Design the next iPhone game: Ive created a true monstrosity of a phone

Have you ever wanted an iPhone with a joystick? Social media users have discovered "Design the next iPhone," a web game by Neal Agarwal.

Design the next iPhone game: Ive created a true monstrosity of a phone

Social media users on Threads stumbled upon a peculiar web game called "Design the next iPhone." Created by Neal Agarwal for his website Neal.fun, the free-to-play game allows players to create their ideal iPhone by selecting various components such as ports, cameras, and buttons. The game even offers quirky add-ons like googly eyes and steering wheels.

According to Agarwal, the game is a playful way to celebrate Apple event week, with similar mini-games available on his site, such as "Draw logos from memory" and "Asteroid launcher."

Creating the perfect iPhone proved to be a challenge for Agarwal, who admitted that his design skills are not his strongest suit. Despite his best efforts, his creation turned out to be a "true monstrosity of a phone," complete with an antenna and two little feet - an unconventional design that Apple is unlikely to adopt. One notable feature the player wished for was a proper flip phone, a rumored future development for Apple.

The game's limitations were apparent, as players could not create a flip phone, a feature Apple is reportedly working on for the future.
