Too Early

We still very likely have two years until the iPhone 7 is released. Considering that we very likely won't see pictures of next year's iPhone shell until January-March 2015, it is way too early to even be considering prospective thickness levels of the iPhone 7.
 
please no lol. I hope they put focus on making the screen and battery life the best it can be next time around im good on the thinness.
 
Sadly, I'm certain they'll make it thinner and I'll have to continue to rely on battery cases. I really don't understand how people manage to get a full day's use out of their phones without one. I barely make it 7 hours on my iPhone 6 with light use.


This. I know when I'm flying and spending the days in airports I will need to invest in a Mophie case.
 
I wish the 6 had a few extra mm in thickness and a thicker battery - and call that the Plus for battery life.
 
I hope not but I think it will be, Apple seems to be obsessed with their mantra "thinner and lighter".

I'm waiting for delivery of my 6+, this will be the first iPhone I've owned where I'm going to put it in a case. Based on replies on this forum, I'm not alone. If the consumer is going to put it in a case, what's the point in making it thinner? I just don't get it. I'd take features over thinness.
 
I see FLIP-GATE with the 7 if it gets thinner. It won't just bend, but it will bend over and fold itself like a clam shell, hence the return of the flip phones.
 
I for one, want a thinner phone.

I'd be willing to sacrifice ram, battery life, whatever.


Thinner is the future, and apple is the only manufacturer to push those boundaries.
