Joke's on me I guess because were a full fledged Apple family.

But, seriously. The iPhone? 2007? We're nearing 20 years. All it seems they do now is copy.

I guess this will be the official "iPhone Duo" thread then.

Looks great. Take my money.

They don't need to now. They've had the Apple cult eating from their hands for those decades, and those people will willingly buy almost anything Apple puts out.

Apple has never been innovative. They just make a good quality version of what other companies invent and then market the hell out of it.

when was the last time any company has come out with something innovative in the phone, PC, laptop, watch, headphones space?


I think the vision pro was a pretty cool product, but too early and bulky for people to buy in to that.

They are masters at forcing non-Apple users to subsidize their profits.

They’re very innovative forcing media/ai/social companies to charge Apple users more or less standard subscription rates while Apple takes 1/3 of the money. Out of all major platforms, I think only Elon has told them to piss off.

They are innovative at collecting a toll on credit card transactions and effectively forcing debit and cash purchasers at most businesses to pay 5% more for everything.

Their chips are top notch but that is to be expected when paying for the latest lithography and highest transistor counts. Not innovative.
