he's did the courage speech, the "can't innovate my rear end" where three years later turned out they didn't innovate anything and in fact almost ruined the pro market

now this...

to be fair I also really liked my blackberry keyboard, but I am a proven idiot so

yeah modern iphone with noise cancelling and modern signal processing literally means you have way better voice quality with more stable calls while using less power


people who thinks older phones has better reception or voice quality are idiots

I remember I used to put my Blackberry near a sound source and it would generate all sorts of weird sounds when it received a call

Wonder what that did to my brain

the most infuriating part of this is that they made the right hand side bezel a button for power+touch id and the left side is an identical looking area that does nothing but take up space and force the soft esc key over an inch from where you'd expect it to be

ffs, just make the left side a hard esc button if you need it to look symmetric

there's an article about how Apples can't really innovate too much without leaks because their phone sells a loving hundred million units , so anything new you want to add to the phone is inevitably going to be leaked

and apparently it might be proof that there's an iPhone pro coming for sure
