Ben Thompson says the camera bump (plateau?) is where all the brains of the iPhone Air reside, which is how it can be so thin. I assume then all that resides in the rest of the case is battery. Thompson pushes back as what he sees as negative opinions about the new phones, my guess is part of the negative reactions is that when you talk about a cost north of $1k it’s hard to feel value in incremental changes. The real solution is if you buy a new phone this year ignore the announcements about the next two years of phones. The iPhone 17 probably makes more sense to someone who owns an iPhone 15 or older. The manufacturers cannot make enough change to justify the upgrade from N-1 to N.
