I see those words thrown around here in every context. People say they love the minimalism, some say that it’s going too far and lacking features, and others counter that saying that adding those features makes it less minimal.
What’s your expectation from a minimal nothingos?
For me, it’s having the least number of installed apps with the most capable features locked behind toggles. That provides a base for 90℅ of cases where you just want the bare minimum to work, and sprinkle in features that you need.
Design can be as wild as possible, because as long as you’re working with the same few actions, it’s going to remain easy to use. The back of each phone is a lot less minimal than just a flat color like a samsung, because there are no actions to take; it’s just art.
