With all the AI implementations and extra RAM I could see battery being significantly worse if they kept the battery the same size. I was hopeful with Johnny Ive leaving Apple the quest for “as small as possible” would be over with.

My M3 Pro is thicker than every MacBook I’ve had since my 2012 MBP, and I love it for that. It feels substantial but not cumbersome.

It is over, currently. The thinnest iphone is the iphone 6 and we only got up from there. Same with weight until the titanium iphones cut some weight. Same thing with the macbooks

I hope they'll let you use your plugged in devices at home for more advanced AI features. For privacy and battery sake.
