Why? He’s still around. You can find him by his designirelly designed design company name “lovefrom,”. Such a designed piece of a designed design from a designer 🤷🏻♂️😂

Another Ive-Era Designer Leaves Apple

Apple pretty much became what Steve Jobs was afraid of it would become.
Ive lived by tunnel vision. He never understood why anyone would want something other than what he designed. He was a great designer, but designing for designs sake caused a lot of headaches for professional Mac users.
Things seem to be back on track for the most part; although I question some of Apple's decisions on base model specs and what is charged for upgrades; but I do not live in a base spec world, so all in all that does not affect me.

Or folding screens, or cars, or MacPro... Just to name a few. Or maybe a revisitation of some products with radical new designs and/or materials (re-create a titanium MBP? A small MacBook (no added name)).
Mac rumours posters: “who”?

Can't you afford any stand and place it where you frequent spot to lurk around? Mine always rest on a magsafe charging stand. I'll prefer better cameras than mere mortals who wear skinny jeans especially we're back to 1080p 30fps with spatial video.
I think that depends on how management acts.
1. There is the "****, sit down, and make it cheaper" of style management
2. There is the "We need 3 new designs, so lets send each of 3 teams off campus for 6 months" style of management
3. There is the "Our actions say we just don't care" style of management
4. There is the "OMG, we still have designers, we need to reduce that overhead" style of management
5. There is the "Lets just wait and see what Google does" style of management
6. There is the "Devices are so old fashioned, we need to do services and conquer the world" style of management
Feel free to vote on which one is todays Apple.
Well, whatever team or whoever is designing now has to fix the protrusions on the back of the iPhone, and remove the incredibly irritating cutouts on the iPhone and MacBooks.....Sheesh!
And don't get me started about the loss of versatility of the ports on the MacBook Pros. Might as well remove the headphone jack and claim "courage".

Actually, current Apple reuses a lot and I think you like thick and heavy over thin and light. I am not in favour of hardware obesity. Apple Ultra is not at all a huge improvement over Apple Watch. It is having more function and thereby a thicker design. Thicker from an already thick Apple Watch. Mac Studio is the direct descendent of the Trashcan MP, headless no internal expansion. The Trashcan MP and the iMac Pro would both fly with ASi inside. Where is the true MP instead of the Mac Studio Plus we got recently? The dongle free time coincide with USB-C being pandemic but I agree the HDMI makes good sense for a while but where is the Ethernet port in a PROfessional workstation??? Not dongle free to work as true workstation. Both the MBP and Air are "heavy" in their design despite the power efficient ASi. The original "Air" was a design classic while the current one will be forgotten after the next hardware update. Both laptops borrowed design from Powerbook Titanium. iPhones have good cameras are so heavy it is nearly a joke. The iMac and iPad still have unobtrusive designs but with current trends, not for long. No, the designs of Apple is going downhill. Where is the chins drop and I-just-want-to-have-that-device?
sounds like Mr. Ive and apple basically just diverted several hundred million dollars to his private interests for nothing

Guy definitely had a varied and… interesting… career up to now. I guess I see why working at a space habitation technology startup would appeal to him.
I agree, I rather the phone be fatter with no camera bump and a bigger longer lasting battery.
You actually shouldn't have heard of ANY Apple designers. The fact that you knew the name of one illustrates why he had to leave.
You know nothing about me, the clothes I wear, and the way I use my phone. Way to go, captain presumptuous.
No, Apple’s designers report to the COO. Not to sales.
Well, it’s unavoidable (not justifiable anyway) for fashion brands that want the lowest price and use contractors of contractors of contractors in Bangladesh. Since Apple has few big factories, they could probably get more control. Or just manufacture their phone anywhere human life is given value and meaning.
