      It was Neo’s sunglasses in the Matrix that was the shit back then Even though people wanted Morpheus’ sunnies. No one could pull it off except Lawrence Fishburne

          It boggles the mind why they never released the phone from the first movie. They thought we just wanted anything from the matrix series so they launched the one from the matrix 2 but that one was bulky and unattractive.

          It was that sexy slider everyone really wanted and they denied us!

          I still want that. Those new folding RAZR phones fall super short by not being able to flip open or slam shut quickly

            And such a slider mechanism would also work pretty well for modern smartphones as a protective cover.
