This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

They seem to be all about wireless though. Things like the charging port, sim tray (do the latest still use physical sims at all?), and any remaining mechanical buttons seem like obvious candidates.

They still would be - but 5G only, with no use for local networks. "No more wifi passwords," they'd say. Like it's a convenience.

Your “no more wifi passwords” example just felt too real. I still don’t see WiFi going away on their devices, but I could totally imagine a new proprietary network layer that lets you jump between random access points securely with no password, as long as you’re signed into iCloud.
