Car stereos.
They used to have buttons and tape decks and cd players in em. From the factory.
I donβt want to do a complex install of some aftermarket thing. I want a car stereo with buttons, knobs, a tape deck, cd player, am/fm and aux input that looks like it belongs in my cars interior and is designed with the same ideas as the rest of the cars controls.
I still feel touchscreen controls are such a bad idea in cars. Old stereos have dots and grooves on them so you can operate them without having to take your eyes off the road.
I'm on the fence about this as most (all) modern cars also have steering wheel controls so you don't even really need to move your hands much. My car is from the mid '10s and the touch screen is absolutely slow garbage but I was just in a friend's 2020ish Sienna van and her touchscreen is lightning fast like a smartphone which was fine to use comparatively. I do agree that having all the control on the touchscreen sucks but hers still had physical buttons for the HVAC and other commonly used items.
I guess that's fine as long as you have both options for touchscreen and buttons
