    I like how at the time we hadn’t even considered the entire slab would be a screen, like the memes still have the home button at the bottom. I get that it’s a meme but still.

    We also probably assumed the headphone jack would never go away either so.

    Cute, they thought that it would only grow in one dimension while in reality it did in two.
