If you like the current mute switch you probably don’t have, 1) short fingernails, 2) large hands or 3) don’t have a case. The current mute switch implementation has been annoying to operate since it’s inception and good luck seeing the orange chip if you have a red phone or a case,  I think a solid state switch with option for a long-touch with haptic feedback would be great.
As for the volume controls, I wonder if they could implement a slider effect using the solid state button? Also, many people use the volume+power buttons to take screenshots. How would this work if all buttons are solid state?

Would Android phones be required to provide Apple Pay option?
as for non Apple related political comments, that’s what Apple News is for. Don’t feed the trolls

Apple’s is $300 more but is smaller, lighter, way more attractive, and has tons of added features, from speakers to the camera to Center Stage, brightness, etc. Seems like the value proposition is there. 

Older LG has camera and speakers. But why is this comparison even relevant if the LG is discontinued? What are the similar AND available alternatives to the studio display when purchasing a Mac Studio or Mini?

Nobody drives in New York anymore. There’s too much traffic.

I’ve read that the new watch sizes will be incompatible with current watch bands. That’s going to piss off a lot of Apple Watch owners if true.

Nah. Watch bands are like iPhone cases. Always fun to get new ones and the old ones never fit your new phone. Even better, you actually get a new watch band when you buy a new watch, you don’t get a case with your new iPhone.
