apple are not going to make such a big jump to a 300mm + lens in only 1 generations time, given that the iPhone 15 Pro Max isn't even confirmed to have a periscope camera yet, it would go against everything that apple think, you would realistically expect apple to to keep a 6X Telephoto lens for at least 3 generations of iPhone.
Heck the iPhone 7 plus was the first iphone with a 2X camera and that was WAY back in 2016.
The company have never been about bringing new tech to market regardless of what other companies are doing, that is not how they make money, they roll out stuff slow and drip feed people small upgrades at a time.

There are still non apple products that simply do not connect to apple devices.
I struggled for YEARS with old Macbooks and iPhones/iPads with this issue, Nowadays it is not such a big problem as apple opened up the platform to be more user friendly, go back 10 years and ANYTHING made by Samsung especially you could simply forget it, even now my TV will not connect with my latest Macbook pro 14 even with all the software installed on both sides, and I am no noob when it comes to tech.
The restricted access was under the guise of safety and security.

For the NFC is true. But, for the Bluetooth part. That one is bigger lie. I can connect any devices to my iPhone without any software needed. Whatever devices I'm connecting to my Android phone using Bluetooth, I'm able to do the same to my iPhone. Stop spreading lies if you never owned an iPhone 🤦🏻♂️

Asuran, 19 Jul 2023Bigger screen is the sole reason why people get the pro max... moreAs I said, the main reason are the features, not the screen size alone, hence why the Plus models sell way less compared to the other models in their lineup
You can also look up polls and other people discussing their ideal screen size, which falls between 6.1-6.5 inches
The reasons that you mentioned are totally fair, but you also have to keep in mind the portability, and a 7+ inch screen just wouldn't be reasonable

Yes, that periscope with prisms in iPhone will introduce lots of optical aberrations which have then to be corrected by the neural 64-core processors using Artificial Intelligence.

What I (and perhaps, people) want is iPhone with dual sim cards so I will not buy it from China/HK/Macau; and not-restricted bluetooth and NFC.
I think those are not difficult for Apple to make my dream coming true.

We can assume Xiaomi will copy this and the 14 ultra from next year get 5 maybe 20 years of advancement in ths technology compared to what Apple brings on in 2024.
Same expected from Huawei and maye Oppo and Vivo.
As usually when Iphone gets something interested android wolrd have it long time ago.
Just like always on display which got Nokia N8 at december 2008 Apple got same tech with 14 models 15 years after.

They are just creating the need to mass produce a mobile camera lens that no one needs, so to bring manufacturing costs down.
So that In a 2nd chapter drones and automated robots all cheaply produced and fitted with these technologies can control/ surveil the masses.
What sort of cameras do you think "law"-enforcement robots will use?

No one likes small screens. Its bad for watching movies and reading books. Even Apple discontinued the mini versions because of poor sales.

People buy the Max/Ultra phones mainly for their additional features and not for their screen size, which is why phones around 6.1-6.5 inch sell the best

But if that won't just be due to reduction of bezels and will actually come with increased overall size to accommodate more hardware, then I guess they could have started that with the 15 Pro for it to still be as similar as possible to the 15 Pro Max.

Anyway, with more disparities between them this year and going forward, the changing of Pro Max naming into something entirely different is making more sense.
