sure, spatial video will improve, still, looks ugly - doesn't mean I won't get one

iPhone 17 Pro Already Rumored to Have These 8 New Features

Not a fan of these renders, but Apple should do a killer job with the 17. That's because I'm waiting for an excuse to upgrade (USB-C is enough, frankly)
You seem to think that just because other phone manufacturers have those features, they're innovation. I mean, a pen for a phone? Really? You have 5 of those on each hand. Secondly, why are you writing on a screen that small?
I don't know, but aluminum is lighter and has better heat dissipation. The only functional advantage of SS and Ti over aluminum is rigidity, but I don't hear about base iPhones bending--but I do hear a ton about iPhone Pros being too heavy. I don't think Apple should have ever strayed from aluminum for any iPhone. I think the decision was mostly to have an arbitrary differentiator for the premium phones.
Yep my thinking too.
The 16 series was a rushed last minute adjustment in ram, I believe 8gb ram will not be enough very soon and Apple will go up to 12 or 16gb in the next models.
Given the current AI wont even be completed for another 6+ months , it made it easy to skip an upgrade as my old 12 Pro Max still works fine.
OK Apple, I am older than all of you. I LOVE Apple, it helped me make $, it made my life better, it allowed me to stop carrying a DSLR. Apple is genius. No negs. Being a fan of Apple is like being a fan of a high-performance car. I started developing software when the Apple two was released. It was a computer for those of us who had learned disabilities those of us who didn't understand the PC. Those of us wanted a trashcan icon those of us who wanted to be able to find our files when we saved them. Apple was genius and now they continue this absolutely astonishing company.
I absolutely prefer the titanium metals over aluminum. Reduces one more reason to upspend on a Pro model.
When there will be smartphones again and not a smartphone built around a camera?
In my use-case an iPhone 4-6 camera would be enough for the rare cases I need it.
But it's always about the camera getting better and better and bigger and bigger and it's one of the most expensive parts even in cheap Android phones.
And I also absolutely NEVER need a front camera.

And iOS will still fail against '90s cell phones and '80s answering machines by not providing audible NOTIFICATIONS OF MISSED CALLS.
My immediate thought was how "aged" the aluminium Watches look compared to the stainless steel ones.
What are Apple thinking? Too easily dented, too soft. I struggle to believe this rumour because of that.
If true the only consolation has to be that nearly everyone wraps them in rubber covers so the material is irrelevant.
Hmmm. I'm not sure I'd find such a notification helpful. When I get the call in the first place I have an audible (or vibrate) notification. If I missed that (noisy place) then I would also miss any audible reminders of the call until somewhere quiet. When I did go somewhere quiet I would likely look at my phone if just for a second to see if there were ANY notifications and would see the missed call.
With phone cameras and especially with this horizontal layout, I’d like Apple to make something groundbreaking - perfectly square camera sensors. Then the software can non-destructively crop the aspect ratio portrait or landscape afterwards.
That way with this aspect ratio users can take spatial videos (and any videos for that matter) and not worry about Vertical Video Syndrome. It’ll also make huge file sizes so Apple can sell you more iCloud storage.

We took aluminum and have transformed it into.........aluminium!!!! We think you are going to love it!
Hmm. Maybe I need to sign a document when I'm not carrying an ipad? Why not have the option?
Yeah, sorry but not interested in spending Pro prices for non-premium materials. It would be very odd if they abandoned Titanium after only 2 cycles as well.
