You're not completely correct. The phones today still work just like the phones from 15 years ago: you talk into it and listen to it, you then can communicate with the person on the other end. .
Fifteen years ago, we were working with Windows 98 SE, and you do not appreciate the improvement in electronics since then? It has been said that if cars made the progress that computers have, they would get tremendous fuel mileage and cost very little. I remember paying $100 for one Megabyte of RAM. Not a Gigabyte, a Megabyte. Any reason to brag on Honda generators should come as no surprise but comparing them to the difference between a flip phone and a modern Smartphone is quite a stretch. Voice recognition, face recognition, Internet access among other things were pretty rare at the turn of the Century.
I appreciate the improvements in electronics, but lets face it, most people use their phones for Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, and taking pictures. Not exactly putting all those improvements to good use. Kind of like buying a top-of-the-line Ferrari and using it to get groceries. Useful, but mostly unnecessary.
