No way Apple makes a phone and calls it “slim”.   That name sounds stupid. I thought the rumors are it will be called “air”,  if it even exists.  How about bringing back the 5.8 inch screen size.  Big enough to look good and yet still somewhat easy to use with one hand by many peiple.

Oh, it's just Apple's desperate last ditch effort to force iPhone owners to upgrade to the 16 and salvage a disastrous phone that absolutely no one is buying and Apple is doomed. 

No one is buying the iPhone 16? Where did you read that?

I’m sure that Charles is being sarcastic

The discovery I've made this morning. I've switched off Enhanced Visual Search toggle in Photos settings and my battery usage is back to the level it used to be before iOS 18.

An interesting setting.  I have to wonder if the phone goes out on cell or WiFi talking back to Apple every time a picture is taken.  Or,  if this is a background process on a schedule.  Either way,  yeah this could use battery.

The “spoofing” of phone numbers has got to stop.  The telecom industry and phone makers need to tackle and fix that once and for all.

You know what would really disrupt things? Suppose you could plug your iPhone into a USB-C cable on a dock and you get a basic desktop experience. Wireless keyboard and mouse, and a display of your choice. Nothing too complicated, web surfing, emails, watching videos. No gaming, and no desktop publishing. Possibly basic photo editing with the photos app, but no Photoshop. Think about how many fewer devices you would have to carry around. I understand why Apple wouldn't do it, but wouldn't it be awesome if that was possible? 

I appreciate your idea but don’t think I like the idea of my phone being “one stop shopping” for everything and my only device.  I realize your comment says it would be limited, but you know what will happen,  users will want more and more.
Such a thing could make the phone less stable and have people wanting antivirus on their phones.  Do you want that?  I don’t.

  I like separation of phone and laptop\desktop.   Back in the 20th century I remember hearing the idea of Windows NT and its “roaming” profile will change everything.  Your desktop will be there,  no matter where you log in.  It never really worked or took off, at least for the company I work for.
