Tim Cook and Jony Ive Talk Apple Campus 2, Apple Watch in New Interview

[doelcm82]

I have an apple watch and it sits in the drawer now. For me it just became to distracting with the notifications.
Also I prefer round face watches. I felt like a total dweeb wearing to be honest.

I have a round face watch (analog) that sits in a drawer now.

Can you stop walking around a building site and hurry up and release ios 9.3.

Am I the only one who reads the Jony Ive interview with the voice of him in my head? I can't help myself but to read it like in the phony product videos they show on every apple event.

Apart from that, I really like my apple watch sport. Still, as someone already mentioned: I have not seen it much in the wild.

That photo looks like they're about to drop some sick beats.

Reminds me that Tim Cook is a big U2 fan and it echos tones of the photos from their Joshua Tree album.

Apple's design partner for the campus, Norman Foster, was on hand to give some color on the building's iconic curved glass windows, which span nearly four miles. "The sheets of glass are so long, so clear, that you don't feel that there is a wall between you and the landscape," Foster said.

DESIGN PARTNER?! Norman Foster is the leading branded architect in the world and applie is a client. Apple didn't "partner" to design a building, unless all of the sudden they have expertise in the construction industry. Apple just provided the brief.

What a trendy, band-like picture.

These guys seriously think smartwatches are a hot thing? LOL, oh man. No wonder OS X has been on such a nose dive when it's taken the backseat. My god.

So Apple increasing PC (OS X) sales every year while everyone else sales are tanking is a nose dive. Not sure how you substantiate your claim?

straight outta cupertino

*edit* of course multiple people beat me to it. I'm going home

Can't wait for the album release party

The album it's called profit & thin

Although I think round (smart-)watches look far better than square ones, it's hard to make apps work well with a round screen.

Agree to disagree (hard to make apps work well on round screens).

300 species of trees...... That all look strangely like Joshua trees.

I don't like how Apple is taking Steve's legacy and shooting it in the face, but I guess that was Steve's last mistake: "Don't stop to consider what I would do."

Damn it, Steve. You shouldn't have said that.

Rant over and out.

I doubt Steve said that. It's a Cook fantasy that should be put to rest.

Hard hats? Hi-viz jackets? Haven't these guys heard of Health and Safety on a construction site?

 

[jonnysods]

Come on boys, hook me up with the Apple Watch 2. The temptation to get one now is high, but I want to wait to see all the improvements and new features. I'm ready!

Yo, Dre! I got something to say!!!

That article was (unsurprisingly, maybe - it's Vogue after all and I should have guessed it) very light on facts and news.

Actually, the monthly drone-videos seem to contain more info than this thing.
But it's the first time I ever visited the Vogue website, so one can say that the article actually fulfilled one purpose for Vogue: drive new visitors to its website.

 

[melendezest]

Probably about where it is now. But we'd be blaming Steve for everything we didn't like (the way we used to when he was alive).

Haha. Touche'

Seriously though, I doubt we'd be in the same place (for example, Scott Forstall would still be with the company).

But the complainin' would be the same, albeit from different camps.

As a Vogue subscriber I'm honestly surprised this happened.

I look at the quality of OS X itself, not their sales. Sales don't mean quality.

They should have built the space ship in India, and let Microsoft get all the H-1B visas.

"Apple's design partner for the campus, Norman Foster, was on hand to give some color"

Oh god, replacing 'detail' with 'color' is the new 'reaching out' instead of 'contacting'.

"If you need any more color, don't hesitate to reach out!"

<a single shot rings out>

 

[michaelant]

Not sure if I've read any Vogue before but man, that article sure was fluffy.

It really does though. I can't un-see it now.

The campus was actually first proposed by Steve Jobs on 18 April 2006:
