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.
So gimmicky
Can this trend of thin tech just end already? It’s pointless.
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?
I’m looking for tha THICCness
This thin obsession really needs to stop.
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.
we like it thic
I had the bending iphone. Had it replaced twice under warranty. Never again.
I had the bending iPhone. Used it for five years, never bent. At the time, I really wished it was slightly thinner lmao
Had the bending iPhone. It got stuck on iOS 12. Safari didn’t work. Never again.
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).
I’m not going to buy any of those, and I don’t use a smartwatch at all, but I’d rather have a thicker laptop and phone with the extra space expended on a larger battery.
This means less battery life (or security margins) and or less powerful cpu.
So next time you drop it it’s not only the display breaking?
any phone thinner than an iPod Touch 4 is unnecessarily thin imo
The 13” iPad Pro M4 is thinner than the iPod Nano, making it the thinnest device Apple has ever made (except for the camera bump, but we don’t talk about that). It’s wild how thin it is, but it’s significantly lighter than its predecessor and is much nicer to hold.
But it can be that thin because it’s large enough that the battery can be spread out. I wouldn’t want a phone that thin.
Why? Phones have been thin enough for a long time that you have to put them in a case just to get a good grip.
I want an iPhone with a larger battery so it doesn’t have the stupid camera bulge.
Longer life and doesn’t rock when I text on a surface.
seriously
Oh I’m serious.
When Satan’s Maggoty Cum Fart says they are serious, then you better believe that Satan’s Maggoty Cum Fart is being serious and take it seriously!
doesn’t rock when I text on a surface.
I mean, I agree with you on the battery life being desirable, but purely in terms of addressing the rocking, does putting it in a rigid case resolve that?
It makes the phone bigger without extra battery life so what’s the point?
I’ve actually never ran a case on my phones just a screen protector.
And I can repair when it breaks.
Because we need to keep innovating?
Actually, they’ve been getting thicker every year since the 6, believe it or not.
Exactly. I’m still on my 11pro for this reason, already had to replace the battery. I got the 15 as a work phone, it feels very large in comparison, I’m not a fan.
I’d be happier if they push for lighter devices personally. Glass feels nice, but their Pro models can be obnoxiously heavy.
they will never be as thin as Wiko Highway Pure

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
Wh🥱 cares
