604: Minimized Embiggening

Well, they did say the batteries are both larger. They just didn't say how much larger. Right. They just didn't say capacity-wise. The iPhone 16 is 170 grams. So again, 16 Pro, $199. Plain old 16, $170. If you want a light phone, get the one that has one fewer camera and is smaller and is made of aluminum.

Hey, graphite sheet. Hey, every year they said it's going to happen. No vapor chamber yet, but this was the year. Graphite sheet, improved cooling. They're doing something. Like I said, they did something on the 16, and they did something even more on the 16 Pro. We'll see how it works out, but it's good to see them addressing this year over year. Every year they're making a new phone.

Rumors even nailed the name. I got to give props on that because it's so hard to get these names because it's marketing, you know, like the supply chain doesn't need to know the name. But I guess it gets printed on the packaging at some point. So, yeah, they nailed it. Desert Titanium is the brown.

And I have to say, looking at both Apple's product shots and all the videos of the hands-on area, it does not look brown. So that spy shot we have where it looked like brown, brown, brown, obviously different lighting colors look different or whatever. Desert Titanium, like all the pro phones, looks so pale. that you were like, is that the white one? Is that the gray one?

Like, you have to look at the rim around, like, the edge of the phone or the little circles around the cameras to even tell that it's supposed to be the brown one. They all look white, except for the black one.

Yeah, so at this point in the presentation, the question everybody had, and I had as well, was even though they're listing all this stuff, I'm like, well, wait a second. So we got two new chips this year, A18 and A18 Pro, neither one of which has been in a phone before. All built on, you know, TSMC's...

just versions of the a18 where all the parts work and i think eventually in the presentation apple made it clear that is not the case they obviously share a ton but a the a18 is not just a a18 pro with parts that don't work as far as anyone has been able to tell now maybe when they cut these things open we'll see i guess it's conceivable they could be but there's so there are enough differences that i think that can't possibly be true
