Crazy. I look at threads like this is the opposite unicorn of the "I just walked out the store and dropped it and everything shattered to pieces but they replaced it for free" - type experiences.
Every interaction I've had at the Apple Store has been largely ok - frustrating at times because of how busy it is. Recently my Apple Watch just stopped working. Had to wait a few days to get into the Apple Store but I showed up early and they got me in early. The entire unit was replaced.
What would that experience have been like with a Samsung watch?

I'm so tired of hearing this. If Jobs was still there we'd still be stuck in skeuomorphic design and wouldn't have the Apple Pencil. He was visionary and amazing, but this "Jobs would never do that thing I personally don't like" line of reasoning is becoming trite.

As soon as we tried the new keyboard and the gimmicky touchbar for a couple of days, we were done with it. For a very long time, under Steve's watch, Apple computers were massively superior to anything else on the market at any given price, so it's not a lack of talent that plagues Apple today, but a lack of vision and strong leadership. Evidently Tim Cook can't keep all the talents in Apple under control.
