      Can’t do it, it is too sane and user friendly. Best they can do is further reduce flexibility and add more AI.

    This is actually a great way to test customers reactions. Just leak your design and see what people are saying. Obviously you still have issues with some people being louder than other, but it’s still a nice way to test stuff without actually selling anything.

    This can IMO be both good and bad. Good if they take the existing design, thicken the body to make it flush with the camera modules and put a larger battery in that space; bad if they use the existing design and make the cameras thinner so that there’s no bump.

    But hey, we can’t talk much sense to manufacturers who are happy if we buy a new toy every year…

        NVMe in a phone would be something ridiculously inefficient both because of the form factor and the power draw.

    While removing the bump/bar thingy isnt a problem, please make it less ugly, it looks horrible.

      I’m not trying to disagree, it’s just that it kinda looks like a rounded rectangle? Like what would you want to see to make it more attractive? IMO it basically just looks like an iphone.

        Something about the cameras being in a random black rounded off rectangle is strange. You need some separation.

    Yay for another boring slab with zero distinguishing features!
