iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max Feature More Repairable Design With Removable Back Glass

[Sophisticatednut]

design does not have to very different.
i don't think you work in manufacturing.

See how easy it was for them to fix.

Here you have the back. Two screws and suction cup

And here the exact same thing😱. So hard to do…

Same with the internal storage. A single screw. It’s mind blowing Apple is capable of producing such marvellous products with replaceable parts.

Considering how many phones will be made in India, it'll be interesting if this will become a useful or useless feature.

You forgot that the iPhone15 and 15Plus still only support USB 2 over that new USB-C port.

USB 2 came out in 1999. That's 24 years with the same data transfer speeds.
USB 3 came out in 2008. That's the year the iPhone 3G was released.

Not only did Apple not update to USB-C, they also didn't upgrade to USB 3 even when they changed to Lightning in 2012.

In 2012 I would choose USB2.0 Lightning over USB3.0 MicroUSB or USB-B for my phone.

If you want 3.0 on the base phones, wait till next year when they get the A17.

There is NO such regulation, only being proposed at this point. And if this passes and is enforced get ready for radical design changes in ALL smartphones. We are rapidly moving to mobile devices designed by bureaucrats. I shudder at what they will look like.

Best of both worlds. Because women are forced to carry purses and cell phones, we at government house believe this is the single solution you should all be using, the Radio Shack CT-1055;

Incorrect. The law passed in the European Parliament in June this year.

It was passed in the parliament with 587 votes in favor, only nine against, so it has significant support.

There are already a few smartphones with replaceable batteries, design does not have to very different.

They won’t stop. It will go on and on and… Klaus Schwab won’t be happy until he forces manufacturers to design phone software and OSes that make you — unwittingly — crave a bowl of bugs.

That’s also completely wrong.

Nobody is going to force feed you bugs, you should read the source for that instead of repeating hearsay.

And klaus Schwab doesn’t have any power.

 

[adammusic]

are you ready to take a performance hit in return for replaceable RAM & SSD ?

What?

 

[haemolysis]

Will be interesting to see them release this models repair prices. It bet they don’t reduce significantly lol.

I guess if you ignore the speeches he gives, the books he writes, and is “Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum”, then yes you are correct. He never said those types of things, never “suggested” anything like it, and has no power.

And people like his buddy Bill Gates is experimenting with liquid cancer, I mean printed meat because he wants better looking dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets.

If you can replace the battery you may as well add back the the expandable storage bay and keep the sim tray - just in case. Then add the easily removable plastic back cover! Like going back 15 years.


Actually I bought a phone like that two years ago and you can still buy it! You can also remove the modem if you want. It has these tiny switches where you can turn off the microphone and the cameras, modem and so on. All for 150 bucks….. And USB-C!


Fully EU compliant!

Check out the Fairphone, it actually has very good specs and you can user replace almost everything.

WEF is a private organization and not a government. He or rather the WEF have less power than Apple or Microsoft.

No need to ignore anything. You just need to read the actual source for all these that isn’t originally from him, but work published by others on the WEF.

You can read the WEFs mission statement for 2030.

And why would you think printable or lab grown meat is cancerous? Anything that shows that to be the case? It’s just a potentially cheaper, efficient, healthier and environmentally friendlier to just grow the meat you want to eat instead of wasting resources on the things we don’t eat or consume.

I always find it funny that it’s always perceived as impossible to do anything better and more efficiently without going back to how it was 20 years ago when it’s already done today

Still wondering why there's glass on the back of iPhones at all. Why not metal or plastic on the back? Why coat a really expensive device with something slippery and fragile?

The Fairphone is the phone Apple would make if it was truly as altruistic of a company as it pretends to be.

It still needs to be able to transmit and receive signals, so metal is no-go. And plastic is… plastic

This is a great move by Apple.

You are 100% correct that Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum have no official power. They lack the legal or legitimate power that, say, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund or the European Parliament in Brussels, Belgium have.

But you’d have to be willfully blind to believe that the WEF, Klaus Schwab and his “Minion in Chief” Yuval Noah Harari have no power.

I am the opposite of a Conspiracy Theorist (I’m not a “9/11 Truther,” etc.), so I base my beliefs on facts that are a matter of public record, not “hearsay” as you so accused me.

It is a fact that “15 Minute Cities” are being implemented in at least 16 cities worldwide. (Paris and Shanghai are among the more prominent ones).

It is a fact that China has been praised by Klaus Schwab as the ideal model for governance and society under a global government regime.

It is a fact that the WEF published a paper originally titled “Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better.” This is a verifiable fact.

So far, this is but the “tip of the iceberg,” but I will not go on, as MacRumors frowns upon using these forums for “political debate,” even though many WEF policies, if implemented like many are now, will make your iPhone or other digital device central to their efforts to control and track people, how they spend their “digital currency” and on what they spend it, and such events as store transactions being declined if a person attempts to buy something deemed “unhealthy” or otherwise “unfit.”

For reasons I’m not rich enough, elite enough and globally powerful enough to understand, it’s undeniable that Klaus Schwab and the WEF wield enormous power globally. The evidence is clear for those willing to acknowledge it.

To fail to recognize this is to be willfully ignorant (which Klaus, Yuval Noah Harari, et al. and the WEF are very much counting on, so Good on You).

Much of this might sound like dystopian “Conspiracy Theory,” but as my Dad always said, “Truth is stranger than fiction.”

Lab grown meat may not be cancerous, but, scientifically, it qualifies as a tumor. 😝

As I said before, it’s no difference than other corporations then.

It is a fact that “15 Minute Cities” are being implemented in at least 16 cities worldwide. (Paris and Shanghai are among the more prominent ones).

There nothing inherently wrong with having walking access to services without the necessity of cars. In a way how almost every European city is designed. Living spaces mixed with working spaces, especially older parts that existed before cars was as common

It is a fact that China has been praised by Klaus Schwab as the ideal model for governance and society under a global government regime.

Well he can praise them as much as he want, won’t change parliamentary systems in Europe necessarily considering how the political power is split

It is a fact that the WEF published a paper originally titled “Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better.” This is a verifiable fact.

I have read that, have you? It was written by

Ida AukenMember of Parliament, Parliament of Denmark (Folketinget)

Aka not the WEF. And it was a predictive essay.

I don’t know why you would fear this considering you are already tracked with all the social media information you provide. Banks in the U.S. currently prevent you from having access to an account if you have the wrong ideas etc.

Much of is illegal where I live. And anything you spend is already tracked and have been for decades. We have a much bigger trust in our government compared to Americans

This is also a prediction where we would essentially live under AI algorithmic analysis to predict what people will think.

Essentially an AI algorithm would enforce direct democracy to the extreme by predicting the will of the people instead of voting.

Well… tumour is cells growing without function. Lab grown meat is just muscles in a dish…. So?
