Survey

Modern Productivity Phone Survey

Modern smartphones have become powerful, but many people feel they’ve lost practicality, repairability, tactile controls, and real productivity-focused design.

This project explores a different idea:

A modern business/workstation phone inspired by classic keyboard devices, combined with modern features like:
- HDMI desktop mode
- physical QWERTY keyboard
- modular repairs
- expandable storage
- long battery life
- tactile navigation
- affordable replacement parts
- user-controlled updates

The goal is NOT to make another social media-focused glass slab.

The goal is to create a practical, durable, repairable pocket workstation.

This survey helps measure interest, gather feedback, and understand what users actually want from modern mobile devices.

Thank you for participating.
