    It’s amazing how many people just love to bitch about iPhones in . . . Places for iPhone news.

    By “breakthrough”, they mean that when it’s sitting on a flat surface and you accidentally put something on top or push too hard in the middle, it suffers a breakthrough.

    Next month: outrage over iPhones that bend when you sit down with them in your back pockets from millions of iPhone users who didn’t see it coming somehow.

      Ulefone Power Armor 24.

      22,000mAh. Headphone jack. IR blaster. Night vision camera. 1000 lumen flashlight. FM radio (that doesn’t need headphones for an antenna). 60 watt recharging.

      It will also serve as a power bank, recharging lesser phones.

      Despite 22 hours of streaming video, battery life was 91 hours on my last test. I have no doubt it would last a full week of casual use.

      1" thick. 1.42lbs.

    Not crazy about this one.

    I would like it if the camera bump wasn’t 3x the base width of the phone.

    That’s not going to work in flat wireless chargers, it’s not going to sit flat on any surface, and it’s so much of a differential a case won’t cover it.

      That’s alright. They’ll sell you the new iCharger designed just for the iPhone 17 for only $99

      Phone feels less like a brick in your pocket. I think it’s a good compromise to sacrifice a bit of battery for a thinner, lighter device.

      Sales and marketing are based on having something different to sell. (Not necessarily better) They’ve been running out of things to change.

    I miss my Nextel that I could literally throw across a warehouse and have nothing happen to it.

      That’s hilarious. I’m starting to get more curious about the Z Fold… maybe when it hits the resale market.

        Grab one once it goes on sale. The Z Fold 7 is by far the best phone I’ve ever owned.

        Even when folded it’s still thinner than an iPhone 16, so it’s just like using a regular phone most of the time. Then when you need the extra screen real-estate, just open and it’s there for you. At first glance you can’t even tell that it’s a foldable when closed. Most people have no idea until I open it (unless they’re tech enthusiasts, of course.)

        And they somehow managed to pull this off while still improving battery life. I’ve never had a phone where I end the day at 50% charge until now (at least not since the flip phone days). It’s amazing.
