I like how at the time we hadn't even considered the entire slab would be a screen, like the memes still have the home button at the bottom. I get that it's a meme but still.
We also probably assumed the headphone jack would never go away either so.
It was my prediction. We've even got ones with a screen that wraps onto the side. A screen on the back side hasn't happened yet, though.
But it's just dumb, so it hasn't caught on.
I hate phones with glass backsides, I've replaced the back of my S20 a dozen times before switching to a phone with a plastic back. Yes it looks nice (if you use it without a cover), but it breaks so easily. It's always super thin glass, not the thick gorilla glass like the front. If you look at it wrong it cracks.
Pixel 5 had a metal back coated with some resin thing. Best phone design in history.
