This Week in Apple: Everyone’s a critic

Foldable iPhone rumors heat up as Apple delivers a new plan and new betas.

More screen time

Foldable mania has hit the Apple world as rumors run rampant of Apple shipping its most expensive iPhone ever next year.

And, yes, they think you’re gonna love it.

First off, Mark Gurman says Apple is prioritizing software features in iOS 27 that take advantage of the foldable form factor. I’m no software developer, but this seems a better tack than implementing features that hinder the foldable form factor.

Meanwhile, according to Gurman, Apple has focused its hardware efforts on improving the hinge mechanism and reducing the display crease. Maybe Apple could implement software features that distract users from the crease, like maybe filling the outside edges of the screen with dancing monkeys that draw your eye away from it.

Just spitballing based on my web experience from the early 2000s.

Again, not a software developer.…
