Opinion: iPhone 7 should be imaginative, not status quo, or risk spectacular fail

<div class="feat-image">(https://9to5mac.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/peak-iphone.png?w=1600&h=1000#038;h=500)</div>Walt Mossberg, “Friend of Apple” and Personal Technology Columnist at The Verge, is out today with his take on the<a href="http://9to5mac.com/2016/03/21/apple-unveils-4-inch-iphone-se/" target="_blank"> iPhone SE[/url] announcement from Monday. His not terribly hot take?</p>

<p>Ouch. That’s not a great sign. Neither is the fact that Apple’s Chief Design Officer Jony Ive didn’t make the 2-building over commute to see the show.</p>
<p>We, however, thought the iPhone SE $399 price was a big deal (http://9to5mac.com/2016/03/22/iphone-se-opinion/). Its incredible power in small size was unprecedented (http://9to5mac.com/2016/03/23/iphone-se-diary-before/) and frankly <a href="http://9to5mac.com/2016/03/22/comparison-iphone-se-6-6s-plus-specs/" target="_blank">lustworthy[/url].</p>
<p>But Mossberg glossed over any meaningful discussion of the SE and instead ultimatum-ed a wishlist for the iPhone 7… <a href="http://9to5mac.com/2016/03/23/mossberg-iphone-7-android-apple-doom/#more-424642" class="more-link">more…[/url]</p>
