.

And There's some dumbass sack of cartilage that thinks we bought these phone because the aesthetic elevated them over the competition when really we bought them despite them not being designed with human hands in mind
