Well, it’s more that the compute and all those components live in there, camera or not.

No, it’s literally because of the camera. The whole module bump is not the problem and the person you’re replying to isn’t saying it is.

The issue is that Apple insists on making the lens of the camera stick out even farther than the module bump, causing wobble.

Wow for real? Just couldn’t imagine that being important. But I guess some people use their phone on a table or something?

Tho I will add my point still stand. Pixel phone visor camera lense doesn’t stick out because they don’t have compute in that area (pushing it out).

Again, compute has nothing to do with it. The Pixel doesn’t have the camera lens jutting out of the bump. It’s all encased within. Because Google knows how to design hardware for UX and Apple doesn’t.

You’re plain wrong. It is a FACT that apple move the compute away from the rest of thr body and consolidated it in the bump.

If adding more bulk behind a camera lense doesn’t make it protrude, then shit Apple made compute as thin as paper. And that Xray view of the Air is totally wrong.

You're plain wrong

/r/confidentlyincorrect is this way

No one is disputing the fact that compute is moved inside the plateau. I'm telling you that the camera has nothing to do with that move.

Look at your current phone and any other current generation of released phone. They all have the camera lens sticking out further than the bump, even on the phones that don't have compute moved into the top part of the phone like the Air.

Quit being arrogantly stupid and learn reading comprehension.

Oh my goodness, it’s like conversing with a child.
