I do not understand why Jonny Ives, with his enormous take home pay, is still reigning over Apple's design effort.
His obsession of never ending pursuit of thinness hit the wall of practicality, and this ugly baby is the proof.
The UI makeover (not feature addition or hardware spec improvement etc ) since iOS 8 when Ives stuck his nose into it has been horrible.
It appears that he is now in somewhat of a transitional position, but perhaps ready to be courteously ousted?
Anyway, this horrible battery case is a proof that Apple recognized that they went too far of this thinness obsession.
