Hey Apple, thinner is not always better

Apple just launched the thinnest iPad ever, and if reports are to be believed, this is just the start. The tech giant may focus on making the next iPhones, MacBook Pros, and Apple Watches significantly thinner over the coming two years. It wouldn’t be the first time that a manufacturer has become obsessed with device dimensions, but do we really need the thinnest iPhone ever?

You can insert your own innuendo, but thinner is not always better. Unless you have the clingiest of sartorial tastes, the iPhone 15 already fits easily into your pocket or purse. Does it need to be thinner to fit somewhere else? With your phone largely making your wallet redundant, we don’t need it to be as thin and light as a credit card.
