Bad at Breaking
Just as many old stories in film and TV wouldn’t exist if cellphones existed at the time (so many misunderstandings solved with a quick call), nowadays you just don’t have the satisfying pleasure of destroying your smartphone by merely twisting it, if you so desired. BB is set in 2009-2011, so the ubiquitousness of the flip phone totally checks out.
Many of us miss the cool yet ultimately pointless gesture of “opening” your phone. Wouldn’t surprise me if the few remaining models in existence are favored by those that want an easy way to destroy their phones…
–P.A.
Most apple devices are pretty easy to bend and snap. Or he could just drop it and it would shatter into a million pieces.
Can you imagine if they actually feature that a few years from now in a show? “Time to kill this burner” *bends iphone* It would be hilarious, Apple would have a fit.
