I agree. With automobiles, people seem to be more aware of the constraints and the balance of capabilities to make a vehicle that fits a segment. I.e. sports cars aren't always comfortable. One day, people may understand tradeoffs in phones and realize that long battery life may require a thick phone.

I'm pretty sure most people realize that, and everyone I've ever heard complaining about battery life also added that they wouldn't mind a thicker phone.

Of course no true sports cars have it, but some cars claiming to be sports cars have dial-a-mode for their suspension. Driving to work? Select smooth and comfortable. Driving for fun? Select performance.
