"The design drew inspiration from the concept of “a piece of cloth”
You must log in or register to comment.
okay i hate apple but im actually upset about issey miyaki(also rip). like what the fuck happened?!
where’s the interesting designs and the shit ton of zippers :/
Like many, I thought for a microsecond that they actually brought out a new phone model that will fit in a pocket.
But no, of course they didn’t. Because why the fuck would anyone want that.
So, a knee-high sock with a slit on the side. For $230 US.
does it bother apple that it is compatible with all other phone brands?
Probably not. Can you imagine someone with a non-Apple phone not being willing to buy an iPhone, but being willing to buy one of those?
I cannot imagine anyone getting that phone cumsock to parade around
Many years back, I kept my ipod classic in an old sock to protect it while it banged around inside my bag. My buddy made fun of me for it, little did he know that my sense of fashion was just far ahead of its time.
Tangentially related. I used to go out on boats a bunch meant years ago. Lost a moto Razer when they were still kinda new. Was bummed, but learned. So I bought what at the time was a kinda nice Nokia(one of the first bar phones with blue tooth) and put it in a condom and tied it off. Could still use it fairly normally, and there was enough air to keep it floating the few times it fell in. Caught on with some of my cohorts, others got a very expensive lesson in laughing at me.

Honest question, how do you Apple fans keep supporting this company?
Well, not a fan, exactly, but I am forced to be fully engulfed in the apple ecosystem.
I don’t hate them more than Dell, Asus, Sony, or Microsoft. Not everything they make is a ripoff.
- the $10 A/D converter in the headphone adapters is a steal
- the mac mini with base config is a good deal
- the macbook air is worth the money and best in class
- ipad — no worthy competition for most users
- M-series chips and their energy consumption
- savvy users avoid all the upsell ripoffs like storage upgrades and displays and sock slings
iPads cant even send SMS or make calls. The most gimped of tablets.
The rest of your list seems reasonable
apple is cool.
lemmy people aren’t cool. they are practical.
practical people are the antithesis of cool people. cool people don’t care about value or function.
hence why they pay $1000s for wear it once clothing.
MacBooks are pretty practical. ARM laptops like MacBooks have genuinely ridiculously good battery life; I was genuinely shocked the first time I used one.
Yes, ARM windows exists, but it’s clunky and has little support because unlike MacBooks, not all Windows laptops run ARM, so developers have little incentive to make ARM Windows versions their apps.

Yeah agreed, have one at work. I just really dislike their software.
battery life and simplicity thats why. i used it while in COllege, and i can see why people own even the older ones.
Oh God I feel dumber having read this. How is this not the onion?! A 3D knitted construction? Really?
I love this. This is perfect for Apple people.
It’s really not.
Apple seems to disagree with you.
It’ll just make idiots even more identifiable

Looks at URL.
Born from the idea of creating an additional pocket, its understated design fully encloses iPhone, expanding to fit more of a user’s everyday items.
“The design of iPhone Pocket speaks to the bond between iPhone and its user, while keeping in mind that an Apple product is designed to be universal in aesthetic and versatile in use,” shared Yoshiyuki Miyamae, design director of MIYAKE DESIGN STUDIO
Looks at URL.
When stretched, the open textile subtly reveals its contents and allows users to peek at their iPhone display…
This can’t be real. Checks URL again.
Phone Pocket features a singular 3D-knitted construction that is the result of research and development carried out at ISSEY MIYAKE. The design drew inspiration from the concept of “a piece of cloth” and…
iPhone Pocket in the short strap design retails at $149.95 (U.S.), and the long strap design at $229.95 (U.S.).
…What the fuck? This has to be hack or something. There’s no way a human being wrote that article, and didn’t know what they were doing.
This was my EXACT experience. How was this not satire?
I did the same, but also double checked the date to make sure this wasn’t some weird April fools that got missed
I can’t stop laughing at this comment. I think that’s what we all did!
“This can’t be real. Checks URL again.”
Dude! I was doing the same thing. I kept thinking, “Is this some new form of prank that hides the url somehow?”
it’s so stupid I’m still not convinced it’s real.
It looks like the bathing suit that Borat wore to the beach.
Man, I got excited for a moment they brought back the SE line, but at an even cheaper price.
I knew it couldn’t be true, not with Apple, but, it is what I first thought.
We’ve come full circle.
Also, I wonder if this is some kind of scheme to park the “iPhone Pocket” name for a bit in case they want to make a phone called that in 10 years.
