I thought that was the iPhone X? Guess they couldn't wait for the Quarter Century Edition.

Here's a non paywalled version: archive.ph

The wow factor with the iPhone was being always connected. The rest was nothing but good enough for the torpid and enervated. This will surely be Cook's (and likely Gorman's) last hurrah.

Sounds like face plates at the high-end and performance downgrades (to hold margins?) at the lower end. All that's new is adopting that which others are delivering today (ie foldables). Premium pricing requires innovation even if it has to come from elsewhere.

What Is In-Cell Touchscreen Technology? Feb 4, 2021

This is Apple's pick for their foldable touch screens. I assume it means capacitance wires are embedded within the foldable screen instead of being a separate affixed layer.

Newer tech here appears to have lost it's lustre for Apple.
