the main reason i like the force touch trackpad is that there isn't a hinge at top, it takes the same amount of force to make a click no matter where you do it. it's beautiful, and magical, and amazing.

yeah fair enough, avoiding the hinge took a bit of time getting used to but i don't have to click most of the time anyway when touch-to-click is enabled (is/was that by default?)

iPhone 4s (the best design) had a glass back, a correct reversion imo.

i'm still going to be mad if they dont have touch id built into the display

i remember seeing a patent filing for apple tech that would allow the user to use their fingerprint anywhere on the screen and if i have to use lovely faceid instead imma be real sad

they are switching to glass on the back because they are putting a touchid sensor on the back yeah

(i expect the above is very false, but it seems a rather random move to go back to glass backs)

it's because "wireless" charging is difficult or impossible with a metal back

ah, yeah, that makes perfect sense actually. lucky combination of features, i rather like the glass backs. never gotten the sense that you give up much in durability either, since you can't drop a glass-fronted phone too roughly whether with a metal or glass (though a bit of flex might be helpful, plastic phones still seem to be good for the overall durability of the thing)

I don't think it's a mass market product because you could fit like 200 grand worth of iphones in the container space of a single tv

[also nobody makes a 60" oled panel right now and there's only 2 factories that make them]

Apple Pay is great now that Americans have made using a chip card somehow worse than any other method of payment
