I agree. Less skinny. More battery.

I agree. Flat is ok, so lets have both please. Thinner and lighter isnt great, re strength and re battery.
The square edges of the iPhones are iconic, goneburger.

He is a but like SJ, one guy, one set of tastes, one set of ideas. Great if his tastes match the populace, but if they don't then they are wrong. Just as Steves 3.5 phone was right, later it became wrong, never got changed. But whoever is running iOS/Yosemite, they are on the right pathway.

If you would like it to be better, it will be thickier and heavier, but Jonny ive has a fetish with lighter and thinner, which is a pity

Yeah, I wonder about Ives. The other day, I was fiddling with my wife's first-gen iPad, which, of course, couldn't take the iOS 7 upgrade. Those skeumorph graphics still look nicer, to me, than Ives' dead-flat ones. I don't mind the flat look, but I don't think the baby had to go out with the bath water. Maybe Ives is an all-or-nothing guy. I can appreciate that, in its place, but maybe to him it's never not the place.
