Amazing, I think I will now purchase an Apple iPhone 7 device due to this declaration by none other than the CEO of Apple. I was content with my Nexus 6P, but that has all changed now. Thanks slashdot for letting me know about this statement in particular, time for the trip behind the woodshed 6P.
Please. My social media feeds have been filled with out of focus, blurry photos for just as long as social media has been around.
I wonder if that's where they keep the fire, like Samsung's adapter.
