Tesla Design Chief on Apple Products: 'There's Nothing to Look Forward To'
- Thread starter MacRumors

AirPower stands out because Apple never cancels products after they are announced. It's the exception that proves the rule. And they canceled it because it didn't meet their standards. Apple certainly could have, say, released something half-baked and called it a "beta"...
Tesla still hasn't shipped Cybertruck, Semi, Roadster, real FSD- and they've accepted money for those things! Don't even get started on the Model 2, Tesla ATV, Tesla bot (lol), solar roof. It's not remotely comparable.
The Model 3 is pretty sharp, it’s the stance that really sets it off.
But I’d settle for the Plaid by personal choice.
Apple innovated but most people are oblivious. The newest Apple innovation is a massive bluetooth mesh network that is supposed to be for Find My ... and Air Tags. In fact, the new network is scarfing up data on everyone and their locations constantly. You can't turn off this network with the Bluetooth off switch either. Apple invented the greatest privacy threat in the history of the world. By the way, the new mesh network reaches out 200 feet from every iphone.
Not like the cell service your phone gets is any worse, and they actually sell your data.
Fair criticism, but what do you expect for super mature product categories?
Not sure I'd equate market cap or corporate profits to innovative products, but yeah, this guy doesn't have much of a leg to stand on.Wow! Is this guy really calling out Apple like that? Is this a joke?
Trending at 2.8+ Trillion dollars in the market today. This is Apple. Trust and believe Apple has been delivering ground break products. So, yes, there is something to look forward to. All eyes are on iPhone 14

On the other hand, I doubt Tim Cook could ever get his board of directors to rubber stamp a bailout of the failing solar roof company he owned with his cousins.
Apple's descended into the darker depths of "form follows function." <shudder>
I'm grateful for Jonny Ive but feel that without Steve, things went in a much too slick, dainty direction. Apple has finally recovered from a family of hardware crippled (yes, crippled) by aesthetic decisions that trumped usability, especially for professionals.

Considering the guy doesn't work for SpaceX, find it funny you now blasting a company he has no affiliation with.
The solar storm was more severe than predicted. The starlink satellites were in a vulnerable position given they just launched and didn't even have a chance to raise their obit to the intended operational location.
If you actually feel like learning something.....
The Starlink satellites will not be space junk. The orbit they were inserted into will naturally lead the satellites to reenter the atmosphere. Some of them already have......
This is by design so any malfunctioning starlink satellite will reenter within a few days and not end up as space junk.
As for the Roadster, something would have ended up as space junk either way since it was a test launch of the Falcon Heavy. If it wasn't a car, it would have been a block of cement to simulate the mass of an actual payload. Mass simulators are used on test launches of new launch vehicles.

Apple has been doing very well. They have been updating their product line and the revenue for the services has been up. So yeah, there is a lot to look forward to it. That market cap is just a prime example of how big Apple has become.
All 👀 on Apple to hit 3 Trillion dollar mark.
Hard to comment on this one.
On one hand a guy that helps design customer applicable solutions with very modern tech and on the other hand a company with long tradition in same field that from design standpoint (we're talking DESIGN here) is pretty much unchanged for past 15 years.
My 14" is first thing I really looked forward to from apple for yeeeeacrs and that's because of the chip not its design that got my belly tingling.

Right? Elon said the Tesla rejects end up at Apple.
more free advertising for Tesla who pays $0 for it. Thanks again MacRumors.

In 2007, the same thing was said about the almighty iPhone because companies like Blackberry, Nokia were dominating the smartphone industry. Fast forward it today it’s a different story.
The irritating thing about this comment is that it's farging boring as farg. I get the sentiment, but at the same time it's a bit pathetic coming from someone in EVs. I mean, how could Apple just release a "continuation" of what they've been doing in EVs ffs??? ?
He's just regurgitating the same tired commentary (i.e., a "continuation" of a tech-world cliche). Also, where Apple has generally been most disruptive in the past is precisely when they release their take on existing tech. That's kinda their "thing", and they do it really well. (And anyone who thinks that's nothing—or that it's somehow cheating—is clueless about tech.... at least from a business perspective, if not an academic one.)
