Whats the point of a thin phone if...

[Joe Sixpack]

Yeah the Droid Maxx is about 20% thicker.

I agree that Apple should probably make the phone thicker, but it might not fit into the skinny jeans of the starbucks latte drinking crowd.

The batteries will continue to be shyt. At least for the 4.7 iPhone

Iphone 4 was ideal size and width, dunno why they had to switch it up so much

I think a 5 inch phone is perfect..

Like the HTC M8 to me was the perfect size phone

yeah maybe as a cell phone only. I'm not tryna get on a plane with no damn iphone 4.

I do feel like these companies are purposely making it thinner and weaker just for the title, with the assumption that everyone wants a phone case. I like my slim gel on the iPhone 6 but Id rather have a durable device

The removal of the headphone jack isn't just to sell people wireless headphones, it's because Apple wants to make a truly waterproof phone.

They really need to get off this whole "make it even thinner" BS they still be on. The iPhone 6S isn't even comfortable to hold in the hand naked. That shyt slips off your hands way too easily.

BS from Apple. I have a Sony water proof phone right now with a headphone jack and Bluetooth..They just want to sell the USB-C

Is the average consumer going swimming with their iPhone in their pocket...that sounds like bullshyt

Come to that nexus 6p

I don't know what you all are doing with your phones. I have an iPhone 6 4.7 inch, and get great battery life. I can get through a whole shcool/work day, and still have

enough battery life to not have to be looking for a charger. Even when I had my 4S it still gave me great, dependable battery life. The only phone I've had, so far, that

had shytty battery life was my Droid that I got way back in 2010. I do think that the iPhone 7 will see a significant improvement in battery life.

You do know you can make the ports resistant to water...including the headphone jack.

Going by your logic they'd have to remove the lightening port too.

They will eventually

 

[Panther]

Will the 7 finally have wireless charging?

 

[ahomeplateslugger]

making it thinner by removing the headphone is to get ppl on the wireless headphone train, probably put a bigger battery in there, make it waterproof and to sell more of their lightning charger. whatever the reason is, you can bet it's to put more money in their pockets and they probably have data showing this from phone reports

the phones are already thin so any thinner just ridiculous.

You know you don't have to put a case on it right?

It's probably for all the drunk idiots who somehow drop their phones in the toilet.

@ phone cases. Had a iPhone since '09 never had a ugly ass case. Dudes walking around with them ugly ass otter boxes like they in Iraq or some war zone.
