Fragile prototypes? And then he decided not to do anything about it and sell them as is?
I will mever forgive the world for creating an inferior product and get hailed as a genius for it.
Bring back buttons, and screens that don’t shatter from being sneezed at.
Buttons? Ew.
I have consistently been Luddish about moves like this (removign physical keyboard, eliminating phone jack, even the tablet form factor in general) but I think I was mostly wrong, and monimizing hardware features in favor of software seems to improve user experience.
I only disagree with the removal of 3.5mm and microSD ports, and removable batteries. Imo the ports are both 100% needed and the battery would be nice, though I understand waterproofing is important. I’m fine with screens and no physical keys, though I would like a camera cover switch for at least one of the two cameras if possible, like laptops are starting to have.

Yeah, and what’s up with these transistors? I want vacuum tubes in my iPhone!
