Easy solution:
they probably know people don’t actually turns off their devices lol
Sheesh. How often do you need to reach for the power button? It’s got solid state storage. Just flip it on its damn side and stop whinging.
Apple’s new power bottom.
Even if it’s not a big deal, it’s a form over function decision and I was hoping Apple is over that by now.
It’s not, we solved this issue before the invention of the computer, just use a capacitive touch sensor, you can literally make any power button completely invisible, this is malicious design.
I’ve seen a decent number of people mention that current placement is too easy to accidentally hit while plugging something in. I’ve also experienced that.
However, if you think Apple is ever going to get over form over function, you’re very mistaken. It’s literally their entire identity.
