More Tiny World please!

Makes sense to me — for such an expensive device, an inspection would be necessary.

What replaces the swipe up gesture after FaceID accepts your face?  Do you click an icon, or press a key?  TouchID only needs you to rest your finger on the key and nothing else.

I hope this doesn’t prevent third party battery solutions.  I think a good setup would be a box/pad with a built in battery, where you can just swap out existing Mag Safe battery packs.

I think the device had to be released this way — little compromises on the technology and bigger compromises on the form factor.  This is the baseline for the visual experience — now they can find out how the device is being used and then focus on reducing weight and cost based on the primary use cases.

What if putting on the device was as simple as putting on a cap?  If the weight was reduced 10-20%, would this be enough?  Apple has a roadmap for this, but they need to find out how users are interacting with it.  Similar story with the Mac.  You could reject the technology for not being quite there, or you can embrace it and find the opportunities that are being seeded.
