in '09 I had this slide out physical QWERTY keyboard phone. like you turned the phone on its side and split the phone like you were splitting a deck of cards in half.
kinda like this one. https://i0.wp.com/www.gottabemobile.com/wp-content/uploads/Samsung-Stratosphere-keyboard1.jpg

I’m surprised there isn’t a market for a case with built-in slideout keyboard, I’d hate to have to choose between physical keyboard and rest-of-phone-good.
My first smartphone was a second-hand Motorola Droid A855 that I got in like 2012 (I think it was about 2-3 years old by the time I got it). That keyboard was great and I hated how smartphones were slowly moving away from it.
