Does Apple losing its “historically loyal customers” really matter though? It seems like they found 10,000 new customers for every “historically loyal” one they lost.
It’s really no more than an electric car. Buts what’s more interesting is the different viewpoints.
[doublepost=1519252602][/doublepost]Apple WAS the most innovative company. Now it is the slave of Wall Street earnings. The iPhone X is not a finished product but they were forced to launch it in time for Christmas 2017. The face recognition is not a secure system, the mic problems persist etc. Similarly, has there ever been a more bug ridden iOS than 11?
Fast Company today published its annual rankings of the 50 most innovative companies in the world, and this year, Apple is the number one company on the list for "delivering the future today."
Apple was picked for its impressive list of accomplishments in 2017, which included the iPhone X, the Apple Watch Series 3, ARKit, and its unique focus on hardware and software integration that sets it apart from its competitors. Apple designs its own chips that are optimized for its operating systems, resulting in performance that blows the competition away.
Apple also topped the list for its focus on privacy-based artificial intelligence advancements, its growing entertainment business, and its work to improve medical care with CareKit and ResearchKit. Its accomplishments boosted it up three spots from last year, when it was ranked the number four most valuable company in the 2017 list.
To create these rankings, Fast Company says that more than three dozen editors, reporters, and contributors surveyed thousands of companies to identify the most notable innovations of the year and trace their impact on businesses, industries, and the larger culture.
Other companies that made the top 10 list include Netflix, Square, Tencent, Amazon, Patagonia, CVS Health, The Washington Post, Spotify, and the NBA.
In addition to a master list, Fast Company publishes a breakdown of most innovative companies by sector. Apple also topped the list in the "Consumer Electronics" category, beating out companies like Amazon, Nintendo, and Sony.

Charging the Apple Pencil from the iPad for 30 seconds to get a decent charge is the very definition of innovation.I understand exactly what it means. You're telling me that ignoring product lines for years is innovation? Removing ports to make things asininely thin is innovation? Sneakily putting software on their os and claiming later it's a "feature" is innovation?
THIS
is "innovation"?
