the iphone absolutely does not need to get thinner

remember before iphone came out phones were all trying to compete on size while becoming shittier and shittier to use because the small sized looked great but meant everything else sucked (razr) until stebe went 'gently caress that noise lets compete on functionality instead'

well that apple died from the cancer too and started competing on dimensions again and now iphone 6 is both too big and too skinny to comfortably use with one hand without a case gently caress you timb

it's true, even people with eminently treatable cancer who decide to use actual effective treatment methods still tend to become quite thin. not many people realize this

I'm looking forward to apple making legacy 3.5mm headphone jacks obsolete

in a year or two they'll even be able to remove it from the macbook :unsmith:

on the off chance stymie is right, there will almost certainly be lightning to aux/headphone adapters.

which is annoying and why i doubt it will happen

The range on most wireless headphones is horrible but I guess that's not a problem for a phone where it's probably never going to be further than like 10 feet. Still aren't the transmitters for wireless headphones a little more power-consuming than regular headphones. Especially if they use Bluetooth. Won't that make the battery life shittier.

bluetooth low energy is only for intermittently sending small packets of a few kilobytes at most, streaming audio still needs the full power version

that's why if you have any bluetooth headphones or speakers or whatever that advertise bluetooth 4.0 compatibility is probably just deceptive marketing, because 4.0 is literally just 3.1 + low energy

bt audio seems buggy in a way I can't quite reproduce reliably - like, sometimes things will sound off because they're coming through the bt source at a lower pitch or play slower or cut out intermittently

i think apple could probably figure out how to make it decent b/c it might just be a lovely bt stack at work

they're probably removing the headphone jack in an attempt to prop up beats headphone sales in addition to making the phone inadvisably thinner

no, like there's a button and if you push it, stebe appears (healthy) and is like "hello, it's me stebe" and tim cook slumps over dead at the same time
