This but with LTPO 120Hz and hopefully even lighter weight (Galaxy S25 pulled ahead at 162g). Add A19 and that’s it, that should be iPhone 17.

Iphone 16 didn't wow me. After 2 days packed and returned. I just found it rather boring.

i dont like iphones but one thing i do like is how apple is keeping the small phone alive (find me one under 6 inch brand new phone and then come back to me if you think this isnt small nowadays)
