People considering ‘cancelling’ new iPhone order after seeing comparison between older generation::Some have noticed the new iPhone 15 is not as strong or as durable as the older generations of iPhones.
How does this deserve to be called a news article??
I wish there was a way to block everything from ladbible on here
On sync I’m able to filter out any domain, if that’s an option you’re open to.
Anyone else find it really hard to take articles seriously when they obviously haven’t proofread it at all?
“iPhone q5” etc.
You know what? I’ll accept that. That’s a decent indicator that the article was written by a human who missed the 1 key and hit the Q key just below it, and not a chatbot.
Why someone keeps chasing the latest gadgets when the old ones work just fine is beyond me.
Nobody is waiting every year for the brand new line of washing machines. Why is there a need to swap phones this frequently?
Good point, I need to check when the new washing machine from LG is being released.
Back when smartphones actually had big leaps in tech in made sense pre 2015 or so. Now, it’s very small interative changes. It makes no sense.
People who preorder a phone are out of their fucking mind, simple as that.
You have to if you want the device in the next month or so. The model I was looking at slipped to November less than 24 hours after pre-orders started.
Steel ( including stainless) is up to twice as stiff as titanium - meaning it flexes half as much under load for the same thickness/shape. It’s also almost twice as heavy. To get a rigid material that is also lightweight, you need to look at exotic alloys like beryllium-aluminum, but the trade off I’d often poor toughness (fracture resistance) and difficult manufacture.
I like iPhones but titanium does seem like an odd choice. Sure it looks nice but who daily drives a $1000 phone without having it wrapped in a case anyway? Feels like a sales tactic.
I mean, a lot of people. I have a pixel fold I use naked, and when I had iPhones I never used a case. I paid a lot for the phone, I’m not gonna cover it in a piece of tpu. They also just make phones even more unwieldy than they already are. If you have kids I get it I guess.
The titanium was added to make it more lightweight vs stainless steel. It’s more durable for its weight but the phones seem to be less durable overall.
