I still would take an extra mm for more battery life. At this point it's no difference if it's a bit thinner.

Also I want my OS to be an actual OS with root access. I want Linux in particular.

"The only thing we bothered changing in the new model is we added a robot that hoovers even more of your data and then lies to you confidently!"

I totally forgot it even had that. The people I talk to only talk about the new side button.

Fuck Siri with ChatGPT. I just want third party app notifications to actually play a sound and vibrate on my watch again. I really hope the next iOS update will fix that. I'm not the only one with this issue currently.

Give me back my physical keyboard, and I'll be happy alongside better battery life (or removable batteries).

The last thing I want is a phone I can mistake for a table mat when I'm tired, which I feel is how phones are going. What's the new average screen size now? 27" or is that next year's model?

I just got a 16 Pro. I still have my 7 Plus. Form factor of 7 plus is still the best of any of the iPhones, for my money. It feels THE best in-hand.
