Hmm, there was a time when function was occasionally considered over form..
The phone is hardly ruined, it's just a high end handset for people in a particular niche, one I happen to belong to (long gave up carrying real cameras, don't give two heaps about Android/pointless OS wars or "mobile apps" or any of that crap, adore the notion of a reasonably high end camera that requires zero effort to bring with me).
Design is often about trade-offs, and based on the parent comment, you seem to have entirely missed the point of this particular design.
