A new rumor claims that Apple will use the stacked battery technology on the iPhine 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models which will bring massive gains.

Would be huge if true

    I think modern Apple, with all the faults they do have, are finally moving away from the thinnest designs possible.

    I think it’s more like they’ve just reached the limit. devices can only get so thin before they are too fragile and awkward to hold.

      But they’re not maintaining the limit, they’re actively making them thicker. I think they are trending in the opposite direction now.

      And mind you, the iPhone 6 was the thinnest and it had the bending issue and all that… But the iPod Touch 4 was even thinner but had a much stronger body, was cheaper, and had the same A4 processor as the flagship iPhone at the time it was released.

      It’s not impossible to make a super thin device that also feels good and is durable.
