another crappy apple invented useless fashion, that will be spread everywhere, as everyone wants to follow the trends. See: curved display, micro SIM then nano SIM, no headphone jack, etc.

This means less battery life (or security margins) and or less powerful cpu.

MonkderDritte ,

So next time you drop it it’s not only the display breaking?

You don’t say? Next they’ll say the plans also include making it faster and attempts to improve battery life.

Must be a slow news day.

I remember when all of my friends would laugh at the iPod Nano, when it released as being super thin, due to all the people accidentally sitting on them or other easy ways in which they broke.

I would prefer it if manufacturers made phones with smaller screens, so I can actually use it with one hand without some janky workaround (like right/left handed modes on Google Keyboard).

Can this trend of thin tech just end already? It’s pointless.

laurelraven ,

Yeah, I’d rather have my back panel fingerprint reader back than an even thinner phone, and then there’s the pointlessness of making the phone so thin that to have a remotely decent camera they have to add a huge bulge. Just… Make the whole damned thing that thick and use the extra space for, I dunno, more battery maybe?

Wh🥱 cares

billwashere ,

I want more functionality and better battery life. And guess what, thinner doesn’t help with any of those.

dukk ,

Make the phone half as thick, then double the battery and fill the rest with thermals.

Apple: Yes, yes, this innovation constitutes a $600 price increase.

I don’t want thinner. I want more functionality. Don’t expect me to pay 2 grand for a laptop with no external USB or HDMI ports, for which privileges I can pay an additional $100 or so. I’m frustrated enough by the lack of Ethernet jacks on my Lenovo. The last time I had a Mac (work shipped me one), I was even more frustrated by how bad the built in trackpad and keyboard were and the fact that using an external device to replace them came at a premium price.

HDMI is a trash standard and we should move everyone to Displayport at a minimum, or Thunderbolt. But also, all the MacBook Pros have HDMI.

Weird. I think Apple’s trackpad is head and shoulders better than anyone else’s.

I feel like we’re just going backwards, we stopped caring about tech getting thin enough to act like a blade like a decade ago.

Why are we doing this again?

Breaks easier, better for the company

I had the bending iphone. Had it replaced twice under warranty. Never again.

dditty ,

I had the bending iPhone. Used it for five years, never bent. At the time, I really wished it was slightly thinner lmao

mrvictory1 ,

Had the bending iPhone. It got stuck on iOS 12. Safari didn’t work. Never again.

Telodzrum ,

iPhones have been getting thicker year over year since the 11. The 15 is the largest jump in thickness over that period, too. It’s actually pretty reasonable that Apple would seek to return to at least the last prior model’s form factor.

Good. They should continue getting thicker.
