But that’s exactly how they market the iPhone e series: “value packed” “a good buy”.

And I would argue the 17e is less compromised in relation to the 17 than the Neo is in relation to the Air.

@heliographe_studio those two feature English text which, for me, is a bigger error than the newer symbolic versions.

I wish the standard was to list sensor sizes with metric dimensions. Or at least a metric diagonal. As a European I hate the fractional inches.

In the case of the iPhone, that would make the 4× sensor something like 10 by 7.5mm and the 8× would be a equivalent to a quarter of that area, 5 by 3.75mm.

@andynormancx @sharding @atpfm Where does that note the physical equivalent sensor size? It’s alluded to with the pixel pitch, but not clearly stated.
@zhenyi Yeah that's an odd bug. Redirect "site:"s to Google directly?

@zhenyi This might be a bit of a Rube Goldberg solution, but could you use Mullvad Leta as a text accessible Google mirror?

@sharding @atpfm I’m a bit torn on this. If a device has a separate 12mp 2× and 48mp 1× camera, then even if the sensors were technically identical (same pixel pitch), it definitely has two cameras.

I think where they are misleading is they do not emphasise the *sensor size* differences for each “lens”.

@vmachiel @marcoarment my threshold for finding the Air impressive was “does this achieve greater reductions in size and weight than going caseless would”. People are going to buy the Air and stick it in a case when they’d be better off buying a 17 and getting AppleCare+.
@marcoarment 5 years has taken us from the regular 12 weighing 162g to the *Air* weighing 165g.
