iPhones have become too thick and heavy, imho.
Do you all know how amazing an iPod Touch feels in hand?

I really miss the iPhone 13 mini form factor😟 The iPhones have seriously become too thick and heavy. I really do not need 3 lenses. I need a smaller and lighter phone with a flush camera lens.
I would prefer single proper lens and bigger sensor than crappy additional lenses and small sensor.
Give me a mini slim phone!
But I know they won’t so I’m holding on to my mini as long as I can.
It works as a charm now, so no hurry.
Pls Apple make phones for us who not use our phones as professional cameras.
Some just want a small good phone - a normal good camera works fine for me.

What they won‘t do but I‘d prefer is make a thicker phone with a much bigger battery.
I don‘t see the value of thinner if the camera island remains as thick.
The only way to improve ipad Air ergonomics e.g. would be to do away with the camera island or just remove it. I never need the back camera but it changes the height. So I have to use it with a case. Otherwise it is already sooo thin. Not really an improvement if you shrink the body 1 mm.

I don’t want to be rude, but I think your sources are pretty behind on their intel if you’re only getting information about iPhone 20…
I was going to wait, but I’m happy to share that I have it on good authority that iPhone 21 will build on the features you mentioned for iPhone 20 by actually getting rid of the screen entirely.
An early but reliable source suggests that with iPhone 22 they will get rid of the device as well, and you will just receive an empty box with a QR code to a virtual experience that makes it feel like you have a phone. Unclear how that will work but the eco impact of shipping a box without the phone is going to be amazing for Apple’s 2030 sustainability goals.
Beyond that I have no known rumors but one can only assume iPhone 23 will just be a website where you pay money and get nothing in return. The ultimate offering in sustainable cellular technology.
This makes absolutely zero sense. A thinner iPhone that sits atop the iphone pro? 😂 i doubt that. They’ll just make the iphone pro thinner like they did with the recent M4 iPad Pros.
Looool. That’s why watching these videos is a waste of time.
but I have to pull you up on one thing. I heard the iPhone 20 is going to be Apples best phone ever.
One of the most cringe worthy videos…

iPhone SE
An iPhone for those who want just the basics and are on a budget.
iPhone
An iPhone for those who have a bigger budget and want more power and features.
iPhone Pro
An iPhone for those who want the best cameras and features
iPhone Ultra-thin
An iPhone for those who just need a screen to interact with, for payment solutions in restaurants, inventory taking, delivery, gps, etc. Battery life is not essential because the iPhone can stay docked when on breaks or while driving.

irl i’ve never heard a single person in my life even mention them. you can only watch them on that stupid toy. maybe if they did something else with them, but as it stands now they just take up more storage for no reason.
Hartley is ready to dump his AirPods Max for a Sonos Ace because Apple's failed to iterate on the Max for years now. If the rumors are true and Apple really is going to release a virtually identical Max with only the most minor of changes, they will be blowing a chance at market share gains.
Sucks because I've been excited for Max and agree with Hartley that the Ace seems like Max without all the problems.

I rather get an iPhone Fat that can interchanging parts and no glass back... perhaps then I can use my phone without a case
