I know it's been a running joke for years now, but jesus christ the iPhones still start at 128GB and the regular 16 is still 60Hz and USB 2.0.

The 60hz screen is ridiculous. They need to make the phone WAY cheaper and acknowledge it's mid-tier. But Apple want it both ways - a premium brand charging premium prices and then shovelling bottom-end specs to funnel you to the even-more-expensive models.

I hate the stupidly low base storage, but personally am not impacted due to my usage patterns and having cheap cloud storage so I'm not as passionate with my disdain!
