This thread has turned into an acid test for exhibiting spectrum behaviour. There are a few fervent voices that don't see any issue at all, neither for themselves or others around them. They're perfectly entitled to share this vie

The iPhone 14 battery is considered user serviceable (but not the pro), the iPhone 15 pro has now adopted the 14's design. Basically the rear panel is now straightforward to remove, when before one had to go in through the front.

Although it would be speculation, I imagine this will be included because USB-C iPads already have this feature. One can charge a range of devices, including other iPads from a USB-C iPad. One can even change the charge direction between th

While the EU is a factor, the EU's mandatory ruling came too late to affect this product. In term's of iPhone release schedules only the iPhone 17 would fall into needing mandatory USB-C. The USB-3 controller is in the A17 chip an

That was one of the more realistic complaints about the vision pro, "why would you take photos with it instead of experiencing the moment directly". A few people suggested that the iPhone will probably come into the equation, and
