The term "premium-feeling" does a lot of heavy lifting in that paragraph, one might almost say that it's a bit subjective.

    I think it would be pretty premium if I could have a spare battery on the charger for a quick swap rather than relying on a cable to charge my phone.

    What they really mean is "very slightly thinner than the previous generation or current rival because we think that's a super marketable thing still even though we've reached the practical limit where it no longer makes sense to go thinner."
