Maybe this will take off like hotcakes but I'm in the "I don't think this does anything for me / anyone" camp. Granted I loved the 13 mini and that didn't sell so who knows.
I lament my 13 mini coming to the end of its lifespan. Good design.
I wonder if this one bends in your pocket[1]. I'd much rather have the 'iphone thicc' which can be 10mm thick if it fits easily in my hand :-) [1] https://qz.com/1288272/bendgate-was-real-apple-knew-the-ipho...

Apple: here's the thinnest phone ever
Just do not understand the market for this one. The current size of phones is a solved problem. Nobody is asking for these things to be thinner. Most people use cases and are happy to add some thickness for battery life. Besides, the camera "plateau" makes it all futile.
I would love a lighter phone. If I chase after kids at the park, the thing is banging around like a lead weight in my pockets.

iphones are also a fashion accessory. lots of people will buy it for its distinctiveness
When they do a folding phone next, the thinness will have functional value.
Initial reactions are negative, so I predict this will be a hit.
