Financials does not equal good UX design. The financial aruement is pointless , based on that Microsoft were doing a cracking job while releasing some awful software at the time. You are missing my point .

That was insightful

True Tone is poor on the x
Faceid - let’s see how this plays out
3D Touch - gimmick
Dual cameras - wake up, Apple cameras are on par with the competition
Stereo speakers - really ? This is important to you in a phone ....
What’s the rest of the list...?
Fact is Apple was ahead by a massive margin, 2017 it’s on par in some places, ahead in a few, And behind in others.
So, since you felt the need to share your knowledge, tell me what is special about wireless charging in late 2017? As this was the debate I was having with others? Let me guess the amazing AirPower mat that is not even reality yet and you will hand over about $150 where android guys pay $20. Fact is Apple should have come up with true wireless charging....nope they are last to the feature..... same implementation. How is that not copying the markert?
Your comments back & forth with Relentless Power was exhausting to read and borderline trollish. I’m reluctant to even respond to you but I will this once to spell it out for you, since you seemed to miss the point.
Everything I wrote in my post was 100% factually and logically true. All phone makers come out with cool new features. Sometimes it’s Samsung, sometimes it’s LG, often it’s Apple. And all phone makers eventually adopt some of the features that were first introduced by other manufacturers. That’s how the world works.
To pretend that somehow Apple is playing “catch-up” regarding features first introduced on other phones, and that other phonemakers are
not playing catch-up in regards to features that Apple has innovated first, is absolutely delusional. Everyone copies everyone.
Also, nobody really cares one iota about your opinions on the worthiness of innovations like TrueTone, FaceID, 3D Touch other than you. You are certainly entitled to those opinions, but don’t try to use them as some kind of half-cocked reasoning to make the case that Apple isn’t innovating. Personally, I love True Tone and wish I had it on all my devices, I find FaceID to be a vast improvement over TouchID in 90% of use cases, I use 3D Touch 20 times a day and am annoyed when using my iPad and it doesn’t have it, and I frequently enjoy the stereo speakers when watching a YouTube video or sharing media with someone else. But again, that’s just my experience. The fact that it is also the experience of 10’s of millions of other people who love and use those features everyday is what will compel other manufacturers to copy most, or all, of those iPhone features in the next 5 years.
So really, bro, no sure what your beef is. Is Apple late to the “so called” wireless charging game? Yes. They’ve been making aluminum backed phones for years and clearly haven’t prioritized it. It’s never bothered me. I have an iPhone X and will typically use almost any excuse to buy cool new tech. But even so, I still have not been able to come up with a reason why I’d wanna clutter up my desk and my home with a bunch of single use devices that take up 50 times more space than a lightning cord and can’t charge my phone while I’m using it.
I can’t figure out why you seem to have gotten so lathered up about “wireless” charging, or why you refuse accept that all manufacturers innovate some features themselves, and copy some from others. Maybe you’re a lobbyist for the inductive charging consortium? Or maybe you prioritize watching your phone charge on a $30 stand over using it while it charges, better sound, superior readability and color accuracy, improved ergonomics, and superior security. Your choice.
