Other What if regulators push for an iPhone without iOS?

Coming soon to an iPhone near you. Huawei's Harmony OS.

A well-written article, thanks. And I'm not really expecting Apple to license or sell their processor cores or entire chip designs to anybody or do anything else to strengthen the ARM ecosystem. Just daydreaming about an A16 powered Raspberry Pi. Would make a nice small Minecraft server.

Your best bet for that is an iPhone 14 Pro running Minecraft as its sole function. Sadly, a costly thing to pull off.

You might be better off grabbing a 13 mini from the Apple Certified Refurbished iPhone section of the Apple Online Store. A15, even with fewer GPU cores and 4GB of RAM instead of 6GB, is no slouch.
