1: the introduction of something new
2: a new idea, method, or device
Inventing something new and innovation are synonyms.
You know what I thought was innovative back in the day from Apple? The jog dial on the iPod.
Now available in all good record shops…
Again, Amazon Go did not open to the public until 2018 and was open to employees in 2016. Prime Video was expanded in 2016, and did not add any countries in 2017.You can have that opinion, just know that I wholeheartedly disagree. To say that Amazon has done “very little innovation” arguing that Apple has is simply absurd. What has Apple done? Did they make the first OLED edge less phone? No. Did they make a breakthrough to integrate TouchID in the display? Nope. I guess they did turn their stores into “Town Centers” though. What a huge innovation that was.... And this article is more than about Amazon’s 2016 innovations, it discusses their Amazon Go store and other projects carrying over into 2017. It IS an accomplishment to make Prime Video available in almost all countries in the world.
I just never understood what the big deal is with charging port on the wireless mouse! Honestly. just don't get it.
I have had this thing for over a year. When the battery is low (which doesn't happen often) I just plug it on charge when I am not using it (and believe me, I can list plenty of occasions when I am not using it, like when I am sleeping for example) It is not like the battery all the sudden going to die without you being warned and giving you a plenty of chances to charge it!This wireless mouse is called wireless for a reason. If people want it to use it while connected to a wire, how about going for a cheaper wired option?
Good for Apple on sticking it's guns and not designing stuff based on what some clueless customers want.
They created products that made people say "Wow, that's cool". Now they make products that make people say "That looks the same as last year" right after a big YAWN or they don't make anything at all that people want/need.
honestly i would have put my money on elon musk.....apple and tim cook?? nawwww
It's about companies. Nowhere on the list are individuals, including CEOs.
That said, I would have ranked SpaceX higher than 14th.
If they had actually managed to ship the Model 3's as promised they would be up there, but the delays and low volumes mean they are in time out right now imo.ah ok, i can agree with that, also tesla not even in the top 50... asinine.

Why does Tesla deserve mention? Porsche had electric cars in 1904.ah ok, i can agree with that, also tesla not even in the top 50... asinine.
For a company that is supposedly so amazing at design, it's amazing how Apple can suck so bad at it sometimes.

Let's forgive them for the mouse, but one innovation I left out was from their most recent phone....
Look at this man... Like WHY?

It’s really no more than an electric car. Buts what’s more interesting is the different viewpoints.better yet, why don't they? Its not just an electric car.
So is a golf cart, I guess? Claiming Tesla isn't making innovations in the auto industry is being deliberately disingenuous.It’s really no more than an electric car. Buts what’s more interesting is the different viewpoints.![]()
Surely you must know a lot about design.
This attitude, in a nutshell, is exactly why Apple is losing many of its most historically loyal customers. They've cast the Mac line as an ugly stepsister to watches, pods, and phones. You are correct about Macs - they haven't been "innovative" in quite some time with software or hardware, unless you call removing ports and jacks an innovation. Perhaps, if 90% of Apple customers don't care about Macs anymore, a contest should be made for alternative names to sites like "Macrumors", "9to5Mac", and the like.A new Mac Pro doesn't matter to 90% of Apple users. Even if they did, I wouldn't call putting the latest off the shelf parts in a box and loading macOS on it as innovation. Airpods, iPad Pro, Apple Watch, and iPhone X are much more innovative than an old legacy desktop computer.
You said golf cart, not me. But to each their own. If I’m being deliberately disingenuous, you are giving them more credit than is due. But okay, this isnt about Tesla per se but to each their own opinion.So is a golf cart, I guess? Claiming Tesla isn't making innovations in the auto industry is being deliberately disingenuous.
