Let’s get the big question out of the way. Instead, I asked Polygon guides editor Dave Tach to help me on my silly journey to discover what type of phone Spider-Man uses, and whether or not his suit could actually work with a capacitive touchscreen. This leads to important questions, like: Which phone is Peter Parker using? Is he an Apple fanboy, or is he sticking to an Android device? Can he even use an iPhone X with his mask, or will Face ID fail? I reached out to both Apple, Sony and Insomniac representatives for comment, but to no avail. It seems unlikely that Spider-Man is swinging around New York City with a battery pack and cable. It also means relying on a phone that’s waterproof (obviously), and a phone with a good battery life. Spider-Man’s phone is important to him, and that means designing a suit that allows him to carry his phone and use it on the go. Games, television and bad horror movies all use these tiny devices we carry in our pockets to spin different narratives to accentuate a story by incorporating technology that many of us use every single day. I have an obsession with phones in entertainment. He’s also an avid Twitter user, like many of us unfortunately are in 2018. There are multiple points in the game where Parker is texting friends like Mary Jane (albeit from the top of a skyscraper) or scrolling through his phone on the subway. Insomniac Games’ Spider-Man stars a modern-day web-slinging superhero, which means Peter Parker is addicted to his smartphone. We both live in New York City, both deal with New York City problems like relying on the MTA to get us around and both of us can’t stop playing with our phones. Spider-Man and I have a few things in common.
