New iPhone 12 rumor points to thinner devices, taller form factor

[iMore.com]

A pretty jumbled rumor from Mac Otakara claims that the next iPhone could be ever-so-slightly thinner than its predecessor.

Full story from the iMore Blog...

Going thinner again? I’ve yet to find anyone who isn’t okay with the slightly thicker iPhone 11 models because it means better battery life.
Hopefully this is simply a rumor and nothing more.

I don't understand the obsession with thinner. What's the point to it? They're too thin as is, IMO. Agree with Rob here.

I don’t understand this at all, but who am I If any of these rumors ring true, I might be sticking with my X & XS. The sizes that have been rumored just don’t appeal to me. I’ll definitely need to see the smallest option before deciding, but I’m pretty content with the size of the X/XS.

I agree with everyone here as well. The iPhone is thin enough as it is! Pretty soon we’ll be holding a phone as thin as paper no thanks !

IMO I really loved the form of the 4S and 5S. If Apple went back to that style I’d definitely ditch my 11 for it

I definitely don’t want a device thinner than my XS Max. I don’t mind a thick iPhone at all. I hope Apple don’t use the design of the 4-5 series for the next release in September.

Glad I got the Pro Max instead of waiting for the i12 line-up

Thinner is meaningful unless you’re making it size of card to slide in wallet... LOL

It’s not that my Xr is necessarily too thick on its own but the fact that it’s made out of so much glass. That means I need a rather substantial protective case on it which makes it too thick in my book.
I enjoy the better battery life. Come up with a compromise.

It seems that the time is not very far when we have phones just like cards

Well, it turns out the XS Max is only marginally thinner than the SE. So with the 11 being thicker than the XS, I would assume the thinner size would be back to the XS thinness. Either way, thicker with flatter sides, something to actually hold on to, that’s what it needs to be.
