Ok now make it twice as thick and half as tall.

Only twice? How about 4 times as thick?

If I could have a phone that lasts 4-6 days without a recharge, take my money!

I just measured my iPhone 16 Pro’s thickness with a caliper, too lazy to read the actual specifications, got around 8-8.5mm. If we multiplied 5.6mm (iPhone 17 Air) by 4 that would be 22.4mm which is nearly 7/8” thick.

That would be an absolutely brick to lug around personally, I can barely fit my current phone with its otter box in my pocket as is and comfortably sit down.

I meant four times as thick as that new ultra thin design, but I'd even that that one you just said.

If that means I only need to charge once a week, I'm in

Yes, to which I responded in my original comment with:

You’re talking almost a full inch.

Ah okay

I'd still take it
