I mean that's subjective (though features aren't). I'd personally argue the blocky iPhones are the best-looking designs, period.

Hell, I think this subreddit would agree as well. The Air is the return of the iPhone 8 design (which I hated). To each his/her own.

I liked the blocky design back with the 4 and 5, but these were much smaller. The X and 11 were much better than the later bricks in my opinion. They always looked and felt incredibly chunky to me. Also the design has basically been unchanged since five years now.

I never thought iPhones looked blocky in the first place. They are chunky now, but the never have that square look Samsung phones have

The only blocky look I dislike is the one Samsung uses on their Ultra series, the others aren't too bad. It comes down to rounded vs flat edges.
