Return to aluminium being the main new "feature" after they've been selling it to us as "the cheap version" for decades. 🤣 Man, this company is completely lost

Ain’t buying it.

Would rather spend the money on anything else at the moment.

Why on gods green earth would we go back to aluminum that makes no sense

Starting to sound like a broken record here with that grotesque camera bump:
- The flash will cast shadows that don’t match the lens
- The mic can’t support audio mix
- The LiDAR has to be as close as possible to the lens so that they read info from the same POV
- The extra material for that long ass bar will cost Apple a lot
- Your fingers will naturally cover the lidar, flash and mic while you use it in landscape
- Titanium is already perfect and aluminum is a step back
- Two-tone materials just look bad and cost more
- There isn’t a single benefit to this design whatsoever (the lenses still protrude past the camera bump, so it will still rock on tables)

Not worth an upgrade from even 13 Pro. Apple will try to sell you the 17 Pros as something better. Nothing significant has been innovated. It was always about the money. We just went along because it was exciting and provided some utility. But there’s only so long you can stretch utility. Don’t give Apple the money.

They are forcing this useless design changes to differentiate the model visually because there are no new big features and the back design has been the same since iPhone 11.

Modern Apple is all about these manipulative tactics that have all to do with marketing and little to do with actual innovation.
