I wonder what the difference might have been had they used an iPhone 7 and set

Hi Kevin,
I wonder about the light bar as well. I expect Apple will have a work around

Imagine no power port, I hope for the extra ram as well. More space from fewer
ports hopefully will be put to good use.
Thought some might find this interesting, especially since Apple wins.

The adapter definitely gets warm and the phone for me stays warm up until about
