Hey! I'm looking for a modern smartphone that still has that early 2010s / Frutiger Aero vibe â glassy, skeuomorphic, colorful UI, or overall aesthetic similar to Windows Vista / Samsung TouchWiz / Sony Xperia 2012 era.
Basically something that looks or feels Aero, but still runs modern apps (like YouTube, Discord, etc.) without issues.
I don't think there are any new phones in specific that intentionally go for the look, but I think it's possible to use themes to emulate the look, seen some mobile frutiger themes before.

flipphones actually remember old phones pretty well
there might be sum mods of them that make their icons be glossy and Frutiger Aero Styled
"me when me when me when me when" u saw nothing i swear-
An idea I've had for a while now is literally this, but like, a company that makes and sells them, not only that, but the OS is based off of GrapheneOS or smth like that, tuned to the device's hardware (camera app, any gimmicks, not requiring the phone to be a Google Pixel, etc.).
I just don't have the tools and stuff to make that or a successful company. Someone else do it?
If someone does, please bring back the physical navigation buttons!

Any recommendations?
you could always use an app launcher on your phone
