> I don’t think we will be able to say the same thing about an iPhone 12 or 13

The wildcard here is local LLM use cases and any new hardware that increases their speed by orders of magnitude.

That’s not really a need for smartphone users. I can access an LLM on a website for free right now.

I also don’t see any indication that there will be impactful local LLM silicon at the smartphone scale anytime soon.

You can yes, but the rumor is that Apple is focusing on adding them directly to your device, and if they integrate it deeply in the OS, then it will require the chips to run it. I’m sure you will be able to run old devices but without the latest Siri for example.

Can I get a user replaceable battery instead?

I just want a glorified iPod from my old phone that won't get pwned at the airport.
