Probably the navigation I guess, though it's not something I've given much detailed thought into. I just know that whenever I pick up a friend's Android, I hate the experience.

I hate the experience of a non ergonomic rectangular device in general. It’s uncomfortable to use in most situations.

For example I use my pinkie finger to support the weight of my device when I type. The weight of the iPhone 14 combined with a case is enough to leave a permanent impression in my pinkie from heavy use. A contoured case that considers how people actually hold their device would be nice.

If we were to rethink all of it from the ground up I’m sure there is a better way. Maybe even a silicone soft phone would be a good start.

Oh I definitely agree. I'm waiting for the next SE to come out, I'll be buying it. The large form factor causes real strain in my wrists.
