"Apple has developed a new finish for the titanium frame of the
iPhone 16 Pro models, with the brushed look of the iPhone 15 Pro
replaced by a more polished material."

Please explain to me why this is a big deal and how does it lead to a

It doesn't ... but Samsung and co. will still be copying it in four
months time, after jeering Apple for doing it. :-p

Regardless of whether Samsung copies them, Apple has trillions of
dollars to use for innovation and creating new useful products. When
it comes to the iPhone the only things they've shown lately are
different colors or different skeletal materials. Oh, and the dynamic
window which turned out to be a dud. Occasionally they come out with
an updated camera.
What golfer boy is telling everyone is he only cares about looks,
and wants to pretend all of the other innovations in iPhones don't
exist. Things like LiDAR, improved camera systems, and other things are
supposedly unimportant and to be ignored because: troll.
Why bother coming out with a new model every year if there's nothing
new to sell?
Golfer boy here thinks people who buy a new iPhone in any given year
don't want incremental improvements and would be just as happy buying
last year's model. Golfer boy wants everyone to know he doesn't
understand the market at all.
The only thing I can think of is they know the Apple sheep will stand
in line for days waiting to be the first to buy a yellow iPhone.
What Golfer boy is saying here is that he and Arlen are *literally*
*obsessed* with the fact that Apple "dared" to release a yellow-colored
iPhone variant over a year ago. They got so triggered about it they
trolled here for weeks pretty much non-stop about it, and any chance
they have of mentioning it they do - even over a year later. Imagine
being *that* obsessed over such a trivial thing! Pathetic.
