Yeah, my favourite was the brief period where there were full physical qwerty keyboards on phones, which existed before smart phones did because texting was popular before smart phones. Also, smart phones existed before iphones did and I held on to my BlackBerry torch for a while after iphones and later android were a thing specifically because I knew I'd hate touchscreen keyboards.
Phones actually de-enshitified, too, because there used to be a huge market for things like ringtones, wallpapers, emoji packs. I remember getting a special cord to connect my phone and PC to be able to set my own shit because I wasn't paying for a 20 second clip from a song, not to mention no one was even trying to sell the FF battle music as ring tones, which I thought was perfect because phone calls are like random encounters lol (boss battle music for my parents haha). These days you can just set those.
