Agreed. They need to ditch 3D Touch (the sticking point for cramming a full 6S into a 5S case, afaik) and have three otherwise identical iPhones with different screens, ditto for iPads.

- stock_toaster 11y agoI would prefer they instead make "deep press" do the same thing as "long press", for devices that support it. That seems far more useful than the "peek and pop" thing 3D touch currently does.
- zepto 11y agoHow does taking away that feature so that the low end iPhone 'matches' the high end ones provide any value whatsoever to anyone?
- xirdstl 11y agoSome of us prefer the smaller size but would otherwise like the same features. I would certainly agree that 3D touch is the one feature I could definitely do without. I never use it on my 6S.
- DigitalJack 11y agoI've heard people say they don't use it. I've recently come back to iphone after a year with a moto x. I love 3d touch. Particularly using the keyboard as a virtual trackpad on the phone (for moving the cursor around in text areas). I also use it extensively in safari, on both the iphone and macbook pro. I don't use the mail app, and it didn't seem helpful there... what good is a popup of a message if my thumb is blocking the view? But the keyboard cursor and safari are pretty handy. I could see it working well with app shortcuts on the home screen too, but I guess I haven't found a need yet.
- zepto 11y agoBut how would taking that feature away from other users make any difference to you?
- minikites 11y agoBecause the only two things that distinguish an SE from a 6S is 3D Touch (a stupid gimmick) and the newer TouchID sensor (I assume because of supply constraints). Everything else is the same.
- zepto 11y agoHow would making them the same by taking away features add value for anybody?
- DigitalJack 11y agoI like 3d touch and use it often on both my phone and macbook pro.
