What's the Ideal Width of the iPhone? We Asked HackerNoon Readers to Find Out
Apple has long chased the holy grail of thinness. “Thinner than any phones we’ve ever made—that took an incredible amount of engineering,” proclaimed Apple’s Phil Schiller while unveiling the 6.9mm-thick iPhone 6 back in 2014. Fast forward to today: Apple is rumored to repeat that feat with an upcoming iPhone 17 “Air” that’s about 2mm slimmer than current models. But with smartphones already wafer-thin, one has to ask – is shaving off a couple more millimeters truly magical, or have we reached the point of diminishing returns? Recent polling and industry voices suggest that ultra-slim phones might not be the straightforward upgrade Apple’s marketing would have us believe.

Innovation in smartphone design should prioritize user comfort.
A well-designed device feels natural in the hand.
