I'd choose Cook's era iPhones over Job's in a heartbeat. Jobs is deservedly praised for his accomplishments, but he was stubborn and behind iPhone's greatest shortcomings... People forget Steve Jobs was against App Store, Apple Pencil, iPhones larger than 4 inches!!!, iPads with more than 9-ish inches, and shared Ive's obsession with thinness. We have gotten more iOS features with Cook too, Timmy wins.

what you expect a phone to do exactly? all phones basically will do the same thing.
For some reason Apple assumes „professionals“ don’t like colors and that color indicates = cheap. Kind of color…ims from them if you ask me
Sorry, but the Z Fold is not a failed concept. I think Samsung has won so far, it’s a niche category but I’m seeing more and more people with Z folds. A project manager at the same company where I work has one, and I see several from time to time on public transportation. It’s even Bill Gates main phone right now.
Also remember, Samsung is the one that pioneered phablets with the Note before Apple jumped in with the iPhone 6 Plus. In fact it was the pressure of the success from the Note lineup that forced Apple to finally make a bigger phone.
Apple realizes internally there is only so much you can do with the larger phablet design. It’s only a matter of time. They might wait until the 20th anniversary of the iPhone before they introduce their own.
Exactly, not failed at all, both my brother and father have the Z fold and they love it. I also agree with your comment about phablets, Samsung did it successfully first, Apple then entered the game with the Plus models with HUGE bezels and low screen to body ratio.
Every time I see my co-worker uses his, I feel a little jealous. I don’t think I want to switch though. I’m so invested in the Apple ecosystem although I recently got a Windows 11 laptop and I use Windows 10 at work everyday.
Generally I'd agree, the Lightning connector is more robust, but unless they expand the Lightning standard (which seems unlikely at this point for a variety of reasons), getting 8K video on and off the phone at anything like a reasonable speed would seem like reason enough to go with USB-C.
Good thing you could buy like 4 usb c cables for the price of one functioning mfi certified lightning cable
So if this is true, 2024 MacBook Pros will look like this?
true，a port 10 years old is durable enough. Also it have rounder edges so it’s easy to find the right position and plug in easier
The use of the term ‘accurate’ is debatable for an unreleased device. How can that be determined?
Otherwise anybody will praise Apple when they make the jump to usb c the year after - how convenient ist it now to carry just one cable for MacBook/iPad and iPhone and how much faster the data transfer then will be.
Not necessarily. I think Apple could design it so the top bezel area that hides the Face ID sensors could be surprisingly small.
I think I may not get the next iPhone until the iPhone 15 in 2023. At least there's a way better chance for USB Type C connector with way faster charging and data transfer rates. And possibly a new design with a true periscope telephone lens for up to 10 X optical zoom.
Ive had an XR for around three years and its notch doesn't bother me; this looks like a cool change with no real drawbacks for me so bring it on.
I expect all the notch apologists to set up a wallpaper that restores the notch look.
