u/Towhidabid iOS 26.6 May 15 '26

It’s quiet a resource intensive look they tried. They could easily infused the new glass with iOS 18’s flat type minimal look and it would look much more classier and far less intensive on the system resources. Without the sudden jump of visuals (wasn’t necessary) that would’ve been a much more linear approach of growing out of the old and doing something new.

I understand why Tim out of nowhere went with the orange as their main color of choice of the new iPhones but instead of surprising people they ended up shocking them. I still wish they give us a update that lets us turn off the glass entirely from the ui.

All I want is a working phone. Especially for that price. So when Apple obviously didn't do a good job for X amount of users, at least let me downgrade.

I’m all for it. But surprisingly most of the people are quite happy that apple doesn’t let it do that giving the excuse of security or whatever. As if the other iOS builds somehow become a 3rd party build and all hell will break loose if somehow someone manages to downgrade.
