Why? Phones have been thin enough for a long time that you have to put them in a case just to get a good grip.

This thin obsession really needs to stop.

Enough with the goddamn thinness soon that shit is gonna snap if you breathe on it

I want more functionality and better battery life. And guess what, thinner doesn’t help with any of those.

I feel like we're just going backwards, we stopped caring about tech getting thin enough to act like a blade like a decade ago.

Why are we doing this again?

So gimmicky

I'm not going to buy any of those, and I don't use a smartwatch at all, but I'd rather have a thicker laptop and phone with the extra space expended on a larger battery.

any phone thinner than an iPod Touch 4 is unnecessarily thin imo

I'm looking for tha THICCness

Can this trend of thin tech just end already? It’s pointless.

Wh🥱 cares

You don't say? Next they'll say the plans also include making it faster and attempts to improve battery life.

Must be a slow news day.

I don't want thinner. I want more functionality. Don't expect me to pay 2 grand for a laptop with no external USB or HDMI ports, for which privileges I can pay an additional $100 or so. I'm frustrated enough by the lack of Ethernet jacks on my Lenovo. The last time I had a Mac (work shipped me one), I was even more frustrated by how bad the built in trackpad and keyboard were and the fact that using an external device to replace them came at a premium price.

I remember when all of my friends would laugh at the iPod Nano, when it released as being super thin, due to all the people accidentally sitting on them or other easy ways in which they broke.

I would prefer it if manufacturers made phones with smaller screens, so I can actually use it with one hand without some janky workaround (like right/left handed modes on Google Keyboard).

This means less battery life (or security margins) and or less powerful cpu.

another crappy apple invented useless fashion, that will be spread everywhere, as everyone wants to follow the trends. See: curved display, micro SIM then nano SIM, no headphone jack, etc.

they will never be as thin as Wiko Highway Pure

So next time you drop it it's not only the display breaking?
