    Purism made the Librem 5. It’s a chonker and has bad battery life and they only sold a few thousand units. However, if rappers can make dumb phones and sell out 10k units in a few days, I dare say there’s a market for thick phones with good batteries, it’s just that rappers and celebs do better marketing and have a wider audience.

      Marketing maketh the product. Absolutely true and a thick one there would sell.

      If you put two devices down, one thick and one thin, all other things being equal and without an influencer hawking jt. People take the thin one.
