I own an Iphone Air Black Titanium 1tb with FineWoven wallet, AirPods Pro 3, MacBook Pro M5, iPad Pro M5 and many accessories including Thunderbolt 5 2 meter long cable so that's not souless

Designed by soulless people for a soulless audience.

Why two phones?

Normalfags. They ruin everything for everyone. Whenever nerds start a hobby it has soul until women and normies invade said hobby and demand to be included.

>Why is consumer technology so soulless now?
Tech CEOs still think Millenials are their main userbase, and millenials for some reason love that soulless minimalist slop style.

If it were me all tech would have soul. I'd bring the ipod back too, with bluetooth capability and a far better internal dac.

>>526167781
It's exactly the same as 2016 sans wires. All tech has been utterly souless since like 2007ish.

It's kiked beyond comprehension. I feel bad for writing it, but apple is at this point a tiny bit better than microshit.
Apple tinkers with glass- like theme that has some resemblance of Frutiger Aero, while microshit went full retard with flat single color rectangles, a regress to 70s and first GUIs in existence, if not worse.

Owning an iPhone is basically a status symbol. It's like the Mercedes of phones.

>consumer electronics
>status symbol
For this purpose you buy a mechanical watch or clothes with big ass logo of an expensive brand.
At the same time, does apple manufacture anything actually useful like let's say, ergonomic smartphones with displays below 5"? No? Oh right, it's not about making actually useful things anymore.
The company is in a death spiral, you could see it with your own eyes when Cook took over. A clinical retard whose peak of life ambitions was to publicly announce he's a faggot.

Just a great little pocket PC/Phone.

There's iPhone mini

Even if that's true, it doesn't matter because they have no competition. What other phone feels like luxury? None.

Pathetic battery capacity, Size of a big smartphone from 2010s, meaning it's too big to fit in a pocket.
And they discontinued the production years ago.
KYS applenigger. I bet you believe Intel CPUs obtain unique magical properties after they get mounted inside a case with apple logo.

Some aspiring electrical engineer should just make a Retro Devices LLC company and start pumping this kind of shit out.

To be honest, refrigerators and dishwashers from different companies have more unique look than smartphones right now.
>>
>>526169674
Nah I don't own an apple. It's just the truth

>Pathetic battery capacity
Exactly. You can't expect long battery life with the performance and features of a modern phone. To get more juice, you need bigger batteries, which means bigger phones. Apple isn't going to nerf their performance just to please a niche market and risk losing their premium status.
