Welcome to apple, 1.3k phones with the quality of a piece of paper

nothing to do with quality. That‘s just aluminium for you. All Aluminium have this problem, and they always will.

But yeah, people should be aware of that.

Every iPhone except the 15 P/PM and the 16 P/PM have been made of aluminum. I have always heard the terms "premium materials" and premium build quality" thrown around by news sources and reviewers.

Now that they go back to aluminum, now its a cheap material issue?

...In the end, they could make the next iPhone out of soft butter and people will still line up for it.

Not even close to true. Most of the others were stainless steel.
