The gap between desktop and mobile looks to be closing even further. A new leak suggests that the iPhone 17 series will feature display output and a desktop mode, similar to what is already available on Android, while iPadOS 19 will further expand on Stage Manager with a macOS-like feature set. https://www.notebookcheck.net/iPhone-17-may-copy-Android-16-desktop-mode-in-iOS-19-update-as-iPadOS-gets-Stage-Manager-2-0-upgrade.1004452.0.html
Apple always behind.
No desktop mode right as we speak
Never offered a SD Card reader on a iPhone
Never offered a removable battery since day one
No foldable option ( Apple fold's have been available since 2019 )
the list goes on and on .
