Maybe this will take off like hotcakes but I'm in the "I don't think this does anything for me / anyone" camp. Granted I loved the 13 mini and that didn't sell

Maybe this will take off like hotcakes but I'm in the "I don't think this does anything for me / anyone" camp.
Granted I loved the 13 mini and that didn't sell so who knows.
- jboggan 1y agoI lament my 13 mini coming to the end of its lifespan. Good design.
- Jonovono 1y agoSame. I have 12 mini and got a 13 mini refurb. Perfect phone.
- scyzoryk_xyz 1y agoI have mine right here. Upgraded away from iOS but not because it came to the "end of it's lifespan"
- kentiko 1y agoI attempted to replace my 13 mini's battery today using the iFixit kit. I broke the OLED panel doing so. Removing the screen take much more force than I though. I did this hopping to keep my iPhone maybe 2 more years. Now I am waiting for ordering the 17 next Friday. I will have to manage having half of my screen being white until then...
- eviks 1y ago> Removing the screen take much more force than I though. Sorry, how is applying less force more dangerous? (in general, wish the force meters would be widespread so that iFixit kit just had a monitor with a number and a beeper once you reach the needed force level)
- noncoml 1y ago"It starts at $999 for 256GB", I on the other hand am in the "prices gotten ridicilous" camp
- mhb 1y ago> Granted I loved the 13 mini It is almost as good as the (smaller) first gen iPhone SE with the physical button.
- ortusdux 1y agoThe group this does something for is the shareholders. Apple is still a product company, but their number one offering is AAPL.
- dghlsakjg 1y ago… shareholders who expect Apple to sell phones that people want.
- matt-attack 1y agoIt’s clear that super thinness is a technology imperative necessary to get Foldable IPhones. In order to fold, you first must solve thinness (since the final decide will be 2x once folded). Apple focusing on thinness is proof to me a foldable phone is next.
- moomoo11 1y agoWhy do phones need to bend?
- jagged-chisel 1y agoBecause. Seriously. Take a look at the foldable touchscreen phones that do exist. "Because" is the only answer.
- oblio 1y agoWouldn't you want a moderately priced device weighing under 200g with a big screen? I would. It would be great for reading books everywhere.
- jagged-chisel 1y agoKindle
- oblio 1y agoAwesome, can I fit in my pocket and will I have it with me at all times?
- jagged-chisel 1y agoIf you acquire men’s clothing with proper pockets, yes. The second part is entirely up to you.
