Reading on different Apple sites, it's hilarious. People are acting like they are being sued. Crazy to watch how cult members react. I mean it's unhealthy but it is what it is.

I don't get the fanboy culture around phone manufacturers. None of them have done anything innovative in a decade. They're just adding more cameras and trying to make them thinner even though I'm pretty sure most people don't care about either.

Phones have stopped getting thinner like 10 years ago

I'd prefer they make it fatter if the battery would last more than a day as consequence.

They literally have done that. For example iPhone 15 Pro Max is 12.5mm thick. The iPhone 6 (thinnest iPhone ever made) was 7mm.

There are several iPhones with different batteries but the largest one is 17Wh. The iPhone 6 had a 7Wh battery.

That’s what they do. Compare an iPhone 6 to the current ones, you’ll see they’ve gotten fat
