Safe to assume those are your kids?

I already imagined a guy in cargo shorts.

Why make a worse product for a problem that can be solved by carrying your phone a different way, or not having your phone on you for a moment?

"You're holding it wrong"

This phone is not significantly lighter than previous gen. It's 146g vs 170g for the iPhone 16.

That’s ~15% improvement

That’s not nothing

Parent is wrong, the Air is 165g, not 146g. The previously lightest iPhone in production is the 16e at 167g, so almost no difference in weight between those two.

The iPhone 12 Mini weighed 135g. Even more improvement :)

The correct solution already existed but it wasn't expensive luxury fashion bullshit enough so it didn't sell and they'll pretend it never existed.

Plastic would do more than less battery and more glass/ceramic though, right?

As other comments have said, this isn't going to change that experience whatsoever

But 165gr is not really that light.

And 6.5” is not small.
