Why would the tri camera provide more depth?
There is one direction to provide depth within. Thus having it layed out differently doesn't improve it.
Cook philosophy is the bigger the bump the higher the price.

The Pixel doesn't have the best displays. Both Samsung and Apple have better displays.
Its called brand loyalty. Get them while they are young. Marketing 101. Its why Apple is a trillion dollar companyAnimojies and teenagers = Apple 2019.
If we judged iPhone design based on MR posters’ comments, every design since the 2 was a major step back. I guess you don’t remember how the 5 was shredded by MR posters for its poor, ill-thought-out, ugly as sin design.
As much as we hate this camera set up on the “R” model and the supposed leaked camera on the iPhone XI, this will stand out and everyone will know this is an iPhone. I think that’s what Apple is trying to achieve.

Blind Loyalty.
p.s. $938B as of 2p EST. You’re exaggerating.
Could be so simple and easy... doh
And guess what?!? You'll probably see a 30-50% improvement to battery life due to the slightly thicker size as well!
My last request would be to do a hole-punch style opening for the sensors in the front. No notch, no bump!
NOPE! Not allowed. Even though more battery life would be welcome, Jony refuses to not be the thinnest iPhone ever for .... I honestly don't know. Reasons I guess? What is this unwanted fixation with thin? Does Jony feel fat?
To be extremely clear: I believe that there are zero features on any $200 Android that beat the XR. Even the $400 Pixel 3a only has it on low-light photos, near as I can tell.
Further, I think the screen on the XR is amazing & highly doubt that cheap (say sub $200) Android phones have a better screen... unlike the claim by the OP that all cheap Androids have nicer (with regards to bezels) screens.
That’s literally the only spec he mentioned & I responded to- so your whole bizarre “if it makes you happy that one feature is better” comment has me bewildered.
I like how this is touting an additional lens and you're here spouting "zero improvements!"

I would need to see it with my own eyes before passing judgment because I don’t find Samsung to be the beat, over saturated is how I describe them usually.
It is nothing but a fallacy to claim OLEDS are so expensive they are only able to be on the highest of high end phones... created to warrant the ridiculously high pricing with your customers, and a massive boost to the profit margin of each device. IMO
I have an XR, I like the screen mostly that’s on it, but I would love an OLED and their is no reason but forced model separation and excuse for increased RRP as to why Apple can’t put a 1080P OLED on the XR.
I believe this to help believe the XR in 2020 will have an OLED screen.

I agree with this. It's the same thing over and over. Apple needs to innovate a bit more. I am bored with the iPhone. By 2019 release, the awful notch should be a horrible memory.
Exactly what I was thinking, you see all these manufacturers releasing phones with super cameras, bezel-less/notch-less, underscreen fingerprint, customizable OS, large battery life... and Apple is just so slow in incremental updates, they even took years to give a semi-decent base storage capacity.
Watch bands, emojis and "commitment to privacy" is not going to cut it any longer, especially if they keep increasing the price tag.
No glass backs or bumps.
Thicker body with bigger battery to eliminate the bump.
Maybe even a little protruding edge on the front edges so cracked screen are minimized!
Would be a perfect case-less phone.
O yea, and iPhone SE size with full front screen!

Glad they are continuing to improve the XR. A real improvement, however, would come from lowering the price by $100-$150, especially in light of the recent offerings by Samsung, OnePlus, and Google. The XR needs to be a $600-$750 max phone.
This is fake as hell and has ZERO chances of becoming reality.
Apple already has a smaller and more beautiful design for 2 cameras + 1 flash in the current phones.

Could you explain how it’s completely false? Maybe that would be more suggestive if you can elaborate specifically what you’re saying versus what I am saying.
I agree
My thoughts on this is, the XS/Max will still be in the lineup and apple needs to distinguish those devices, from a design perspective.
Good design? well that’s up to the person. I think it’s a lot of wasted space. But it quickly tells the consumer “this is the new 2019 iPhone design with new cameras” and doesn’t look like the XS is they know it’s not the last gen device
I wonder how the lineup will look this year...or if apple will simply replace the products at price points as they did last year with the XS replacing the X, or will they go even more premium?
