It sure did. Best $19 I have ever spent. Impatiently waiting for Apple Cloth 2.0. Hopefully, it comes in different colors.

Branding...Branding...Branding...So many loyal and repeat customers on a monthly, daily, yearly basis create the success of Apple's performance. No other competing company within the tablet, phone, and wearables market can say that. The improvements I see that Apple needs to correct is smartspeaker and streaming services. iTunes/App Store is on fire.
I would like Apple to create an Apple Gaming Platform to rival PS5 and Xbox X. Add in Apple Car and AR/VR, Apple is headed to be a 4T company.

You’re right, it is branding. But it’s the quality of the product that follows the branding. People just don’t choose Apple ‘because it’s Apple’, they have to set the standard of putting out a quality product, and that’s a major contributor of what put Apple in this position.

It's actually not as simple as that. And even Apple isn't shrugging it off like you just did. They have shut down the plant for now and ordered a probe. Legally they may be off the hook, but for the consumers and shareholders they are actually complicit, and they are thus trying to make their manufacturing partner resolve this issue.
I need to find this reporter to get some lottery numbers to play
Doesn’t this just mean the stock market is incredibly overvalued?

Many companies will follow. Next up Amazon, Microsoft..
Sounds like CFO Luca Maestri and his team are going to need a whole bunch of new Mac Pros to run the numbers from now on.
Don’t feel bad about it - ever…particularly with some of the lemon level QC they have at times now
Why would anyone suffer? On the other hand, I'm really glad if someone else's enormous wealth makes your life a bit less miserable.
As an investor in Apple stock this is good news. But as a user I wonder how many corners they’ve cut in quality control for both hardware and software.
I’m on my second 13 Pro Max now and it still has the same unacceptable OLED panel defects. While iOS feels like it’s forever in beta with these bugs on a daily basis.

Can we stop feeling sorry for returning products regardless of how big or small the problem is now?
They probably saved a bit of money with those iPad mini 6 screens too

They did and Apple stopped the CSAM. Don’t think they ended up introducing it.
Wow Gruber yesterday pointed out how bad this call was in the NYT in 2012:
www.nytimes.com
“If Apple’s share price grew even 20 percent a year for the next decade, which is far below its current blistering pace, its $500 billion market capitalization would be more than $3 trillion by 2022. That is bigger than the 2011 gross domestic product of France or Brazil.”
Confronting a Law Of Limits (Published 2012)
Apple is so big that it’s running up against the law of large numbers, which suggests that the fast rise of its shares and earnings will slow.
“If Apple’s share price grew even 20 percent a year for the next decade, which is far below its current blistering pace, its $500 billion market capitalization would be more than $3 trillion by 2022. That is bigger than the 2011 gross domestic product of France or Brazil.”
Is that really the case, though? Because generally, I don’t think a lot of people do return Apple products, because they are very well constructed and have fewer hardware problems.
And even if I had to return a product, why would I feel sorry? (Rhetorical) Apple would encourage to do so to make the situation right one way or the other. And that’s another point they excel in, is customer service.
