We compensated it with stickers and cases, but that’s not nearly as meaningful. If I kill my phone and get another one in a shop, I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. Maybe it’s better for many in the end, but I love feel attached to my stuff.
We also compensated with a VASTLY more customizable software environment. With your Nokia <insert model> you could maybe install a new icon pack and play with the theming and that was about it most of the time. A modern smartphone lets you turn it into a completely different thing than what came out of the box. Most people don’t give a shit and don’t delve too deep into customization because on a modern phone there are much more interesting things to do than change your ring tone for the 17th time that week.
