Counterclockwise: naming things  is hard,  so every new phone is called the "One"

07 April 2019
HTC One, OnePlus One, Android One, Google One, tech companies don't have much imagination when it comes to naming things.

Sort by:

EveryOne uses One in their product because One will make One think its number One product

    Somehow I miss the numbering of Nokia phone with 4 digits. The first digit indicates the series/model of the phone. The next digit indicates...well I do not know exactly LOL. But the point is that it is easy to choose the phone based on the first digit, although the weakness is that it may be so difficult to remember all digits.

        Everyone thinks that Galaxy Mega phone is weird, now every phone released with mega size not looking weird.

          Looks like I'm not the only ONE (heh) noticing this dumb trend, lazy bums.
          So many thanks for bringing this up in this article, this needs to stop honestly and I'd rather have my software/device called a ThinQ than a One.
