It's going to be darker grey than all of those.
What about the 20th anniversary Mac?? Widely panned (and way way over priced), and I think maybe this would have similar outcome unfortunately...https://apple-history.com/anniversary
I hope they won't. The Dynamic Island is incredibly useful for weather alerts and/or football results.
I mean I like when it shows info, but otherwise it shouldn't be there. I'm wishing for a hybrid.
Exactly. Due to Tim Cook's mediocrity and laser-focused goal of giving customers as little as possible in order to maximize profits for shareholders, Apple has been reusing practcially the same design as the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro. The current iPhone 16 should be called iPhone 11sssss, and the iPhone 16 Pro should be called iPhone 11sssss Pro. So in 2027, if Apple wanted to be more honest, they shouldn't use the names iPhone 19 and iPhone 19 Pro. Instead, they should be named iPhone 11ssssssss and iPhone 11ssssssss Pro.

Delivery and rideshare status too. I suppose if all one does is spend time inside apps it's not that useful. Some of us like to multitask on our phones.
The only iPhone that won’t be able to do anything because Apple Intelligence will think “XXX” is too adult and so censor every last ounce of it. 😂Sets up the 30th anniversary phone to be the iPhone XXX
So glad that hack is gone. His sensibilities jumped the shark with iOS7, the butterfly keyboard, and reduced ports.
All glass phone.
Pfffffft.
Maybe a great idea for a guy who thinks life is a perpetual design contest. And who gets replacement phones with a cracked screen for “free” essentially.
Yeah, why not also glass shoes, belt buckles, and forks/spoons/knives.
The issue with the the year naming conversion is the devices are released towards the end of the year. So if people buy in the Sep - Dec window is relevant, but come January and it sounds like old news and remains so for the better part of the year. It’s a psychological thing and I can’t see them doing it, unless the release window changes (also unlikely).
Ah sorry just repeated what you wrote as I hadn't seen this yet.
They will lock and bold your phone. Pay $1000 a month to unlock and get access to your own data. They will sell it as "We listened to the EU. This is by far the most secure and private device ever. It is amazing. You'll love it". And the new Siri: you can now ask anything. She will remain silent: not ever you will receive a bad answer. 0% failure. It's amazing. You will love it, it saves you tos of time and turn your hectic life a tranquil oasis. ".
Its wild how long they milk the industrial design of the devices these days.
When the 16e was announced that was end of them shipping the SE which was a very minor variation on the design language from the iPhone 6 from 2014.
