Hasn't everyone said this same thing for years now?


Sure, but they were wrong. Most of the previous versions of the iPhone had a certain hype behind them and the sales always crushed.

The difference was, for the first time with iPhone 10, the demand was steady, at best, and the hype waned quickly. Another tepid phone release from Apple and I think it’s fair to question their continued innovative edge on the competition.

Innovation isn’t what floats Apple any longer, instead, it is the network effect of the entire platform integrating seamlessly. As long as the iPhone is on par with the competition (meaning it doesn’t need to be revolutionary), then Apple users will stick around because it is simply too difficult to switch.

Eventually, consumers will purchase the next iteration of the iPhone and really what Apple needs to try to do is shorten the length of time between upgrades.
