Not only are this year’s rumors leading to an underwhelming, iterative device, but next year’s rumors are already pointing to the same underwhelming, iterative devices. No wonder iPhone 14 Pro Max sales were down Q1 2023.
Fine, but don’t screw the people who bought into the multi-device strategy and purchased an iPhone to use as a phone, an iPad to use as a tablet and a MacBook to use as a Mac. We don’t need or want oversized iPhones.
iPhone 13 Pro Max should have been repackaged as iPhone 14 Plus instead of what we actually got... Not that it affects me since I have iPhone 14 Pro Max...
I am suggesting to have this as the 15 series lineup:
iPhone 15 Ultra - 6.9"
iPhone 15 Plus - 6.7"
iPhone 15 Pro - 6.3"
iPhone 15 - 6.1"
iPhone 15 mini - 5.5"
Either they drop the iPhone SE or reuse iPhone XR and market it as iPhone SE 2024

Floating notch! 🙄🤦♂️,..seriously a marketers dream.
Aren't we jumping the gun here? Larger display does not necessarily mean a bigger handset. Reducing the bezel size could also garner the same outcome.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess 🤷♂️,..not a fan of any Notch no matter how you market it.
well damn. I purposefully went down from a max to a regular pro because I was sick of lugging around a brick. The regular pro feels just right. Perfectly in the Goldilocks zone for me. And when I got it I said to myself “I hope they don’t go and make the phones any bigger cause this is perfect”
Feels like they’re out of ideas so they just make phones slightly larger to say “hey look at this new feature. A larger screen!” Great. Didn’t ask for it

I hate watching 2:1 or 18:9 content on Galaxy S10+ as well as on iPhones with notches and the pill, but I have to put up with it since the latest and greatest has a telephoto lens and a display cutout... However, using the supposed edge to edge displays on an iPad in an iPhone would seem to be a step backwards...
Makes a lot of sense.
As the market matures, Apple will find more ways to push the consumer past the $999 mark.
Conversely, new midrange and SE iPhones will be stripped from more and more features/specs by comparison.
This is how you keep total revenue from dipping.

Hopefully the physical dimensions don't increase much.
It’s time for landscape Home Screen to return. Gonna get my 13 Pro Max battery replaced at the endo of this year and keep it pushing
mini won’t come back.
There’s only been rumors of Ultra in addition the current line-up.
Mainstream consumers didn’t buy enough minis at $699 for a 5.5 display when they cold pay $799 and get a bigger display and bigger battery.
mini can only return as an SE. But SE rumors point towards a new Xr or 11.
mini 15 not(!) happening in 2023, that’s for sure.
I should upgrade my 12 mini 256gb to a 13 mini 512gb before they become hard to find...
Mini is still the best iPhone ever but why you want that stupid island? why not remove the notch or the island! full screen clean.

I just thought of something… Do you know what this world and iPhone Mini Fans need?
iPhone Mini Ultra 🎤
Interesting... I wonder if we are getting a new redesign this year or next year?

How are we supposed to take selfies and FaceTime? 🫤
Sure. You and the other 10 people.
And all that fantastic front camera tech will go where? The under-screen tech is not quite ripe yet. 🤷🏻♂️

The reachability mode is a joke, can’t even dial a number and make a call in that half baked mode.
