i've been waiting for a "PRO" model, but if the only thing pro about it is that it's larger and a chip upgrade that's not going to do it for me. they need to make something that "competes" with the surface even if they don't actually need to.
You realize that makes no sense at all.
i'm not looking to switch but if apple doesn't feel threatened by loss of customers they will never go for a big change. i'm going to stick with my ipad 3 until i see a big leap. how about an osx ipad? with a pressure sensitive pen to compete with the wacom digitizers??
But why? I don't get this Wacom non sense at all, if you need a Wacom go out and buy one. The iPad isn't meant to be a digitizer.
bigger flash going up to 256GB o even 512GB? running actual apps.
Well everybody needs more flash, can't argue with that. However what is this non sense about actual apps? Are you telling us that the App Store isn't actually selling us apps for our devices. If you mean more capable apps you should say so, however that is all about RAM which you seem to ignore here.
that's a pro model. one that professionals can use. give us some ports. usb, lightning and hd video out.
Ports are useless unless you can easily develop custom apps to use them. Apple would have to get rid of the MiFi program for such ports to be really useful.
they put out new products that the day you buy them samsung and htc already have phones with cutting edge features. i love the iphone 6 but is it really revolutionary??
It is a device for a mature market, a market Apple defined, there is no way it can be revolutionary. Really I don't understand this mentality, it is like expecting a revolutionary Mac every year. Not going to happen fella.
i'd say the software is more of an advance than the hardware. i contend that it's more the software than the hardware that keeps customers loyal. i'n have 100's if not 1000's of dollars in apps. so i'm never changing but it is frustrating!!!
Then you have no idea what is in an iPhone, it is literally bleeding edge technology. Wrapped inside that glass and aluminum is the worlds most advanced ARM processor, the most advanced Camera system in a cell phone and a bunch of other goodies that go to support your software. In fact I'd go so far as to say that with iOS devices Apple has never enjoyed the technological advantages it has with these products.
even the new watch. yes it's very nice, but does it blow the competition out of the water as far as what it does? it may look better but where are some of the rumored sensors medical professionals were anticipating??
Have you ever worked with the FDA? If so you would realize how foolish your statement is. No experience medical professional would have expected anything more than what Apple is shipping right now because they would realize that the paper work itself would take years to process.
why would you make it so it could work without the phone? i know, we carry our phones everywhere anyway but still...
Huh?
bottom line, apple knows it has a rather rabid customer base so they don't have to compete with samsung, htc, MS or anyone else. so it doesn't bother to do so.
You would have to be delusional to believe that.
be honest, some of the stuff those other companies have in their phone you want! so hey apple start making phones, tablets and watches that do everything and more than the competition, not less!!! siri could use a voice upgrade and why doesn't it learn like cortana supposedly does?? still just one speaker?? where is the saphire? no pen not pressure sensitivity, no pro app, still no multitasking.
Again I don't know where you get the idea that there are no pro apps for these devices. Every time I turn around I'm finding new apps that support Pro users.
apple is behind but as long as we keep buying new stuff every year they won't feel the need to inovate. why overtake the competition in that area when you can ad a couple bells of whistles each year, stay behind and still sell millions of you products the first day now, not the first weekend or month.
Your statements defy all sense of logic or cause and effect. First off they have innovated significantly with each iPhone releases and iOS release. If you are un willing to see this then you have a very serious problem and probably should be seeing a doctor or other professional. Everything about the iPhone 6's involves innovation. You have the A8 with which Apple lapped the rest of the industry. Within that A8 you have a new processor devoted to supporting the camera, improved ARM cores and improved GPUs. That is innovation just within the A8. Then you have a state of the art camera, new cell processors, the M8 and a bunch of other innovation outside of the A8. People are buying these cell phones in record quanities because they are state of the art and don't have anything that comes close competition wise.
i'm a bit of a hypocrite because i bought an iphone 6, but i'm not buying a new ipad til i see a real pro mode not just a bigger model!!!
Good for you! Honestly I don't think you even know what a Pro model would be if you saw it.
