Yes, poor design where the obsession over thin phones over-took common sense and good design choices.Point being, maybe there is a reason they all have bumps...

We can refine the design, but that doesn't mean making it so thin, that it can easily bend, or the camera protudes outside of the body of the phone.but refinement until the next breakthrough in technology.
Making a MacBook, iPhone and Apple Watch thinner is progress and innovation.These numbers are all well and good for the wall street type folks, but for me as a consumer, I'd prefer seeing some innovation and some cool products. What I hope we DON'T see soon, is a thinner laptop, a thinner iPhone, a thinner watch, etc. Apple has shown itself that it can really make some great products, lets just give up on the thin design and make a design that will turn heads, but also function great.

I agree, that apple is about refining, and making the [insert product] better, but I think there can be a great design without making the product wafer thin
With the requirement of the lens to focus the light into the chip I don't see this phone bump going away unless you increase the phone's depth to even it out (could be fill with more battery space) or reduce the quality of the camera.That doesn't make it right, or something I want on my phone...![]()

Revenue and profit are not the same thing.

The Apple Car will displace the #2.
It doesn't bend. I guarantee you this.At this point, the Watch is the only product I can see benefitting from decreased thickness.
I already feel like my 15" RMBP will bend in half if I pick ip up just from the edge, it is PLENTY thin. If I wanted an even thinner laptop, I'd get a MB or MBA.
I think the AW is still on his "I need more power in a thinner design" period, agreed for the rest of the list.
That iDevice camera bump...![]()
Yikes - - look for another precipitous drop in Apple's stock price!note that Apple's annual profits of $53.4 billion were more than both companies earned combined.

How about Apple Watch band colors? LolThese numbers are all well and good for the wall street type folks, but for me as a consumer, I'd prefer seeing some innovation and some cool products.

Plenty of innovation in the worksAwesome news! I just hope that they'll put more of that income into R&D for some new/innovative products. Specifically the Mac lines.
CEO needs to be upgraded...its current outdated. LolApple is doomed!
But seriously...I hope they really bring it at WWDC. Lots of stuff in need of updates.
So refreshing so see some positivity on the forum. Keep up the good work!As a professional Apple user for over three decades, I think Apple is doing very well. I actually have no idea how many Apple computers I've owned and used daily over the years. But the current i7 27" iMac is the best overall (though I really would love to see an updated Mac Pro).
I also love the Apple ecosystem with iPhone, Apple Watch, iCloud, Apple Music, etc.
Just this morning I took my Honda CRV into the local dealer for its first oil change. I brought my 12" 2015 MacBook along so that I could continue working on our new website, built with Adobe Muse CC, while I waited. Using my iPhone 6S+ in personal hotspot mode on AT&T, I connected easily Back to My Mac, and it worked very well.
I love the newer MacBook with its thin form factor and beautiful screen. I think Apple's strategy of a "think client" is a good one. I don't need much local storage or RAM beyond its 8GB as long as I can connect with my iMac. I also can't remember the last time I made a CD or DVD.
