Apple Focusing on These Eight New Low-Cost Devices in 2025

[FlyingDutch]

Not every post. I complimented Apple for the release of the macmini M4. Said it was value for money 😊.

How strange. In my opinion Mini M4 is not a good deal: 256 GB of storage are a shame on a €700+ device. You basically have to pay more than €900 for the 512 GB model (still too little to be satisfying).

If a multibillion company is getting lazy and only releases minimal incremental upgrades year after year and starting to neglect its hard- and software business it’s hard to start cheering. For me it’s hard to believe people still defend Apple on their offerings and practices. As a customer that raises questions to me 😊

Incremental upgrades are what is needed. The problem is with customers that want to upgrade EVERY year: it just makes no sense. If you wait a few years before upgrading (I would say 3 years for iPhone / Apple Watch, 4 years for iPad and 5+ years for Mac) than everything makes a lot of sense .
