Apple done?

[wilber21]

Apple have lost their way a little, big price hikes in 2018 and the products aren't as good as people hoped / expected. You can't just live on a brand name if you're selling poorer quality goods.
They'll bounce back but need to get things back on track.

Sounds like what happened to Ferrari

i try to switch to android but theres just so many things that apple does right with iOS. The keyboard feels so much better and more precise.. I dont know what it is, but I just cannot type correctly on android.

Definitely not done. It's just getting some long overdue slaps to return to mother Earth from the clouds. You can fool people only for so long into paying top price for your once superior products, which they clearly aren't anymore. They need to put their shit together, care less about their margin and concentrate on innovation again, which was the strongest quality of the company and kept them always one step ahead.

No matter how much RAM android phone has 10, 20, 30 the OS is laggy!

Apple does it right optimizing it right even with 3 gm of RAM.

That's how refined the iOS is!

its definitely because their visionary (steve jobs) is gone. tim cook is a always been a finance guy, he led apple to new heights in terms of sales.. but not quality

Pretty adequate thought. I hope that hey also think in this way. I don't like apple only for their "bitten apple" brand name. I like them for quality. iOS is a great platform. Right now I'm using iPhone SE (2016) and it runs better and faster that a lot of 2018 android devices. Hope that Apple going to change their policy in right way

Seems like this morning I saw a tweet that Apple going to fire Tim, lol

As long as people what to be cool apple will exist. So we've just got to get used to them until the sun implodes and the earth is swallowed up by the red dwarf our dying sun will create.

No offense to any apple fan boys here ;-)

It’s the nature of tech, and especially mobile tech - you have to have constant innovation to stay at the top.

They are slacking now, but I’m sure they’ll bounce back up.

 

[SiteTide]

I love the iPhone, but their other products I’m not a huge fan off. Who knows if they will be around in 20 years, we will see.

I read news that it's one Chinese guy who sold his kidney to buy iphone..

Yes I read that story too. I read the only kidney he has left is now faulty and so he is sick. He did that some years ago for iPhone 4 I think. The lesson here is that change is constant and there will always be a new thing driving people crazy and you should not kill yourself if you cant get the current one. Back in the day Blackberry was a status symbol but today it is gone where I reside

One day I understood that spending so much money for a phone or a computer is the silliest thing in the world.
Especially when some problems appeared (it was long ago to tell the truth). That's why I prefer something else, especially as the market is full of great gadgets these days.
Apple is very overrated thing.

 

[Heinzketchups]

i think people's mentality is shifting though. Years ago smartphones were constantly making insane progress. Now theres almost nothing differentiating between them. I think i'm in the majority now where my phone is just good enough that I dont see myself upgrading for atleast a few years. Same with laptops and tablets. I use to upgrade everything every year, but now my laptop / ipad / phone is so good already that I will probably use them until they die / get stolen UNLESS theres a huge radical thing that comes out that instantly makes it obsolete. adding another gb of ram isn't gonna cut it

 

[whynotmakeit]

Much of the media has been predicting the downfall of Apple each and every year since 1987....just sayin

 

[bazhina.fler]

The paradox is that even if the majority of users will see all sorts of bugs, they will still go and buy a new iPhone for obvious reasons. On this Apple and hold on.

I love my 27" iMac. Love the beautiful UI.

Windows 10 on the other hand is fucking garbage. Try fully disabling Windows Defender. Fucking nightmare.

But for phone I have samsung, have not tried iphone yet.

I don't agree with you on the fact that windows 10 is garbage, but I do agree that imac is very nice.

I use windows 10 everyday, and it's fucking awesome and reliable. Not sure why it gets so much hate.

 

[jsalima]

I have Windows and Apple Products and I have to say that I prefer my Mac server
to my Windows 10 box. Everything just flows faster and smoother on there.
However I agree I would not call Windows "garbage" lol.

Cheers =)

Seems like their devices soon lost their quality

What quality. The devices that are designed to fall to pieces if they are dropped. Scammy glass back covers so there is more chance of you breaking it and needing a replacement.

Apple also makes sure that their hardware is fukin hard to disassemble. Most of the time, you will end up buying a new device. That's how apple eco system works
