Not a fan of brushed metal but if I get this thing it's going to be in a case 99.5% of the time anyway so no worries.

Yea but, like a lot of these features, how often are most Americans going to be at risk for roadside issues (cars are more reliable than ever) in a place without cell signal?

Going to be pretty rare for the vast majority of iPhone buyers. This is a manufactured demand. But that doesn't mean folks won't snap it up.

Also can you imagine how long it would take AAA to show up if you were in a place that didn’t have any cell towers?

I have not had a case on my phone since iphone 6 which is the only phone I put a case on.

I hated that iteration. Stupidest design by far. Make it round, and slippery.

Titanium will be cool so it will spark when you drop it on concrete.

Honestly metal makes more sense for the back of a phone than glass any ways.

There a geographical reasons why some places don't have cell signal that aren't particularly remote. The road into Estes Park just got cellphone coverage this year.

OK, this is what I am talking about. Apple has been a shambling corpse for years.

This loving bullshit BUTTON is a solution seeking a problem. No one will use it for anything but ring/silent. You can't just introduce a complete new interface element like this that improves/solves nothing. But it kept people busy for a year.

Absolute waste of everyone's time.
